ART LASKY TO TAKE ON HAMAS
 DURING M 0 N I H
Young Westerner in New York Has Plans to
 Co After Baer

NEW YORK, Sept. 8.-Out of
 he West few that young larrup-
 nvar, Art Lasky-who is so Jewish
 hat 'een my dog don't eat ham"
 to launch crusade against Max
 Baer, who, he charges, is just Hebrew pretender" on the leavyHeight throne.
 The tall, ir-skinned mauler with the elongated proboscis and curly brown hair certainly put the b-ast on Baer, just as soon as he recovered his landlegs after the flight from Los Angeles.
 Although Angular Artie is in own to enter his bid as challenger in a fifteen-rounder with Steve Hamas on September 27, he eX- pressed little interest in that brawl. Instead he failed the champion all over his hotel room.
 BOX office Jew"
 Just box-office Jew" Lasky charged. The percentage of He brow blood in Baer's veins is not
 lcsrly as large as the challenger's ut he got fer the Camera fight. Why. he doesn't even observe the holidays
 But it won't be long now before a genuine Jew, named Lasky, as- sumes the throne once occupied by that great Hebrew battler, Dan Mendoza, he assured. He figured to take Steve Hamas and then Max Schmeling in his stride Where after Max Adelbert Raer would get the worst licking of his career. Lasky, who originally hailed from Evansville and Minneapolis Minn., arrived with his brown spotted terrier "Pooch," for whom he has supreme affection. Maurice Lasky, his brother-manager, and Gig" Rooney, veteran trainer and advisor, had preceded Art by train. Preliminary Training Packing slightly more than 200 pounds on his six foot two and one-half inch frame, the Western walloper will start preliminary workouts at Stillman's Gymnasium Later he will go into intensive training probably at Ferndale, N. Y. He plans to enter the ring at about 197, giving him about a sev- en-pound advantage over Hamas. This bout will mark Arts first Eastern appearance since he de- feated Hans Birkie unimpressively at Madison Square Garden ir March, 1883.
 Trainer Rooney, who handled in various capacities Ad Wolgast, Jess Willard, Barney Ross and Jackie Fields, claimed Lasky is the best "all-round fighter" he ever saw. He emphasized that B knockouts | in A fights is an impressive rec ord, which is blemished by only one defeat.

far this year or II points higher than the 1883 Quaker outfit.
 More difficult to explain is the falling off in batting among such hard drivers as Chick Hafey, Wally Berger, Pepper Martin, Wes Schul- merich and Riggs Stephenson but they are, it is true, the exceptions.
 Bill Terry is enjoying one of his biggest years, pacing the entire list, while hisc leanup ace, Mel Ott, is hitting about 30 points higher than in 193. Joe Moore, another Giant beneficiary of the livelier sphere, is up 50 points. Dick Bar tell, Paul Waner, Joe Medwick, Jim Collins, Arky Vaughan and Kiki Cuyler, all have increased their batting marks from Is to 50 points

PITCHING IS BETTER

The epidemic of great pitching this year, in both major leagues is the most curious by-product of the livelier ball. More hurlers are at or near the 20-victory class than any season we can recall in the last decade, led by Dizzy Dean in the National and Lefty Gomez in the Ameican. At least a dozen should touch or go well beyond this mark, including such freshman sensa- tions as Curtis Davis of the Phil lies and Paul Dean of the Cardi- nals, as well as the youthful De- troit ace, Schoolboy Rowe, whose remarkable winning streak in his first full major league year lis the years No. pitching stunt.

STRIPP IS SPIKED
 ON HIS OWN BENCH

BROOKLYN, Sept. 8.-The lat est stunt of the rollicking Flat bush crew known as the Brooklyn Dodgers is the injury of Jersey Joe Stripp in his own dugout.
 Joe was watching the play on the field from a safe seat on the bench when Pitcher Emil Leonard came tumbling down the steps. His spikes cut through Joe's stocking, stripping his heel of some precious flesh. Stripp was not able to fin- ish the game.

THE HITLESS WONDERS

You've probably heard em cali the Giants the "hitless wonders during their sensational gallop to the top last year. In many respect, they earned the label, for it was pitching and the breaks" that carried the club through the rough est part of the pennant tourney.
 This year Bill Terry's outfit is slugging at a 283 pace yet it is still no better than fifth in the league list,
 Consequently the fact that the Giants still are on top, with an ex- cellent chance of staying there, must be attributed again to their superior pitching staff.

