BASEBALL
TRADES SLATED

NEW YORK. Feb. Baseball's
moneyed interests will make their
last bid for headlines tomorrow
when the National League moguls
meet in a 24.hour session at the
Waldorf-the last meeting of the
year. and the last one probably
ever to be held in the historic old
building that has seen many ham,
mere and tong baseball battles.
There's nothing much to be
accomplished at the meeting.
The schedule probably will be
officially approved, there will be
some little discussion Of this
and that. and then the stage
viii be cleared for the business
that begins q week later In 10
training camps through the
South.
The possibilities of trades are al
most limitless, but the probabilities
OF trades are almost nil. About the
only looming deal at this moment
is a bit of pickering between the
Boston Braves and the Reds. and
another between the Braves and
the Cubs.
Judge Fuchs is anxious to grab
off George Kelley to complete his
all-Irish infield, and he Is equally
anxious TO peddle Lester Bell to the
Cubs for money. marbles, players
or what have you?
Now that Joe Dugan seems
satisfied with his Braves berth,
there Il no further need Of
Lingering Lester, who last year
had q rather tempestu0us and
none too profitable season. IL
the Judge can grab off Cliff
HeathcOte, 0utlielleF, in ex-
change, the chances are that
this one viii be put over early.

The American League has given
up the idea OF a February meeting
entirely. Several Of the American
League moguls, Including Miller
Jimmy Huggins and Bucky Harris,
will, however, occupy choice seats
in the lobby while the Heydler
cohorts are in executive session.

The latter thOt that 1Ae had seen the light, so when nominations were in order in the Spring of 1926, it was arranged that the Repub- to2ns of the Fourth Division should not nominate 2 candi- c2te but that the Sutherland element should vote for the re- elCtiOn of SnatOr Dunn. Of course he was elected, and came to the Legislature in 1927 as a supporter of tl.a Sutherland measures. But before the ses-

ARTHUR FRAME

Early in the session, Senator Frame gave strong evidence that he was to be one of the in vincibleS. Wien he refused the blandishments, cajolery, and of fers of political preferment, so freely extended by pseudo-Re- publicanS and Democrats, if he would only consent to join with the Governor and keep the lat ter's messenger boy at the head of the Territorial Schools, it was demonstrated that he was a free agent prepared to serve his Territory. Turnout the session he favored and labored for pro- greSSive measures. He was par ticularly active in helping to se- cure elective offices and sought to Wrest from the Governor t:A2 personal power and influence that this office Wields because of the repeated action of the Territorial Legislature in impos- Ing new QuJ1eS on the GOVern- or that was not contemplated in the Organic Act. Where these issues were not involved Senate: Frame exercised an independ- ence of thought and action upon measures generally, and labOred 19ard, as chairman of the Judi ciary Committee, to whip meas ures in line and make them pre- sentable for serious cOnsidera- tion. He was never disconnected by the Wiles and political har- rangues of Senators Dimond and Dunn. He was ever ready to eX- pose their plays to the gallery and the press of the Territory At times he rose to flights of el- Oquence in justification of his standard of fairness and justice The Third Division has reason to feel grateful for the efficient and valuable service rendered by their Senator Frame.

J. H. ANDERSON

Possibly one of the greatest surprises in the Legislature was Senator Anderson. Without pre- vious experience, it was presunl- ed by the Democratic cOmbina- tion that he would easily fall in to the folds of the element tl,at sought to control for personal
The Alaska fisherman., 1929-06-15

Republicans to pass a number Of his measures. Some of them were meritOriOuS while others had a few jOkerS that had to De deftly extracted before passage
 One in particular was a COdiliCa- tiOn of the school laws that sought to give the Governor the right to appoint six members OI the Territorial Board of EduCa- tiOn, wills power to discharge the Commissioner of Education at will. This was characterized by Editor PegueS as 9 'nOn-pOlitiC- al, nOn-partiSan" l" gesture, The present Board of the Governor and four senior Senators sud- denly became partisan when it refused to continue in office the nOtOriously political c 0 III m S. siOner who had held the place for twelve years past. So Tony and the Editor conceived a new idea for restoring the ShOrn power of the defunct COmmiS- siOner. Another gesture, for which he was lauded by t-Go press of the Territory, was his motions toward the end of the session demanding that bills be- ing considered by committees be immediately reported. Of course he didn't expect that this would be done and they were all brought out in good time, but it gave the Editor an opportunity to eXtOl the earneStneSS and great value of Tony. Then again Tony was strong on denyncia- tory speeches wien the QueS- tiOn2ble actions Of the Govern or were at issue or when unSaV- ory politics of the Third Division were exposed. But this can easily be understood when it may be the intention of the Democratic Party to nominate Senator DimOnd as their candi- date for Delegate to Congress next April. But Tony is not on- ly affable and Iikeable but he is also shrewd and likeable, SO he may finally decide that Repre- sentative Ziegler is about the right size to take the mauIing that Dan Sutherland usually ad~ ministers to his adversary,

gain. His first real test was when the reelection of School Com missioner Henderson was an iS- sue. The social and Iraternal batteries of Juneau were SpeciI- icalIy directed toward Captur- ing and Subduing his first eX- pressed inden ldent thot. They believed he would easily fail un- der their bIandiShmentS and suCcumb to the desires of the organization tn at considered the Governors choice for all oI- fees S.A0uld be properly respect ed. But Senator Anderson care fully weighed all consideration and concluded that the ComnliS- SiOncrShip should be eliminated from politics, and thenceforth he stood ike the Rock Of Gib- raltar against the inp0rtullities and implications Of the COnbin- ed elements that sought to en- compass his downfall. Turnout the SeSSIOn, Senator Anderson stood SOjdIy with the Progress i've Republicans and it was early realized t.G1J when he gave his word on any question or meas ure, that there was nothing more to be said. He was honest and reliable and sought 10 ad- vance those measures that tend ed to the welfare Of the Terri tory. At the same time he was oVar alert to see that the Second DjV&&jon secured what it was justly entitled to. Take as a whole, Senator Anderson proved one of the most valuable of all the members of the Legislature. With the experience that ne has just had, his constituents will find when they return him for another session, that he will again prove more than worthy of the confidence that they re- pose in his ability and integrity.
