HILLTOPPERS
 WILL TRAVEL
 TO WRANCELL
Southeastern Alaska Grown Be Contested by Peters
 bury and Locals

The Juneau High School baske. ball five, champions of Gastinear Channel and of the northern divi sion of Southeastern Alaska, vii sail south on February 13 of ths..:' way to W.angell where they will play thY1a game series with Petersburg, Southern D.Tisior winner, 1t was anno12eed today by Supt. ". k. f.e,lc-.
 For more than one week tho local school and Petersburg hava been in communication to de eide on the time and place for the playoff to decide the cham. pionship of the boys team oi Southeastern Alaska.
 A wire received yesterday by Supt. Keller gave guarantee of s200, the highest offered for tha
 series, and this was accepted. as well as the playing dates of 1 March Il, 15 and I6. All three games will be played on the high school floor in Wrangell..
 As the Petersburg boys have played several times this year on the Wrangell floor, the locals will enter the series under slight handicap, but the ability they have displayed the last several weeks give them fine chance to cop the title.
 Coach II. E. Waid and seven men will make the trip. Barring injuries 10 his men before the sailing date, the six regulars, J. Crme and F. Orme, forwards. Livie, center and forward, Neil son. center, and Burke and Berg gren, guards, are practically as sured of being in the squad. One more man will be chosen from the list of substitutes, but has not yet been named.
 To help make some of the ex- penses of the trip, the Hilltoppers contemplate playing the Douglas All-Stars in the High School gym Thursday evening. Nothing defin- ite has been arranged for the game, but it is hoped the Island outfit will cross the Channel on the date named, Supt. Keller said today.

as long as they can remember but none of them are positive just how long, although they are certain it has been there since before 1915. Different evidence, brought to light through the Customs records, old timers. and those who, claim they put the boat on the beach. would defin- itely set the date as somewhere between 1900 and 192O.s
 {. One stumbling block appears. The boat is believed to be the Standard II. but although her beam numbers correspond with those on the Customs record, the tonnage does not check up. Pos sibly the boat now on the beach is a different one than the old timers remember.

BANCROFT TO AID WILBERT ROBINSON
 IN TENANT RACE

NEW YORK, March 5-.Beau- ty" he was nicknamed years ago. and Beauty" he still is. Dave Bancroft, one of the best in the shortstepping line who ever came down the pike, will play with the Dodgers this year, and in the eyes of Wilbert Robinson, the Dodger boss, Banny looms as the same old Beauty" Uncle Robbie is counting on Bancroft to plug up the shortstop hole, steady down the youngsters and act as right-hand man in general.
 Bancroft is nearly thirty-six, old as baseball players go. but there will be far worse shortstops play. ing regularly in ns the National League this season, and many easier chances getting away than Dave comes up with.

 Arguments were opened when two well known Juneau men placed bet on the length of time the ship has been on the beach. One declared the boat has been there since 1915 and the other says it has not been there that long.
 Many of Juneau's old timers dee)are the boat has been there
