Douglas Has Opportunity to Take Lead Tn Race

Leadership in the c a S ii n Il Channel League is at stake in the game scheduled tonight at City Park between Douglas and the Elks. Whatever the outcome, the tie which exists between the Is- flanders and Moose for first place will be broken, unless, of course, it should be a draw battle.
 The Islanders, if they win, move ahead of the Paps by half-game, and losing, drop behind them by the same margin. The Scotch men, headed by Head Man Bonner, are coming across the Channel with the idea of annexing.
 When the Bills and Islanders met on the. Island grounds recently, Manning and Koski staged a pret- ty pitchers battle. Both have had long rests and should repeat to- night. It should be real base ball game.

"Shag," Latest Dance,
 Is Only for Energetic

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va, Aug. l. Sun back bathing suits and beach pajamas is the costume, the sands are the dance floor, and the fastest time known to the terpsichorean art, the tempo for the shag' is the latest test for the energy of summer colonists.
 While classified as a dance, the "shag" essentially requires energy rather than grace. It apparently is the embodiment of all the move ments of the Highland fling and the late Charleston. Unlike the Charleston, the feet Of the dancers are not lifted.

HITTING 300
 NOT so BAD

NEW YORK, Aug. 1. 1.-Regardless of whether it is a livelier ball, weak CT pitching or stronger batsmen, the number of 300 hitters in the majors has increased almost beyond bounds in the past decade.
 In 1918 only IA National league players and 13 American league players finished with batting records of 300 or better.
 Six years later the Nationals had 41 hitters and the Americans 30 in the 300 class.
 Tn 1928 there were AT in the Ma tional and 50 in the American.
 The averages for the first half of the 1928 season showed the Ma tional had 69 and the American 52 hitters rapping the ball at the rate of 300 or better.
 Back in 1918 the 300 hitters in- cluded Zach Wheat, Ed Rousch, Heinie Groh, Charlie Hollocher, Bill ly Southworth, Jake Daubert, Ross
 
 Young and Hal Chase. The last named, a mighty good batsman, just managed to get into what for merly was called the select class with an average of .301.
 In the American league at this time were such sluggers as Ty Cobb, Joe Jackson, George Burns, Jacques Fournier, eorge Sisler Bob Bescher, Iris Speaker, Home Run" Baker, Wally Pipp, George Weaver and Babe Ruth.
 Babe Ruth was just beginning to shine as a hard hitter and in 95 games had record of an even 300 Until the Bambino began his as- sault on home run records in 1919 when he made 29, the slugger who accumulated between 20 and 25 cir cult blows in a season was regarded as having done pretty well. During the last decade one or nfore play CTS every season has bettered 25 Ruth holding the record with 60.

'LAURITS C.. Petersen

Late is better than never, we say.
! have here translated, into our COM
mon public language, what I said at
his bier in his home before we carried
it over to the church for the funeral
service, for the readers of the Askov
American.
The man around whose bier we are
here gathered, for with psalms and
words of memory to follow him to his
grave, he will be deeply missed, espec-
tally in his home. but also near and
far outside of his home.
He received as cradlegift talent and
faculty for personal activity for mat
terS of heart-and spirit life, but also
for matters of the hand, and it was
his good fortune that he had his in
herited talent and faculty for personal
activity developed during his youth
and manhood to his own personal
benefit, but also as a good and able
servant for many of his fellowmen.
When we seek for the cause and
reason why his inherited talent and
faculty for personal activity developed
to be such a blessing to himself and
others, we will have to take into our
consideration that he already in his
early youth became wide awake con-
scious. of what great life blessing
it is for person to be tied with the
sacred tie of consanguinity to a people
whom God has given such a wonderful
history, his Danish nationality feeling
became in him an ever flowing cur
rent of inspiration for his inherited
talent and faculty for personal activ-
ity. He was deeply convinced that as
such only could he render 100 per cent
service as an American citizen. We
also have to take into our consider
came deeply conscious in his relation
to Jesus Christ and to His work in His
church, and the influence of our HUI
mainly Savior was in deep harmony
with his Danish nationality feeling, a
constantly regenerating and renewing
force in his inherited talent and facul-
ty for personal activity. 1t was his
serious conviction that only as a
Christian man could he render 100
per cent service as an American citi-
zen.
Yes, his Danish nationality feeling
and his sincere life union with Jesus
Christ always idealized his talent and
faculty for personal activity, always
gave him a higher, deeper, nobler,
and richer aim in all his activities,
always inspired him to take his stand
in the front line of all life movements
that he connected himself with. He

was, with his talents and faculty for
personal activity thus idealized, a
good son, a good brother, a good hus-
band, a good father, a good member
of any business and movement he as
sociated himself with, and a good
American citizen.
Deeply serious-minded as he was,
he no doubt often in quiet and SOL
emn moments with sadness acknow-
lodged that it costs more than we
beforehand realize, to be true to God
in all our living-but he always rail-
lied himself and thankfully and joy
fully sang: 1t never, never costs too
much to live a heaven-minded Christ
ian sOul-life; it never, never costs too
much for us, in life-union with our
Savior, to live us through the power
of sin, death and the devil, into the
glories of a spiritual, intellectual and
bodily everlasting human life!
His memory be cherished and hon
