 Little remains of the once fa- nous five star pitching staff that played so big a part in the Yan- kee championship streaks. Waite Hoyt is the only survivor of the 1921 123 group. Herb Pennock is ct the point where he must recover delivery this year or retire. . Sam Jones has not been with the Yan- kees in some years. Neither has Carl Mays, the old submarine ace.
 It has been a difficult job re- placing these stars as they passed on. George Pipgras has become a regular. Wiley Moore was sen sation in 1928 but a flop the next year. Old Tom Zachary staged a comeback, winning 12 straight games in 1929 but his major league career is mostly behind him. Roy Sherid is regarded as likely pros beet but the Tanks can use at least two more consistent winners, with only Pipgras, Eoyt, Zachary and Sherid to count on from the outset.

Improvements to be
 Recommended

Mayor Earl. N Dinner, Coun- cilman Robert Allen and Sup erintendent MacKecknie, made an inspection of the city hy- drO-electric plant and pipe line at Crystal Lake, Blind Slough, Monday Of this week. The pur- pose of the inspection being to find the most practical and eco- nomical way to improve the capacity and service of the plant.
 Their recommendation to the City Council at it's next regular meeting will be that they found the dam in excellent condition but recommend that more fac ing be done to prevent a recur- lence of difficulties experienced last winter. MT. Dinner says that it is his opinion it would probably be an economy to drive a tunnel through a part of the mountain to tap the waters of Crystal Lake and thus do away with the siphon Hume now in operation. This would necessi- tate a tunnel of about 900 feet through solid rock but the econ Omy would more than justify the increased capitalization. While it would not be possible to do the work this year, it should be adopted as the eventual pol icy of the plant management and dependable estimates on the cost of such an improvement should be secured. The present Hume line, constructed partly on timber work and trestles, with it's many kinks and humps and short bends, will always be ar expensive proposition to main tain. This was fully appreciat- ed when the plant was built but the additional expense of the ] tunnel could not be considered
 at that time. However, the tun-
 nel can be driven far more
 cheaply now, using power iron
 the plant for drilling and thu
 change would not occasion an,
 loss of service.

A man who claims to have wit messed the Preparedness Day Pa rade bombing in San Francisco, and who described the disaster in detail, was found in Cleveland last Friday He has signed an affidavit swearing to the truth of his story. He is Henry Krum- CSC, ex-sailor and globe trotter.
 He believes that Warren K. Billings and Thomas Mooney, now serving life sentences for the bombing, are innocent.
 The California State Supreme Court was scheduled to hear the evidence of John Mcdonald, star witness against Billings and Tom Mooney, but Mcdonald will be in a reversed role. Ths time he will seek to prove that he perjured himself when he identified the two men as the ones who had planted a suitcase containing dynamite at the scene of the explosion.

Two Boats Capsize
 '. Nearly Fatal

A very serious and near fatal
 accident occurred in the NarrOWS ast Monday evening when six young people of Petersburg were
 saved from drowning by heroic
 measures.
 A party of four, consisting of
 Art Peterson, Nels Evans, Miss
 Frances Miller and Miss Mungy Larson, were out for a spin in lPeterson's new outboard speed ster when some kelp in the bay near the Union Oil Company'S wharf, somehow defiected the
 engine and capsized the boat. None of the four were good
 swimmers but all managed some measure of safety, except Miss
 Larsen who, it seems, had sunk
 beneath the surface but drifted
 with the tide against Evans who was able to keep her up tempor- arily.
 At this juncture. a second beat occupied by John JohanSon and Keith Young came to give aS- Sistance but somehow they were upset after Miss Larsen had been taken aboard.
 MT. Gene Torkelson, manager of the Union Oil Companv's plant, had witnessed the ac"i- dent from shore and succeeded in reaching the unfOrtuno te group, but since the rowboat could not carry so many, there was grave danger of sWamping it also. The two girls were taken on board and the boys held to the gunwales of the craft. On the dock, Miss Larson was reviV- ed somewhat and rushed by car to the doctors office. She had taken considerable water in her lungs which kept her confined to her room for two or three days but she is ahle to be out again. None of the others suf- fered any after effects excepting J Johanson whose hand was cut by glass from the windshield of the boat.

