ARMY AND NAVY
 BOUT LINED UP
Battling Seibert to Meet Man from Navy Mappers
 Here on July }

Battling" Seibert, Chilkoot Bar racks scrapper, will represent the Army end of an Army and Navy argument in the semi-final event on the American Legion Smoker card July 3, it was announced today by Matchmaker Tom Shearer. The Navy's representative is mem Der of the Air Mapping Expedition now at Petersburg which will move here in the near future. R
 Shearer wired Commander Rad ford early this week asking if he had a man to meet Siebert. Today he received reply saying the map pers have two or three good men and one of them, whose name was not given, had claimed the soldier battler as his meat. @
 This match will be semi final, but not the only one. Shearer has another bout of equal quality lined up and will stage not one but two semi-finals. The battlers will get the same money and the fans can take their choice as to which set is the better.
 The main go between Collier and Soldier Olson is causing some local conversation with the Collier ad- herents talking loudest. Olson is a newcomer in this part of the country. He made a good reputa- ton in the Philippines, but that's a long distance away and Golfers rep was earned here. Uncle Sans khaki wearers have chance to open a little mint of their own If their battler is as good as he is claimed to be, because the Collier packers talk sounds like real con- versation.

ISLANDERS AND
 MOOSE TO PLAY
Douglas and Moose Slated to Meet at City Park
 Sunday Afternoon

The Moose and Douglas clubs, leading contenders for pennant honors in the Gastineau Channel League, are slated to come together at City Park Sunday at 2:30 pm. It is one of those games termed crucial"
 If the Islanders can win, it will be almost impossible to head them off from winning the championship of the first half of the schedule. A victory would give them five games won without single loss and only four more games to play. The Moose have played six games and have but three more to play in cluding tomorrow's. They have won four. And it is the only club that seems to have a chance to beat out the Islanders.
 Douglas is expected to start Man ming who has had a long rest. The Paps bably will use Pete Schmitz.

 Start Monday A. M.

The Bureau of Information of the Chamber of Commerce will be opened next Monday morning, it was announced today. It will be in charge of Miss Mildred Abra- hansen.
 The Bureau is housed in a new one-room building which has just been completed. It is located on Front Street adjoining the Irros Company and fronting the I. Gold stein garages. The center garage room has been utilized as the rear of the bureau room.
 It is modified box car type with an arched roof. It is a neat struc- ture of attractive appearance. It has plenty of plate glass windows giving ample light. Signs on glass will be suspended in them, bearing the legend of the Chamber.
