Pitchers Can Travel Route Under Present. Day Batting Orgies
F FANS LIKELY
TO SOUR ON
RUNFESTS

NEW YORK, May Baseball,
according to everybody's admis-
sion, but it's own. has arrived to-
day at the crisis so familiar to
all who sit at the feet of Bacchus
and make merry wassail. 1t must
taper off from it's Bacchanalia Of
hitting or face the possibility Of
dying upon the goad of it's own
appetite. This observation is not
intended to be comical.
I am aware, for example, that
the major leagues are playing TO
big business and that the aver
age club owner has reached the
point where he has just about
decided to tender himself vote
of confidence. Instead. he should
call in the deputy sheriffs to pro-
tect him from himself. An orgy
is never an enduring institution
and so, in my opinion, if baseball
continues to succeed, it will be in
spite of the deoauch Of hitting
and not because of it.
Some earnest soul with his
brains largely in his biceps
has come out of solitary con-
finement with the infOrma-
tiOn that more than 600 pitch
erS have come and gone in
the course of three weeks.
Granting that the lad with the
numerals may have been kicked
by a horse or something in his
early youth. his findings, if true,
leave baseball without leg under
it. There just isn't any sense in
the employment of 200 men q
week when less than half that
number would suffice.
AS a matter of fact, the average
pitcher in this wild day is no bet
ter than 100 to l in what he al
ludes to technically as his life
work. There are hardly more
than dozen of them in the
racket at this moment who can
guarantee to start and finish one
ball game out of the normal three
and most of them think they are
fortunate if some opposing hitter
doesn't drive the ball right down
among their adenoidS. With the
current "Jackrabbit" ball, the
pitcher is just as safe as though
he was throwing dynamite down
the mouth of cannon.
SeibOld, of the Braves, is
the most consistent pitcher in
the two leagues today, If we
are to judge by his Self-Suffi-
cheney. He has made five
starts and has yet to fail to
go the distance.
Stewart, the Browns lefthander:
Charley Root, Pat Malone. Milton
CASTOR and the astonishing Allen
have been almost equally
consistent. Each has pitched
four complete games. Walberg
and Grove, Ted Lyons, Young
Frey, Crowder, Walker, the Cleve.
land Brown, Brame. SWeetland,
Sylvester Johnson and
AlphOnse Thomas have stayed
with the situation for. three com,
plete games.
This just about closes the book.
The rest of them apparently go
in there and begin praying for
a poStponement
OF course, the pitching is
bound to get better for several
reasons; the other one is that
it can't get worse. But regard
less of what warm weather and
development will do for
1im, the pitcher is in losing
profession. John Heydler wanted

JUNEAU FEELS MERCURY DROP
 TUESDAY NIGHT
New Five-Year Low Record Set at Three Above
 May Be Colder Yet

Juneau shivered last night as the mercury in it's thermometers con- tinued to drop, and set new cold record for the past five years. The official forecast for tonight is for even colder temperature.
 Last night the coldest recorded was three degrees above zero. The weather was clear and the wind subsided somewhat to a Emile per hour average at am. today. The mercury, under bright sun, had risen to 10 above at noon today and there was no wind.
 Last nights low was the coldest experienced locally since January 29 1925 when zero was recorded. There has been twice that even colder weather has prevailed here once in December 1924, when it was two below zero, and in Febru- ary, 1917, when an all-time record of l5 below was registered.
 Official weather reports from in- terior stations of the United States Weather Bureau, show somewhat warmer weather prevailing there, it was announced by R. c. Mize, Meteorologist in Charge. However, Cordova last night reported eight below temperature and it was be- lieved likely the effects of this wave would be felt in Juneau be- fore the moderation in the interior would reach the coast.

REV. GALLANT
 IS RECOVERING
 FROM INJURIES
Two of Four Wreck Vic tims Die-Were Former
 Residents of Juneau

Rev. Father G. E. Gallant, Skag- way, has virtually recovered from injuries received in an automobile accident near Bellingham on Feb Tuary 3, according to arrivals this week from Seattle. This was con- firmed by letters received by Rt. Rev. Bishop J. R. Crimont, of this city.
 Mrs. Edward H Busse and her son. Fred, injured in the same wreck, died a few hours later. MT. Busse, another casualty, was re- covering from severe injuries that were not considered dangerous.
 The Busse family formerly re- sided in this city and is said to have removed to Seattle some eight CT nine years ago. Father Gal lant was their guest there for a day or two and was being taken by them to Bellingham to visit other friends. The machine in which they were travelling collided with another car on a dangerous bridge near Blanchard. The Busse auto was swept off the bridge and plunged almost 100 feet to the earth below, overturning and trap ping the mother and son beneath the car. Father Gallant and MT. Eusse were thrown clear of the falling machine which accounted for their escape from probably fla tai injuries.
 Father Gallant's injuries con- sisted of a severe scalp wound, a number of minor cuts and numer- ous bruises, and a general physical and nervous shock He was re- covering nicely early last week.

BOSTON ELKS' LODGE
PLEADS BANKRUPTCY
Three Receivers Appointed to Con

Brought by Bank.

BOSTON. July 31.-The Boston
Lodge of Elks, whose charter was sus-
pended several months ago by the ma
tional organization for liquor law viola
ton, is bankrupt, John F. Malley, for
mer grand exalted ruler, admitted yes
terday in Suffolk County Court.
Malley was appearing as counsel for
the local lodge before Judge Lummus in
connection with the petition of the First
National Bank of Boston for the APP
pointment of a receiver to take over the
hotel property, because it is in arrears
Of its payments.
He told the court the lodge probably
would have gone into bankruptcy were
not the officers and members deeply
concerned about their second-mortgage
bondholders and other creditors.
Malley said the lodge had no business
In the hotel field and said that venture
had been a failure. The lodge is one
of the largest in the country, and its
new home erected several years ago in
the downtown theatrical section of the
city combines a good sized hotel prop
erty with the lodge rooms and group
of ground-floor retail stores.
Judge Lummus appointed three re-
ceivers, who were authorized to con-
tinue the hotel business, but under
some other name which will not include
the word "Elks" or any derivative OF 1t.