Kidding US Along

Stewart Edward White, novel ist, cruising for the summer il
 Southeast Alaska aboard his nev yacht "Koru" dropped anchor il the harbor here Wednesda, long enough to look us over.
 '"The Koru," named for the African Waterbuck, is a 77-foot cruising yacht provided with al most every comfort and conven- fence. She is powered with 8 18th. D. Washington Deisel.
 The party will probably cruise as far north as Icy Straits this summer, but the itinerary is purely tentative and may be changed to suit the Whim of the moment. MT. and Mrs. White spent four summers cruising the waters of British Columbia with their two former yachts Dawn and "Simba."
 While MT. White has publish cd a long list of best sellers, in cluding "The Westerners," "The tent Places" "The Riverman, /" and several more, he is perhaps better known to the rank and file of Alaskans as the author of certain articles published in The Saturday Exening Post last fall under the caption of Kidding Ourselves Along" having to do with our salmon fisheries and big game, particularly the brown and grizzly bear.
 AS to the brown bear MT. White will find all AlaSkans up on their hind legs ready to bite chunks off his pants to prove that the brown and grizzly bear are not the little kittenish pets one cares to meet in the woods except at a time the bear could not be in position to more than bite him. self and tear up saplings, shrubs and so forth if the first bullet fails to have his number on it.

O'Malley's Excuse Capt. Hunters Affidavit The
 Log Of the U S. 3. F S. "Brant"

this log indicates. My belief anc conviction is that Capt. Hunter has concealed the facts that would prove that Henry O'Mss.- talsified when he told the Secre- tary he (O'Malley) could not at tend the meeting Of Seiners in Ketchikan because he had to go to Anan Creek and thence to catch the tide at Wrangell Mar rows.
 Allow me to state my reasons for so believing.
 The log is complete, all points involving changes of course be- ing noted, up to Ship Island, 25 knots west of Ketchikan. From Ship Island no entries appear in this purported copy of the log book until the Brant reached An an Creek at 7.05 pm, four hours later. Why did the Captain omit Iemesurier Pt., on entering Ern- est Sound?
 After the Brant left Anan Creek. what channel did he fol- low? Blake Channel, Zimovia Straits, or back to Clarence Straits?
 When did the Brant enter Wrangell Narrows?
 Why didn't the captain note the time when he passed Pt. Alexander light to enter the Narrows?
 There are 2 lights in Wran- gell Narrows. Why did the cap tain fail to note any one of them?
 His first course entry after leaving Anan Creek q pm. of July 3rd) was 5:43 a.m., July 4th, Mitkof Point, the most mortimer ly Point of Mitkoff Island, at the upper end of Wrangell Narrows, a period of 10 and 34 hours.
 After this point, please note that the captain again makes his frequent entries of point after point, every few miles.

From The Alaska Fisherman
 Ketchikan, Alaska,

May 13, 1930 Hon. Robert F. Lamont,
 Secretary of Commerce,
 Washington, D. O.,
 Dear Sir: Tn Re: O'Mallev'!
 Excuse for not attending Ma
 tives' meeting to protest hook
 off rule, July 3, 1929.
 My contention is this: that Henry O'Malley, in line with his long established practice o1 treating the Natives of Alaska with contempt and refusing tC give them a hearing although graciously granting the same to big operators, did not wish to attend the meeting of native seiners gathered for the express purpose of conferring with O'Malley one and one-half hours after O'Malley left town; that O'Malley deceived the Secretary by saying that he was compelled to leave Ketchikan when he did because he had to go to Anan Creek to inspect the weir md thLn catch tf.e tide at WrangCL II Narrows We charge that Lh;s ret son was a mery excuse con- cocted after O'Malley saw that his violation of our constitution al rights had aroused the inter est of his superior.
 I have just received the so- called copy of the log book of the U. s. Bureau of Fisheries vessel "Brant" from June 29th 1929 to II pm. July '. 1929, and certified to by E. L. Hunter, Mas ter U. s. F. s. "Brant," this being the boat upon which MT. O'Mal- ley was travelling.
 I cannot believe that this is a COMPLETE copy of the Brant's log although I am willing to be- lieve that it is CORRECT in what is given therein.
 I cannot believe that Hunter, or any other captain could be as careless in navigating a ship as
