NEW YORK, July 2.--After
watching the scoreboard for
the last couple Of days, some
of the long distance experts
around here seem to have ar,
rived at the conclusion today
that maybe the Philadelphia
Athletics won the American
League pennant too soon.
That liz to say, they figure that
the Athletics. having won the pen.
nant as early as June, won't be
able to keep it won. Any profess
sional gambler will tell you what
this means. Never give sucker
an even break, might be another
way Of saying 1t.
The Athletics haven't been play
ing it that way during recent days,
with the result that the Yankees
have cut ~ games into the rival
lead since the last weekend and
some of the local hopefuls have ac-
copied the incident az evidence that
the long-awaited Philadelphia slump
| is at hand.
This writer has believed all
along that, as impending PEN
nant winners, the Athletics are
due, But 80 Is the rent on the
first of the month and IL Isn't
always paid.
! The point is that. this time last
! year. the Yankees were rolling
along, just rolling along, 1914 games
| In front: vet September saw them
tcaught and passed, and while they
came again TO win the pennant, /
wouldn't recommend that the Ath-
| letfcs play the system for a repeat.
They are good hail club-a
scout who saw them beat the Yanks
here went for them 100 per cent
| in his report to a National League
| contender--and they have plenty
of fight this year, but no other
club in baseball can touch the
Yankees in one respect, namely,
they don't know when they are
outcIassed.
You beat them; they don't be-
iieve it. That Is a formula for sue
cess that is not mentioned in inter-
views which prattle of hard work
and the help of the little woman.
| Old Mike Murphy, the great trainer,
called It another way when he told
a Pennsylvania football team that
you can't beat IL men who won't
! be beaten"
You can, AZ 3 matter Of fact,
but It takes you all day Ii it
concerns a single ball game, or
all season, IL 1t Is q pennant
race, or all your life, II it i
happens to be . business rivalry.
The Yanks are like that. The
other fellow may be better. but
they insist upon him proving 1t.
It Is hard to read club like
| that out OF a pennant with so per
cent of the season yet to be played
and it must be admitted that things
are looking up in their camp with
an important invasion of the west
soon to come. I will admit that,
two weeks ago, thought the outfit
was due to be out-finished for
second place by either the Browns
or the Tigers.
Now, with Ruth hitting, Pennoek
starting to pitch, and Cy Moore Civ
ing some evidence of a regeneration,
I'm not so downright certain that
they will be out-finished for first
place.
1t would be q miracle, and
man can get rich betting against
those things.
The Athletics are nine games In
front with SO to play; even the
Browns top the champions by sin
gle game today. But with a die
hard club like this chasing them in,
the Athletics can do only one thing
worse than lose a ball game. And
that is to lose two ball games.

 Thus the trapping business has reached the dignity of other lines of commercial endeayor, and with the coming of youth has come a spirit calculated to remove much of the stigma that was once attached to the bearded recluse of the will .derness.
 It is estimated that pelts of the value of a quarter million dollars pass thru Anchorage annually, and the influence of this industry is felt in almost every line of business.
 With a live, energetic organiza- Ition, the Cook Inlet Trappers & Game Protection Association, hope to make their presence felt with re- spect to the rules and regulations leffecting their business.

ANCHORAGE SHOW WILL

"AllonS, mes enfants" shouted Maurice L. Sharp. president of the Anchoraoe Shrine Club. as he stumbled off Saturdays train, in greetino to his many local friends. Then came hoarsely: Les Americaines Les Anglais! vivo Ia Froncei" About this time Merry gained full control of his SenseS-he had just been awaken ed from sound sleep-and realized he was leading a Shrine squad and was not back in the trenches during that argument about 10 years ago.
 MT. Sharp. as is known, is again the ring-leader of a home-talent production which will presented shortly in that citv and. provid- ing the Seward Bills Club see their way clear. the show will be brought to Seward the latter part of this month for one perfor- nance. And when it comes" :" Sharp added. "vou folks here night as well declare a Roman holiday for all that will be need ed flo make it better will be to toss a counleof victims into the lions den"
 LATER: It is just made known that the Seward Bills Club is bringing this performance to Se- ward and it will be presented Saturday night. August 31, prooa- bly in Dreamland Hall.

each member expressed his opinion as to the time. By these months it is hoped to discourage the practice of periodical trappers, who have hitherto invaded the lines of those who have established cabins and trap regularly, and of whom much complaint has been voiced with re- spect to abuses of the fur regula tions, especially providing an agen- cy for the bootlegging of pelts talk en during closed seasons. It is be- lieved that all complaints will be removed and that it will be possible to trap all varieties of fur, until there is evidence of decimation to the danger point, when 1t will be necessary to close certain districts to all trapping for a reasonable period.
 Of the Is members out of mem bership of 200 who attended the meeting, only three might be said to have passed their 10th year. It developed that many of the mem bers have their wives with them on the trap lines, have established cosy little homes, with gardens and flowers, and have in turn establish ed new bases of civilization in the wilderness. In addition, nearly every trapper of the upper Cook Inlet country, either owns a gas boat or an outboard motor craft,