Wat con, who returned home yester- day after a weekend visit to the property. The company owns 52 claims and will spend the entire summer prospecting the area with a Keystone drill.
 The drill was landed sometime ago. It was assembled on a bench above the river and tested, and moved to the river today.
 It will sink it's first holes on q bar in tile river just opposite the Pleasant Camp roadhouse, owned by Jack White, who is one of the heaviest stockholders in the dredg- ing company.

 SET FOR TOMORROW

 Efforts to locate relatives were unavailing, and a wireless message sent to the address of nephew. found in letter in Leshapelle's effects, was returned because the party had moved from that ad- dress.

BAKERIES SHOW FAR SIGHTE DNESS WITH
 BIG SUPPLY ORDERS

While all Le-.er:es or Juneau have sufficient flour, shortening sugar, etc, on hand to see them through until the arrival of more from the south, they as well as other merchants of the city, are feeling the effects of the strike. Practically all of them, however, were farsighted enough to place big orders of everything to avoid shortage.
 Star Bakery reports that while they have plenty of flour, butter and eggs, they will be short soon if further supplies don't arrive. The real shortage they are feeling is in preparing menus for lunches and dinners served at the bakery, they explained. Fixing menus is problem, we have enough ham for today, but what we will serve tomorrow is question"
 Henry Meier, proprietor of the Peerless Bakery said he has plenty of everything to last at least two more weeks and has even been lending butter to those less forum ate. T always keep a large sup ply of flour and other necessities on hand, but am now lower than at any previous time,' he declared.
 The San Francisco Bakery has no particular reason to be worried for at least another week as their supply of flour, shortening and other things used in the baking of bread, cakes, cookies and so forth, will hold out easily until July Is, according to Henry Messerschmidt.
 Henry Sully, proprietor of the Juneau Bakery, said they will feel no concern for some time as there is enough flour, sugar, raisins, entrants, shortening, etc, on hand to last for more than ten days.

TRUITT MOTION
 TO DISMISS IS
 NOT SUSTAINED
Territory Given Ten Days Further Time to Plead
 in Pension Suit

Federal Judge G. F. Alexander yesterday afternoon overruled a motion by James s. Truitt, Terri torial Attorney General, to dismiss the suit of Charles Demmert against w. G. Smith, Treasurer, seeking to tie up all Territorial pension and relief funds. The At torney General was given 10 days additional time in which to plead or otherwise move against the ac- ton.
 The suit was brought early last month by Demmert, a Klawock business man, through w. L. Paul, local attorney, to enjoin MT. Smith from making any further disburse- ment of Territorial pension and relief funds. It alleges all such appropriations are illegal.
 Tn the case of Lily Scott, local Indian woman, seeking writ of mandamus against Gov. w. Troy to compel him to grant her a mothers pension, Judge Alexander yesterday afternoon sustained 8 demurrer against the amended com plaint. The Court ruled from the bench that it docs not state facts sufficient upon which to base the relief sought" A demurrer to the original complaint was sustained several weeks ago by Judge Alex ander.

R. D. BAKER LOOKING INTO DOCK PLANS FOR
 STANDARD OIL HERE.

R. D. Baker, Substation Sales Superintendent for the Standard Oil Company, in Alaska, is spend- ing some time in Juneau for the purpose of estimating costs and determining the most feasible method of handling the Standard oil docking facilities here when the present dock is no longer usable for large steamers due to the Alaska Juneau tailings which are rapidly filling in the shore line. It is now estimated that the present dock will be practically dry within two more years.
 While several alternatives have been looked into, it is probable that the tanks and equipment will be left in their present location on the Thane Road and arrangements made to handle large steamers at some other dock of the city, MT. Baker said. This is because of the great expense which would be in- vclved in building another plant. If this plan is followed, facili- ties for handling small boats would be retained at the present dock as long as is possible, he de- clared.
 Among the other plans which have been under consideration, is the building of new dock and plant on Douglas Island or upon the tide flats adjoining Willoughby Avenue Both of these latter plang would be expensive and neither would be entirely satisfactory, MT. Baker said today It is for this reason that the probable solution will be to leave things much as they are with docking facilities arranged at one of the Juneau wharves, he said
