Win In Second Half

VIII HI 0S~OAs~ A-
 After having been held to tie score in the first half of last nights game in the Douglas nata- torium, the Juneau Fire Depart ment hoop squad swamped the Island department quintet in the final session and won by score of 32 to 16, giving them two straight games. The halftime whistle found the count knotted with an 8-all count.
 The game was fast and for the first two quarters looked to belong to anybody. Each team checked closely in the opening half, giving few opportunities for open shots at the basket. Hollmann and Bay CTS for Juneau romped away for scoring honors, each caging six from scrimmage, and Erskine was runnerup with seven points on two from the field and three gift throws.
 Locals Score First
 Juneau jumped away to four point lead. Bayers counted first with a shot from beneath the bas- ket. Erskine followed shortly af- terward with one from the side. Baskets by Martin and Bonner tied the count. Hollmann sunk the casaba to put his team back into the lead momentarily but Gray tied the score for a second time at six-all. Martins second basket gave the Islanders two point margin. Gray fouled ErSkine as the latter was shooting, and the local star dropped two through the hoop to tie the count just before the whls- tie ended the half.
 Gray, fouled by Nelson, sank a one pointer to break the tie as the second stanza opened. Erskine came through with a nice shot from one side of the court and put Juneau out in the front by a point. Manning broke through the Ju- neau defense with dribble and oaged one to give Douglas the lead for the last time.
 On Scoring Spree
 With their teammates feeding them the ball, Hollmann and Bay CTS then went on a scoring spree. Each sank five field goals in the half, while the entire five checked closely, holding Douglas to three field goals. Manning was credited with two of these and Hayes one. Bonner's free throw and the one

col. UMBIA FALLS DOWNS
LIBBY TERRIERS

A flock of Sophomore substitutes did
what the main string failed to do and
that was score on the Falls quintet.
When the substitutes were sent into
the game in the last quarter the score
stood 80 to for Columbia Falls but
when the game ended they had scored
II more points and brought the score
up to Is by the end of the game. The
final score was 81 to Is.
The Falls started the scoring with
four shots from near the center OF the
floor and were never headed during
the entire game. All of the Falls players
were death on their long shots and had
a defense that the Terriers could not
penetrate, except at long intervals.
The main string were too slow IN
getting started to penetrate this de-
Tense but the Sophomores worked the
ball in fast and were able to score.
They made a gallant attempt in the
last quarter but were unable to defeat
the lanky boys from Columbia Falls
Clapper was high point man of the
game with ii points and Phillips OF
Libby was high for Libby with 6.

American League Race Proving
Duplicate of 1881, With Yanks,
Instead of AS, Topping Field

Boulevard. Grizzled old-timers tell you
that it will win the title by anywhere
from 10 to Is games.
1t may and it may not, but it has
the chance to do so and looks as If 1t
will make good on the chance. And the
interesting part of it all is that the
team now is identically what it was at
the end of the season of 1881. Lazzert
is back at second and Sewell at third,
with Larry at short. The pitching Is
better and the Yankees are spread
eagling their league.
The Yankees have enough reserve
material to hold them in the race un-
less there is an epidemic Of sprained
ankles and broken legs. And the sched-
ule for 1882, which Immediately sent
the three strongest teams Of the league
to the top, has sandbagged Boston,
which still has a chance to beat all
records for the most games lost during
a season.

BY GEORGE CHADWICK.

NEW YORK, June 28.-The Ameri-
can League race at the end OF June
will be almost duplicate OF what 1t
was in 1881, except that New York will
lead this year in place Of Philadelphia.
The American League club owners
are in the same frame of mind as they
were at this time last season.
They want a cure for comet.
Were a little head and all tail, "
said Bob Quinn of Boston, and Bob
should know Ever since the Ameri-
can League championship got the habit
of settling down in the East we've been
head and the tail has swung out be-
hind, like comet. And the tail doesn't
wag the head"
THE American League folks consulted
l. among themselves and agreed
pretty directly that they would
help Boston if they could. But they
didn't give the Red Sox any star
players. That wouldn't do. The public
would resent it. especially If 1t hap
pened at this time Of the year. Look
too much like fixing up the early ar
rangements for prize fight. BY next
year some trades may be made by which
Boston can get little first aid.
Base ball fans know that the schedule
under which the American League
essayed to play this year brought to-
gether the Eastern teams in bunch.
Joe MCCARTHY, the smart manager
of the Yankees, saw 1t coming.
Many, many days before the season
started he was talking about possibili-
ties of 1882. He said: This years
schedule beats me. New York, Wash
ington and Philadelphia complete the
bulk of their work before the Fourth of
July"
too?"
"Yes, but suppose Boston hasn't much
of ball club. what's going to happen
to it?"
Get trimmed"
"Surest thing you know Don't you
suppose that these eastern clubs are
going to put their best foremost as
quickly as they can? This season is for
the early bird to catch the worm in the
American League. If any club can get
a big lead by the first Of July 1t can
nurse 1t through the Summer and early
Fall. If it holds it. then that club will
take the championship with some ease
and have strength left to win the world
series"
rs that what the Yankees are going
to do?"
81 don't know what this team can do
any more than you. Maybe it's a
pretty good ball club. I don't have to
sit in the corner and write kilograms
every night asking for better ball play
ers. But I don't know that it is stable
enough to hold on, even if it does get
lead.
EEELING their way little slowly at
l.. first, the Yankees have located the
entrance route the Athletics found
last year. Now the team Is on Pennant
