ALASKA MINERAL
 PRODUCTION 1928

ConClnueQ rom PaYe One ,. the Premier Coal Mining Co.,, and in the Healy River valley the Suntrana mine of the Healy River Corporation.
 During the year considerable activity was shown in the de- yelopment of coal beds that have long been known on Ad- niralty Island, in southeastern Alaska. This work was done at the property of the Admiralty island Coal Co.,, on Kanalku Bay, and several shipments of coal were sent to Juneau and nearby markets.
 All the petroleum produced n Alaska in 1928 continued to come from the wells of the Chilkat Oil Co.,, near Katalla, where, in addition to the oil wells, the company operates a mall refinery.
 The only other place in Alas "a where drilling for oil was n progress during the year was a few miles west of Chick lloon, where the Peterson Oil Association continued work throughout most of the open ;eason. The we'll is said to nave given strong showings of gas, but as the geologic form ations it penetrates consists of members of the coal series here is strong probability that this gas comes from them.
 In addition to the mineral products already mentioned, Alaska also produced during 1928 some lead, marble, lime stone, tin, and platinum. The aggregate value of these min- erals, with that of petroleum, was $356, 1000. Most of the lead came as a by-product from the gold ores of the Alaska Juneau mine, and the increased pro- 1uction of those ores resulted n the recovery of a greater amount of lead also.
 An increasing amount of lead is also recovered from the sil- ver-lead ores of the Hyder dis trict.
 The output of marble in 1928 came as heretofore entirely from the quarries of the Yer mont Marble Co.,, on Prince of Wales Island, in southeastern Alaska. The mining of certain limestone deposits on Dall 1s- land, in southeastern Alaska, by the Pacific Cement Co.,, as source of one of the constit- uents of its cement, marks the beginning of a new enterprise whose development should ma terially increase the mineral production from that part of the territory.
 The tin ore was derived prin- cipally from placers near York, in Seward Peninsula, but small amounts were re- covered from placers in the Hot Springs district of the Yukon-Tanana region.
 The platinum metals came principally from placers in the eastern part of Seward Penin- sula and in the Goodnews Bay district at the mouth of the Kuskokwim River. The mine of the Alaska Palladium Go. on Kasaan Peninsula, in south eastern Alaska, which for 8 number of years had been a large producer of platinum metals and the only one in which these metals were re- covered from lodes, was closed throughout the year.

Either the quality Of their golf IS
unusually good or their handicaps are
too high II matched, II matched
against par for the two courses. for
competitors In two golf events around
Washington yesterday succeeded in
RELOCATING par far to the rear.
At the Chevy Chase Club. which
holds a sweepstakes event nearly every
Saturday afternoon. A. S. Merrill. who
plays with a handicap of ID strokes,
registered a score of 30. to give him
a net of 81, against a par OF SO, and
Spread-eagle the field by several strokes.
At the Washington Golf and Country
Club, in the play-off of a four cornercd
tie for a set Of matched clubs originally
played for on July 4, Erwin P. Hair was
up on par at the end of the sixteenth
hole, aided by handicap Of IL strokes,
and because none of the other COMPETE
tors in the quadruple tie had chance
to catch him. the match was declared
won by Hair at the sixteenth.
Rear Admiral Charles B. McVay was
in second place at Chevy Chase with
a card of 84-l4-70, while another naval
officer, Rear Admiral M. M. Taylor,
was in third place with s4-l2-72.

Hip Pivot Minus
On Pitch Shot
BY SOL METZGER.

Chick Fraser takes his club back
slow for a pitch. keeping the club
head low to the ground. His own
head is anchored. 1t isn't permitted
to move all through the stroke,
The arms alone figure in the back
swing, the left keeping straight and
controlling IL. Note how his left
turns or rolls in its shoulder socket.
This brings the back of his left
hand into full view and, what's i'm
portant, opens the face of his club.
His weight now begins shifting
from his left to right leg. 1t
couldn't do otherwise unless he made
himself rigid. The mere swing
back Of his arms causes this transfer
of weight Don't worry about 1t.
II you remain relaxed it will take
care of itself.
While the weight so transfers
note there LIS no hip pivot. There
never is on pitch. The arms and
wrists do the Job. Even the left
heel remains on the ground through

BROOKE PUTS IN A BRIEF
FOR CROSS-HANDED GOLF

Why is it. asks E. p. Brooke of Wash
ington, that golf cannot be played as
we'll cross-handed as in the orthodox
manner with the right hand below the
left on the shaft? Brooke puts cross
handed, and his accuracy on the green
has become by-word at Washing
ton, where many of the regulars have
paid and PAID to see Eddie run them
down with his Schenectady putter.
He cites Bill di Este of Indian Spring
as one of the outstanding examples Of
a cross-handed player who has gone
somewhere with an unorthodox style.
Brooke claims that greater power can
be put into the long shots by the cross
handed method. but that accuracy may
be lacking which would be gained by
the proper use of the guiding right hand
as in the customary grip.

England won last year because Oh

passing skill of its team in doubles play.
The master minds behind the present
campaign are none too confident tnat
the two Helens, both of whom were on
Sthe team last year. will be able to turn
back the British invasion unaided.
Each Has Three Victories.
The current series promises to hold
more interest than any other in the last
three or four years as each nation mas

trophy vxs placed in competition IN
1928. and the winner at Forest HIS

Calling upon its reserves to provide

duce the strongest possible partners for.
the two Helens in doubles. the United
States either can call upon the old
guard which includes such veterans as
Mrs. Molla Mallory and Eleanor GoSs,
or turn to its up-and-coming young girls
for assistance. It now looks as though
the latter course will be followed.
Although Miss GosS has been playing
sterling tennis in this country Of late,
the n-playing captain of last years
team is exceedingly unlikely to be called
upon in an active role this season, as Ii

successful in her two appearances in

One of the comparative kids" who
may get the call is that dainty and
promising miss. Nudge" Gladman, o
student at the University of Southern
California and a player who appears
ready for her baptism of international
fire. 1t is not improbable that she will
be called upon to play the odd singles
match.
Marjorie Morrill, of Dedham, Mass
No. in the national ranking, notch
ahead of Miss Gladman-is another
likely candidate for this assignment.
Edith Cross of San Francisco proved
something Of a disappointment in Eu-
ropean play. but it is probable that she
will be teamed with Miss Wills in dou-
bles. nevertheless. The two Helens. the
keenest of rivals, have never played to-
gether as partners and that feat prob.
ably will not be achieved this time.
Considerable thought will be used in
picking the doubles teams. as 1t is in
this department that the British held
| the edge which enabled them to win
last year.
