NEW YORK, March 4. - Mister
Joe Mccarthy probably didn't real
ize it and chances are he couldn't
have done anything about 1t if he
had, but his hopes of bringing the
Yankees home in front this year
were powerfully endangered when
he okayed Babe Ruths joining in
an informal foursome with Billy
Burke, Gene SaraZan and Joe Kirk
wood a few days ago.
Babe, my Belleair scout informed
me, stepped up TO the first tee with
a look on his honest pan that could

HUSKLES-BEARS
WILL MEET FOR
PACIFIC TITLE

OAKLAND, March 4. U.P)-The
Washington Huskies and Califor-
MAS Golden Bears, ancient rivals
of Pacific coast basketball, will
clash tonight for the second sue
cessive year with the conference
championship at stake.
Both winners of sectional titles,
the two squads were so evenly
matched that there was little to
choose between them. The Huskies
held a psychological advantage as
they defeated the Bears for confer
ence honors last year.
Two out of three games must be
won to settle the contest. The Sec
ond tilt will be played tomorrow
night and the third, if necessary,
Monday night.
The series will not be lacking in
color. Tor the opposing coaches are
two OF the best on the coast. Uncle
Hec" Edmundson's Huskies will
bring their system of sideline
charging by the forwards into play
against the semi-zone defense used
by COach Clarence 'NlDS Price OF
California.
Capt. Ralph CARNEY, guard, who
last year contributed largely to
California's defeat, was the biggest
threat the Huskies carried.
Jimmy Fuller Washington's GEN.
ter, will be opposed by Jack Head,
the Bears sensational Upper.
The Bears. after starting the sea-
son with mediocre prospects, used
drive and quick action to fight past
the Trojans into the finals. The
Huskies. famous for their fast
breaking attack. found themselves
at the bottom of the northern pile
and then won l3 straight games to
take the title.
A record crowd was expected in
Oakland auditorium for the tip-off
at 9 p. m.

a letter of information with the
following statement: The Com
mission has found, from experience.
that the payment of lump sum in
lieu of the regular installments of
compensation is not advisable in
the interest of the injured en-
ployee. The unsatisfactory exper-
fence which has followed where
lump settlements have been made
has caused the Commission to
practically discontinue making this
form of settlement. In the case of
an employee we'll advanced in
years, the payment of compensation
in regular monthly installments
would appear to be much more ad-
vantageous than the payment of a
lump sum. 1t would, at least, in
sure the injured employee a reg
ular income which would enable
him to be self supporting during
remainder of his life and he would
not be left the uncertainty of safely
investing the proceeds of a lump
sum payment"

An arrangement had been made
by Delegate Wickersham with the
Chairman of the House Judiciary
Committee that he was to appear
before the committee when the
bill was considered to merge the
Nome and Fairbanks judicial d.
visions into one division, with one
set of court officials. At meeting
of the Committee on April 9Th the
bill was inadvertently taken up and
favorably reported, because of the
presumed saving to the Government
of $4,000 yearly. When the Dele
gate learned of the action taken he
requested of Chairman Summers
that he hold up the report until he
could be heard in opposition to the
bill. This was agreed to and April
10 was fixed as the time for the
second hearing, when the Delegate
presented his objections and Sc
cured an annulment of the pre-
vious favorable report. Thus the
bill stands as it formerly did, and
is in the same position as is the
Senate bill on the same subject,
and neither will move forward un-
til a favorable report is filed in
Congress.

ecutive Order" presumably made in
March to- transfer the Alaska Road
Commission from the War Depart

1t develops that there has been no
such order issued. However, the
transfer is in line with the coordi-
nation idea of the Administration,
and the War Department has re-
commended that the change be
made, as the Interior Department is
already operating the Alaska Rail
road and the river steamer service
in the Territory, and it is agreed
that all government lines of trans
portation and road facilities should
be under one department. To trans
fer the Alaska Road Commission it
is necessary that there be Con-

not expected that Rivers and Har-
