'BIG CONTRAST IN
 INfIHD STRENGTH
Yankees Have Heaviest Hitting
 Array of Four Teams

New York, Sept. 75 @HThe in- held strength or weakness of the four clubs still in the thick of the major league pennant battles offers . wide range of contrast in figuring the Worlds Series dope.
 The Yankees have the heaviest hitting array of the lot. and the most experienced. The Giants have the fastest and youngest set of inner workers. a brilliant quartet that av- erages only 25 years and hits for 1908. The Athletics are another sea soned group, with young firebrand in Jimmy Foxx. The Cardinals rely chiefly on the twin stars of the right side, Bottomley and Frisch.
 On paper. the Yankees. averaging .S20 at bat. present the most for midable array. but their defense has been weakened by the removal of Joe Dugan and the long absence of Tony Lazzeri, now back at his post but not up to his 1927 form. The substitution of Gene Robertson for Dugan at third adds more punch to the quartet, all the other members of which are we'll over the 300 mark. but Jumping Joe's skill in the field is missed.
 Much of the late season spurt of the Athletes was due to the infield shift that first put the hard-hitting Is.xy op tbjrd hooo than moved him to first, with the veteran Jimmy Dykes at the far corner. Bishop and Boley form great combination around second base while Max has taken d new lease of life at bat.
 There isn't a snappier combina- tion to watch in either league than the intield quartet of the Giants. no matter whether Andy Reese or Andy Cohen is at second base Terry. AL ways hard sticker, has developed into one of the games best first basemen. while Jackson and Lind strom present a stonewall defense on the left side. There is dash and fir in this quartet with Lindstrom probably the ranking third-sacker Of the senior circuit now, q smoother workman than even the famous Pie Traynor. Pirate captain.
 The Cardinal inlield, oldest and weakest hitting of the four now in the limelight, has not been together long enough to function as smoothly as any of the others. It has the most cnactacular fielding SecOnd-SaCk in Frisch, whose batting has fallen off, and the leagues leading cleanup slugger in first baseman Jim Bot tomley. But the old warhorse, Rab- bit Maranville, can't scoop 'em up at short the way Tommy Thevenow did in 1926 before a broken leg stop ped his progress. Andy High has re- placed Lester Bell at third and is doing nicely at it, but he doesn't compare with Lindstrom in any de- partment of the game.

 HERE 0N SUNDAY
Park City Team to Tackle Nut meSs at Willow Brook Park

The Nutmeg A. c. football team will play its second game of the season Sunday afternoon at Willow Brook park when the All-Bridgeport team comes here in the first inva- sion of the present season. Ths Nutmegs last Sunday, in the initial start of the year. defeated the strong Stonewalls of Holyoke by a to 0 score.
 The opposition to be offered the locals this coming Sunday will be entirely different from that given the team last Sunday. Bridgeport has team that is stronger and faster than last year and trouble looms on the horizon for the New Britain eleven.
 Despite the fact that the initial game of the year showed the locals to be not entirely organizing or in the best of form. the team showed plenty of strength in making first downs through the Holyoke line. The deciding punch happened to be missing. This weakness has been plugged up this week with the ad- dition of new backfield man from Torrington. He is reported to be q great passer and fast man.
 - Ralph Buckley. Meriden star, will probably be used as q halfback for the rest of the season. He was placed ill quarterback for a time last Sunday. but his best efforts were kept under cover. Radzewich will probably call the signals Eext Sunday and act as safety man. This shift is thought to be a move to give the home club better offense and de- fense.
 The contest Sunday afternoon will start promptly at 2:15 o'clock. Prac- iically the same lineup as started last Sunday will be used again this week.

 TRIP TO ALASKA
SENATOR J. H. STEWART, AFTER VISIT, TELLS OF sEWARD's
 SHARP BARGAIN

WICHITA, Kas.,- The Wichita Eagle, Sunday Magazine, recently pub lished the following splendid article on Senator J. H. Stewart who will be recalled by numerous Alaskans during bis visit here last summer The arti cle follows:
 |. J. H. Stewart recently returned to his work in the First National bank after a vacation he and Mrs. Stewart spent in Alaska. We went for both recreation and education," says MT. Stewart, "and our trip was just that. We enjoyed the recreation of trip in the North. The education was such that returned from my trip with a much higher opinion of both Alaska and Kansas than I have heretofore had, and Wichita looks better to me than any other city saw as perma- nent place of residence"
 Before my trip" says Mr. Stewart, T thought of Alaska as small color ed. place qn the map. Actually ! found it fo be made up of thousands of beautiful islands, large slice of mainlaid seven and half times the size of Kansas with a population of about half that of Sedgwick county. many imposing mountains, waterfalls and glaciers, many beautiful stretches of timber and immense fishing re- sources"
 One of the unusual experiences MT. and Mrs. Stewart had was when they attended church in Seward. "We ar

met here in Wichita. Third was Mrs. Bertha Sumpter of Argonia, Kan, and fourth Miss Slavins of Glen Elder. The congregation, the only one in Seward with it's 800 population, was IT. Of these IT, ten were tourists. The Methodist church had a member ship of three, including the ministers wife who was Presbyterian"
 'sWe found many fine vegetables grown in Alaska. Their growth is un- believably rapid in that climate. The climate varies from regions where the temperature drops as low as 75 de- grees below zero in winter to other localities where the Japanese current keeps the temperature moderated so it seldom reaches zero.
 1t seems most of the Americans in Alaska are there temporarily, expect ing to come back to the states when their fortunes are made. Many of them are mineral prospectors.
 "The largest town we visited is Ket- chikan, abut 4,000 population. Others are the Capital, Juneau, about 5000; Sitka, the old Russian Capital, 500; ] Wrangell, 800; Skagway, 1000; Ken necott, 800; Haynes, including the l army post, 500; Petersburg, 1900; Anchorage, 2,ooe; Seward, the start ing, place of the U. 8. Government R. R., 800; Cordova, the starting point of l the railroad to the Kennecott coppeRh mine about 1000; Valdez, 500. These towns with Nome, 2,oo0, and Fair 1 banks, 2,500, make up the principal 1 towns. We did not visit Nome or Fairbanks. The latter is the only place in Alaska enjoying a boom. It is caused by the development of a big hydraulic placer mining outfit, which is said to be expending four million | dollars for work and machinery, ex- pecting to realize fifteen million dol lars from the enterprise. All the towns named are on the Coast, save Fair banks, and nearly all are in 1ocatione seemingly impossible to build a town.
 Usually they are partly on rock shelf blasted out of mountain and ] the rest on piling with the ocean un-
