RACE IN AMERICAN
LOOP PREDICTED To-
Be FIVE CORNERED
Cleveland, Washington, Detroit
and New York Anticipated
as Rivals
IS PLEASED WITH SUBS
Connie Satisfied with Corps of
Infield, Outfield and Catch
ing Talent

phia Athletics)
American League followers all over
the circuit have been longing for a
real al and l would not be surprised
II they had it is this year.
To my mind, all the teams have
strengthened and it may turn out
that some new power in baseball will
loom up.
The Athletics were good enough to
| win two straight pennants and l have
| not lost q bit of faith in the skill
courage and fighting qualities of my
world champions. but if it is hard to
| win two in a row, it is vastly harder
to win three straight.
Pleased With Subs
I am wholly satisfied with the reg
ulars and reserves of our infield, out
field and catching departments. For
the inner Gordon we have three Won
derful understudies in Dib Williams,
Eric McNair and Pinky Higgins. They
were with us last year and played Sc
we'll that they look ready to step into
the shoes of the regulars when that
becomes necessary. In addition. we
have acquired the veteran Phil Todt,
Red Sox first baselnan, to bolster our
infield.
! want to voice wholehearted con-
fidence in my Unfolding regulars,
consisting of Foxx at first. Bishop at
second, Boley at short and Dykes on
third. Because of his terrific hitting
Foxx has a gold mortgage on first
base. In case he is hurt. l can use
Todt or switch Dykes to first ana
send Higgins to third. In cast of ac-
| cidents to Bishop, McNair would take
his place. while Williams would fill in
for Boley.
New Outfield Talent
For the first time in many years,
eight outfie1ders will go> with us to
the training camp. The newcomers
are Bob johnson of Portland, brother
OF the Detroit o%utfielder; Jimmy
Moore. who joined lis late last yea.
and who did good work both in the
pennant season and in the world Sc
ries; Roger Cramer, farmed to Port
land last year, and two minor league
youths named Finney and LESLEY.
The Athletics will have Is pitchers
at Fort Myers, Fla. and nine o. them
are newcomers. If I can get some
help from the new pitchers it will
mean a lot to us.
The Mick Is In
For reasons I don't have to explain,
Cochrane will catch all of the games
when he can stand up. However,
have four new receivers in Phillips
once with Detroit: Heving. obtained
recently from the Red Sox for the
waiver price: Palmisano of Portland
and Leslie of Brantford, Can.
AS l said before. u rivals have
| strengthened and l must expect ex-
ceptionally strong opposition from
Cleveland, Detroit, Washington and
New York. It may turn out to be a
five-cornered race, as the four rival
teams I named have buttressed all
departments. I will not venture to
guess which one of these five teams
will go over for the baseball touch.

LARGE CROWD is EXPECTED
McMahan and Hays Worried
Over Positions Left Vacant
by Cage Veterans
LARGE CROWD is EXPECTED

