Destroyer Squadron Ends Joyous Two-Day Holiday
 Here Sailing South

Eight hundred sailors of the pickle fleet regular and reserve, officers and men,-wound up a joyous two-day holiday ashore here late last night and early this morning sailed on their return trip to the Port Angeles rendezvous. Target practice will be held enroute south.
 Saturday night and Sunday the tars-pro and amateur alike-for- sock their floating homes and made merry with the people of Juneau and other Gastineau Channel com munities. Ballgames, prize fights, dances, boat races, automobile tours and other diversions featured their entertainment.
 Entertainment Is Brisk
 From very shortly after the Sixth Destroyer Squadron of the Four teenth Naval Division moored at Government dock about II am, Saturday, until a few hours before it sailed at 8 o'clock this morning, there was something on tap-the visitors were either being enter tained or were entertaining others. Nearly all of the visitors were guests of local people for trips to Mendenhall Glacier, and ot h r points on Glacier Highway. Many were dinner or luncheon guests, and all were guests at dances Sat urday and Sunday, and at the American Legion smoker Saturday evening.
 The smoKer urew a big crowd filling the Legion's A. B. Hall arena Beginning with the curtain-raiser kayos came frequently. Only two of the six bouts went the full four scheduled rounds.
 In the opener, Kid Villardi was too light for his sailor opponent, Jones, and the referee stopped it in the second round
 Coast Guard Victor
 The Coast Guard scored over the Navy in the second match, when Sailor Sharkey, Unalga, adminis- tered the sleeping potion to Sailor Rooms from the destroyer flotilla, midway of the second round. It was a peach of scrap while it lasted i
 Jimmy Moore, local boxer mixed | with Gunboat Little in slugfest | in the third event Moore sent the sailor to dreamland in the third eanto.
 The fourth was a sort of comedy l bout with two boys off the Hamil- ton as comedians. Blackie Lowe and Red van Wettering patted and | slapped each other for four long rounds Red tired easily and after the first round did most of his stuff | from the ropes The judges called the bout a draw for no reason at all. Lowe was clever and just played with Red.
 For two rounds, Slugger Weaver, and Rigotto of the Twiggs put up a lively fight. These 125- pounders gave the fans lots of entertainment. Weaver looked good enough to line up for future smok- CTS. Fast and hard-hitting. he made short work of Rigotto in the second round
 Sammy Nelson and Battling Bos- kovich fought a slow, four round bout in the final. Bat was too tall for Sammy and the latter couldn't reach him. Bat tried in vain to pierce Sammy's defense, and the judges looked 'em both over for a draw.
 Divide Games Evenly
 In two ball games, one Saturday and the second Sunday, the locals divided on even terms with the sailors. Juneau took the first game by a 9-l score. Manning, pitching for the locals, held the gobs to five hits.
 Sunday the gobs took sweet re- venge by walloping the local team 9 to 4. Lewis, hurling for the vic- tors, sIow-balled the local batters into submission. He yielded but six hits in nine frames, while the
