WHY SUCH WASTE?

1 have been wo,s!1.crr.siS about this since I first came to Alaska about
 ten years ago. since then most of my time has been spent in de-
 veloping plans to eliminate some
 of the enormous waste in this coun- Cry.
 The better way to do this it to make trade connections with a mar ket which can assimilate this waste, and would be glad to turn the waste into cash, which will mean
 that Millions of Dollars could be put into circulation in this Terri tory. I also agree with M. Rust gard when he Sad that some other industries must be developed in
 Alaska to keep people occupied dur ing the whole year.
 A very important industry to be developed is the Export Trade, which would take care of much of the waste herein mentioned and
 would also prove a valuable stimu- ! Jus to the Lumber interests of the country. I know of no country in. the world with open sea ports that
 have no ships of their own, nor any
 connection with foreign markets.
 Here is Alaska with the largest
 resources of lumber and fish, and with more coastline than any coun- 1 try in the world, and without a single ship of it's own or connec-
 ton with a foreign market. China and Japan are the largest ! importers of lumber we can find in the world; Shanghai alone imports 1 from 9 to 10 millions of dollars
 worth yearly of dried salted fish, principally dry salted herring. The
 most important thing for Alaska to
 do is to connect up with the Orient
 directly in the Import and Export Trade. To get this connection we
 need the cooperation of the public ! of Alaska and in this means we
 can get the business firmly estab lished.
 The Oriental Co-Operative Cor poration has been established with the Head Office at Juneau, Alaska. Our office is, located on Front Street and our aim is to market tthe Alaska products. Anyone desir- ling to pack fish of any kind for export to the Orient, and also lum- bering people desiring to cut lumber for export, should please communi- cate with the Oriental Co-Operative
 Corporation.

Baseball and football have had their famous brother acts. Base ball still has, with the Waners as prime examples. Golf has one of the finest family hookups of them all in the Farrell brothers ! Jimmy, the quiet but quite efficient elder, and Johnny, the fashion plate former National Open king and Irish lad with the million dollar smile. It isn't a new combina- tion The Farrell brothers have long been partners in the profess sional business at the Quaker Ridge Club, across the road from the course of which the National Open was played last year in Westches- ter County. Winters they team up at St. Augustine.
 Not so much is heard of Jimmy the silent partner. Take it from Johnny, howeyer-he runs the fam fly show.
 You know I really didn't start
 
 anywhere until the spring of 1927, " Johnny says. up to then I was just one of the boys, winning a flock of qualifying medals but fin ishing nowhere at the end of the tournament. I got going with Jim s help and advice and began winning : some tournaments. In fact won a flock of them in 1927, start ing with the Met Open. Then I won the National Open in 1928 at Olympia. Jim was so nervous he could not follow me around dur ing the playoff in which beat Bobby Jones by stroke.
 T said to myself: This was easy. How long has it been going on?' And that's just where I made a big mistake. I thought more about my game, tried to pick it apart to see how it ticked-and you know what happened. I didn't qualify for the last two rounds of the 1929 Open, right in my own backyard That was tough, but I have learned that too much self analysis does not pay in this game of golf So I am just up there smacking em now
 The latest testimonial concerning Brother Johnny is that, in a trial with steel-shafted irons, he is now smacking 'em straighter and far ther than ever. He will be back in

ROCHESTER SET . TO REPEAT IN INTERNATIONAL
Drive to Be Made Against Twice Pennant Winner
 in as Many Years
By BRIAN BELL GA. P. Sports Writcr)

NEW YORK, May I'm widely separated training camps, extend ing from Texas to Florida, by way Of Georgia and South Carolina, seven International league clubs have prepared drive against Ro- chester, twice pennant winner in as many years.
 The champions, managed by the crafty Billy Southworth, do not seerl to have lost strength during the winter and with a baseball gold mine in the shape of the St. Louis Cardinals to draw from, the other clubs will have no easy time in their efforts to dispossess the Red Wings.
 Reports from the other clubs, however, indicate all are in better shape for this years campaign than was the case last year.
 Toronto, runner up last year, has found the Detroit Tigers a friend in need and several pitchers sent to the Maple Leafs from their big brothers should be helpful Prud- homme, who was a star at Toronto two years ago, is back again after a years absence under the big top.
 Baltimore has gone to the ma jors for assistance and promises to present a well balanced outfit. Mon treal, too, has made some good baseball deals, although the loss Of their lefthanded star pitcher, the Indian, Elon Hogsett, to Detroit, will be felt.
 The second division clubs of 1929 have not been idle and the race should be made closer by improve ment in the lineups at Buffalo, Newark, Reading and Jersey City.
 Newark has great hitting team and will be dangerous if adequate pitching is developed by the white matched Iris Speaker Derby Day Bill Clymer is well satisfied with his Buffalo prospects and Reading, un- der Harry Hinchman, will get some assistance from the Cubs before the season starts. Jersey City has the only new manager in the league, Nick Allen, who piloted Tul- sa to a pennant in the Western League last year Jersey City has drawn on both major leagues for additional material and seems to be prepared to make serious bid to escape the cellar.

 All signs point ponderously to prospective change in the heavy weight wrestling championship" ranks, with the scenery shifted this time from Boston to Los An geles and the latest challenger, Everett Marshall, groomcd to lift the prize of the pachyderms from roly-poly Gus Sonnenberg,
 Sonnenberg has been offered "a record purse" for a match with Marshall. That is the first sign of impending events. The second is a victory for Marshall over the veteran Ed (Strangler) Lewis, war horse of the troupe whose activi- ties range from Boston to the Mid- dle West, South and Far West.
 Wayne (Big) Mum flopped Lewis at Kansas City when it was decided that what the game needed was collegiate atmosphere; specifically the rulership of a Nebraska col- legian. Later the culture of old New England was sought and Gus Sonnenberg of Dartmouth picked to beat Lewis for the championship and there, as the saying is, you are

Theory is advanced that Hyde,
who is wealthy, might be persuaded
to take the chairmanship-n the
President wants him to do so-with
the thought that he may help allay
Republican dissatisfaction in the
west. Republican officials generally
are anxious to reorganize the ma
tional committee, under new leader

effectively for the approaching con-
gressional campaigns.
Hyde was Governor of Missouri
before becoming secretary of agri-
culture. He is farmer and bust
nessman and is said to be widely
acquainted throughout the west.