Basketball fans who will see the
Mandan-B bismarck cage battle will
gather at the new World War Memorial
building at 7:30 p. m. Friday, for the
second contest between the rival
squads.
There was a time when Demon fol-
lowers were fairly confident Of win
ming every game, but that confidence
has been shaken recently through the
marvellous development of the Man
dan quint.
Johnny Spriggs may be out Of the
game with a sore ankle and early
Wednesday Wade Green, sophomore
Demon guard, displayed an infected
finger that may keep him out Of the
battle. The loss of both will be q
severe handicap for Coach George
Badly" Hays squad and a consider
able factor should Mandan win.
To Be Interesting Tilt
The second tilt between the two
teams always Is interesting, but this
year it is particularly SO, in view OF
the fact that there seems to be no
pre-battle favorite. AS far as actual
ranking this season there is no
efficient one, both clubs seem to be
on q par eve though Coach "Baldy"
Hays athletes beat Minot and James
town while the Braves lost.
Which mel will start for Bismarck
will not be known until the whistle
blows. Hays may use Agre and Ben
ser or Allen at forwards, TAFT at
center, Lester Dynamo" Dohn at
a guard and Dale Brown or Wood
row Shepard at the other guard.
Coach Leonard G. McMahan's
starting lineup is ever less certain.
With 6pielman definitely out Of the
game McMahan may use Magne
Syvrud at center, or he may switch
Sterling Byerly to center and use
Syvrud at guard Another possible
combination may be Donald Soluln,
six-foot three-inch PapooSe center,
in Spielman's place with Byerly at
guard.
MandAn Lineup Uncertain
McManan has not started the same
five men more than three times this
season. He possibly may use Byerly
as jumping center and team either
Dale Smith or Bob Saunders with
Captain Franz Boehm at the forward
position.
An exceptionally large crowd is ex-
pected to attend the second meeting
Of the two teams Friday night. The
battle Friday will be unique in that
three Bismarck quints will meet
three Mandan quints. The prelim-
mary game between the Imps and
Papooses is scheduled to start at 7:30
p. m. The second game will be the
feature attraction between the Braves
and the Demons and the third game
will be held between the Bismarck
Phantoms and the Mandan indie
pendents at $50 p. m.

A THOUGHT FOR POPPY DAY

Next Monday the American Le- zion Auxiliary will start the sale of the Topples for this year. On this day millions of Americans will wear the little red poppy of France and Flanders in memory of the men who gave their lives in the World War. More than one hundred thousand of the finest young men of our country died in the great struggle of 1917 and 1918, and every true American holds the memory of their service and sacri- flee in a sacred place in his heart, The little red poppy, worn on Pop py Day" will be- the outward symbol of the reverence in which we hold the memory of these men.
 While thinking of many of the men who lost their lives in the war, our thoughts naturally will go to the other thousands who did not die but who returned with shattered bodies and minds to face years of suffering and distress. We will be happy to know that in purchasing a flower to honor the dead we have contributed something to aid the disabled.
 Every one of the ten million pop pies which the American Legion and American Legion Auxiliary will offer to the public on Poppy Day. have been shaped by the fingers of some disabled veteran.
 The local Unit of the American Legion Auxiliary has five hundred poppies to sell this year, so do your bit" and help the good cause along.

The Interior Department an- nounces that plans for the field pro jects to be undertaken in Alaska. by the Geological Survey this season have now reached an advanced stage and the several parties will start for the field during this month.
 By far the most intensive work that will be done by the Geological Survey in Alaska this season will be that financed by the special ap. propriatiOn for research along the Alaska Railroad and directed toward the examination of mineral deposits contiguous to the railroad that may contribute to its revenues by fur njshing tonnage. Nine separate parties will be assigned to this work. Most of them will be stationed in mining camps from one end of the railroad to the Other-Fairbanks, Kantishna. Copper Mountain. Valdez Creek, Chulitna, Willow Creek, An thracite Ridge, Girdwood and Moose Pass-but one party will carry on certain general studies throughout the tract adjacent to the railroad. Direct supervision of all these pro- jects has been assigned to s. R. Capps, whose long service in the Geological Surveys Alaska work and whose personal familiarity with most of the mining camps near the railroad make him especially fitted to conduct and direct the work.
 Personnel Varies
 Biologists will be assigned to all these. projects, but the personnel of different parties will vary greatly. as it will be determined by the individual requirements of the specific job. Thus, in the Kan- tishna, Copper Mountain, Anthracite Ridge, and Girdwood areas, where adequate maps for plating the geol ogic information are not available, the parties will be accompanied by topographic engineers and other per sonnel needed to make the essential mapa.

