 Major J. IN Strong landed at Iditarod with his printing plant about July, 1910. He had been printing the Katalla Herald un- til the Iditarod boom. Traffic on the Idltarod river was hand led mostly by gasoline craft and was badly damned, 50 that the Major had quite a job getting his plant landed

NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-Tony
Canzoneri will be standing on
goose eggs tonight and he might
slosh down. Goose eggs do not
always stand up under pressure.

weight title, he has the temerity
to take on a tough young hombre
from the Pacific Coast.

jolly we'll could toss a stilson
wrench into the carefully thought
out plans of young Mister Can
zoneri. Boxing is funny that
way.
They meet at the Greensboro
Stadium. Canzoneri is on the
spot. He could be knocked off.
They tell me that Goldie is that
kind of a bird.
Canzoneri is the official chal-
lenger for Singers l35-pound
crown. They are matched to
fight. AS is, nobody can take
Tony's place. AS is, he stands
right on the top Stoop Of the
throne room. He is. within, per
haps, a single haymaker of a
title. He could step out and hit
Singer right on the potato and
draw on the purple robes OF
supremacy. Again boxing Is odd
that way.
Isn't it reasonable to say that
Hess stands a chance to ruin
Canzoneri's chance with Singer.
Hess has whipped good men on
the Coast. Canzoneri can be
whipped. He is only human and
therefore it is spot for 9, young
man who believes in opportunity.

title is going to be planted Where
it belongs.

DOPEST 7 ERS
OVERLOOK
TEAM
BY GARRETT WATERS

Watch the Anacostia Eagles.
That's. the byWord of teams all
along the unlimited rank at pres
ent.
They haven't won any cham
pionship as yet but they stand
a very good chance. They moved
into second place in the Capital
City League race only Sunday
and trail the leading Columbia
Heights Nine by a mere half a
game.
The Eagles are not a great ball
club. They're just a huStling
bunch, that's all. out for every
break. Their lineup is not stud.
ded with stars but the several
players on the roster are per
formers who know how to play.
The peculiar thing about
the Eagles is the fact that
they have been overlooked all
season. They haven't been
given thought. They haven't
been reckOned.
About three weeks ago the Co.
lumbia Heights and st. Joseph
mines began getting into trouble
in the matter of winning ball
games. While both either stag
gered through games to score or
just down right lost them, the
Eagles were winning and winning
silently.
Today they have become the
feared contender for the Capital
City unlimited baseball crown,
District section. Not only have
they become it, but they are.
Right now the Columbia
Heights tossers are thinking and
thinking hard on just how to
handle the situation. The Pratt
managed team knows it must win
from now on, or give up the ship
This is where the Eagles
hold dangerous advantage.
They are in the midst of a
winning streak. And more
important than that, they are
hungry for the league title,
which is dangerous when a
team is so near the top as
they.
Here's the regular lineup of the
Eagles. - Connick, rightfielder and
lead-off man. Gilbert, first base;
Sweeney left field; Ford, second
base; Clark. shortstop; Wesley.
third base: Shurgue, center tleld;
Wahler, catcher, and Goodwin.
pitcher.
Sweeney is the Tom Sweeney
who folrnerly welded a mean bat
for the st. Joseph'S in other years.
He is the big slugger of the team.
At present he is the midst of a
hitting streak, leading the entire
Eagle array at bat. He collected
three out of five last Sunday, one
a double, one a triple and the
third a single.
The Capital City League
season has about two more
weeks to go. The Eagles look
to be the real threat for the
championship, despite the Co
lumbia Heights showing and
lead all season.

The story Of the game could

was said about Lefty Guethler,

of the Gobs. Guethler worked
hard at all times and once ahead

played excellently at short, handl-

homer with a man on base for
teams first two runs in the third.
Roberts collected three hits
for the GObs. He also played a
steady game on the initial

that hiring spelled his ruin.