BiShOpGiveS Interesting
 Lecture

A sreat change has taken place in Wrangell since he first saw 1t twenty-seven years ago, said Bishop Thomas Jenkins who arrived here Monday. He is assis ing Bishop Rowe by visiting the Episcopal churches of southeast Alaska and as fan west as Anchorage.
 Bishop Jenkins is now bishop of Nevada. He came t) ketchikan as vicar in 1902. At that time there were no streets in KeCchikan and the population was mainly Thinglet with but few whites. In 1904 he made his first visit to Mrangen and held services in the nome of the parents of w. c. Waters. He made infrequent visits here during 1904 and 1905 but holds very clearly the memory of friends made during that time. He says he misses the Bron- sons, A. V. R. Snyder, MT. and Mrs. Waters, Captain and Mrs. Wilson, and many others, who have either moved away or passed on to another shore.
 In 1908 he was made arch deacon of southeast Alaska with headquar- ters at Skagway. After leaving AL asha he served five years as rector of St. Paul's, in Fremont Ohio, and 1 4 years as rector of St. Dayid'a in Portland. He was elected bishop oI Nevada three years ago and makes his home in Reno.
 While l find many changes in WrangeIl,' said Bishop Jenkins, my chief impression is that 1t is in- finitely freen from drinking, carous- ing and vice than in the early days. My last visit here was made ten years ago in the interests of Near East Relief, and I note many im- provements that have been made since that time, both in business houses and homes and gardens. Streets have been extended, roads have been built; the streets are crowded with automobiles and on all sides l see Improvements that have been made and which denote a steady spirit ot progressiyeness." "
 On Thursday evening Bishop Jenkins delivered a very interesting lecture at St. Philips church on the Passion Play at Oberammerg4u, which he witnessed last year. tie had intended to administer confir- nation before the lecture, but a change in plans was made and the continuation class will net he pre- sented until his return here next month.

M. Mccormack To Graduate
 Soon

Miss Margaret Mccormack, daugh- ter of MT. and Mrs. P. c. McCor- mack, will be graduated on Monday afternoon, June 1, from the San Francisco College for Women.
 Miss Mccormack has had excell- ent educational advantages. She carried on her freshman high school studies at the Madames of the Sacred Heart in San Francisco and the three succeeding years at For est Ridge Convent in Seattle. She was a student for three years at the College of the Sacred Heart at Menbo Park, California, before en- tering the San Francisco College for Women last year.
 She has won distinction through out her school career for the high scholastic record she was able to maintain in each school in which she was a student. Besides holding an unusually high scholarship, she has been a participant each year in the greater part of the schools social activities and in student ad- Vancement of the work of the church.
 San Francisco newspapers last week carried Miss McCormack's 8 picture in a group of six college boys and girls with Father Daniel Lore, S. J., noted Jesuit dramatist. The accompanying article stated that members of the group were prominent in the conference of representatives of Catholic colleges and high schools who met last Sum- day at St. Ignatius church and Uni versity of San Francisco to form a College Council of Catholic Action.
 Following the commencement week program Miss Mccormack will leave San Francisco for her home in Wrangeil.

 Gets First
 Dredge

B. J. O'ReiIly left on the Hazel B No. 2 Thursday morning after spending several days in Wrangell on business connected with his dredging project on the Clearwater, a tributary of the Stikine river. Preliminary work for operations is under way by the crew which went in on the first trip of the Barring ton boats in April.
 Mir. 0'Reilly will use a Risdon dredge of the revolving screen types with link bucket line, Diesel pow- cred and with a digging capacity from 1900 to 1500 yards per day.
 While this is an old mining dis trict, all placer operations hereto fore have been by hand methods or hydraulicking on small scale. 0'Reilly will be the first to venture taking in a dredge to recover the gold of the bars.
 For the past two seasons MT. 0'Reilly has been developing the ground and the results proved it justifies dredging. The dredge will be constructed and ready for work by September and there probably will be from 50 to 90 days of digging before the river closes in. He will dredge as long as the season remains open. He believes the ground will be gone over and dredging operations completed by the end of the season in 1888.
