Weather Permitting, Two Teams Will Fight It Out
 on Local Diamond

Douglas the the Legion baseball teams will shoot the works" to- morrow evening in their first meet ing of the 1886 pennant chase The victor will climb into undisputed leadership of the Channel Base ball League and will have big edge on the other three teams in the first-half race. Both squads have won their opening games; the Legion soundly defeating the Moose in the opening game last Sunday, while the Islanders took a 5-1 de- cision over the Elks Tuesday even ing
 The Legion lineup has shown exceptional early season hitting strength, while Douglas has flash e. in the field. Both teams have had fine pitching in their first engagements, McAlister of the Le- zion having held the Moose to but three hits, and Erskine having struck out twelve men and allowed but five bingles when Douglas de- feated the Elks. The set-up prom iseS seven innings of tight base ball when the two squads tangle at 6:30 tomorrow on the Juneau diamond-with the edge going to whichever team gets the breaks.

LAND M ARKS ON BEHRENDS PLACE WILL BE RAzED
Two Houses at Sixth and Main Will Be Remov-
 ed Coming Week

Two famous Juneau landmarks are to disappear the coming week. The former Governors House and Office at Sixth and Main Streets on the B. M. Behrends property are to be torn down, according to J. F. Mullen. who is handling the mat ter. MT Mullen is now considering bids for the work and expects to let the job so that it can start the first of the week
 The big house on the corner, for merly known as the Channel Apart ments, was formerly the Governors s House when Milford B Hoggatt was Governor from 1906 to 1909 The Governors office was in the smaller house next to it. During the admin istraticn of Waiter E. Clark as Governor from 1909 to 1913 the present Governors House was built.
 The houses were originally built around 1900 for William H. Hile, Superintendent of the old Last Chance mine in Silver Bow Basin, and served as residence and offices of the Last Chance for several years.
 No new structures will be erect ed on the site, MT. Mullen said, the property being used as part of the spacious grounds now sur rounding the Behrends and Mullen homes.

season got under way, for Johnny M arcum, a newcomer from the Athletics, suffered sore arm in training camp and threw cold wat CT on the Red Sox's high hopes for pennant. Marcum was counted on to add 20 victories to the Sox total. And then to make matters even worse, a bad bounder cracked Manager Joe Cronin's thumb in one of the early games and put him out of commission for six weeks.
 The New York Yankees had to get along without the services of their prize rookie, Joe DiMaggio, for the first three weeks of the season as the result of a training camp accident Jce strained his ankle in practice and when heat treatments were resorted to he suffered a severe burn on his in- step. The injury was long time healing and the month of May rolled around before Joe broke into the lineup.
 The Cleveland Indians suffered the saddest blow of all when Bruce Campbell was stricken with cerebro spinal meningitis for the third time in ten months The 26year Told outfielder was one of the clubs leading batters and figured heavily in the clubs chances for finishing high in the standings.
 Inspiration to Team
 The entire Cleveland team had been roofing hard for Campbell to make a successful comeback after the game fight he put up for his life last summer when he suffered a similar attack. The one thing that seemed to delight Manager Steve ONeill most on the occasion of his first visit to New York this spring was to report the apparent recovery of Campbell.
 Campbell has come back better than ever He certainly licked old boy Spinal Meningitis" he was happy to tell his interviewers. "The game fight the youngster put up has been an inspiration to the other fellows on the team. The boys have the spirit it takes to win, and they are going to be mighty hard to beat"
 Campbell was hitting at a .333 clip when he was stricken. The chances are that his baseball career is ended, for his physician has hinted that it will be unwise for him to attempt to play ball again.

SPORT SLANTS

That old jinx, injuries to key players, wasted little time before striking the four leading contend CTS for the American League pen nant-Detroit, Boston, New York and Cleveland
 The Tigers have been most for tunate in the past in the matter of avoiding injuries. They have pa- raded to two consecutive pennants with their lineup practically in- tact. But this year their luck seems to be failing. Their first invasion of the East, and their first series against an Eastern team, brought forth little but grief when Hank Greenberg and Manag Mickey Cochrane were injured.
 The loss of Greenberg, who last season was voted the most valuable player in the American League, for six or seven weeks, is a severe blow to the Tigers chances of re- beating. The big first baseman Suf- fered fracture of the left wrist the same one which kept him out of the World Series-When Jake the Washington outfielder accidentally crashed into him at first base. Cochrane's injury, which, oddly enough, was caused by the same Jake Powell, was less serious and likely to keep the Tiger boss on the bench for only a week or SO. A foul tip from Powell's bat struck Mickey on the instep, and he had to be carried off the field.

MAN SENDS WIFE RUBBER CHECKS
New Yorker Ordered to Forward Money Orders
 HencefOrth By M'Grath

City court has no liking for checks that bounce, Judge John F. Me- Grath declared today during non- support hearing given Richard Lane, 26, of Amenia, N. Y. After testimony had been offered that checks sent by Lane to his wife in this city were sent back by the bank, Judge McGrath ordered Lane to send money orders in the future. The mans wife told the court that several times in the past year checks sent to her by her husband had bounced" and that in addition her husband was two months in ar- rears on his payments of $l2 monthly. Probation Officer Emil Hummel also testified to the rub Der" checks and said he'd warned Lane about them several times.
 Lanes defense was that he gave the money to his employer at Amenia and that the latter made out the checks. He promised to send money orders in the future.
 Lane said the farm where he works is eight miles from the near est town. He was arrested there by Detectives Edward McElligott and John Leary.

TOWNSEND CASE
 IS UNFINISHED

Washington, May 26-(UP)--New difiiculties besst house old age pen- sion investigators today in the at- tempt to punish Dr. Francis E. Townsend for bolting their inquiry into his $200-a-month pension scheme. House leaders believed the retired physician should be disci- plined to maintain sanctity of con- gressional investigations. They feared, however, that immediate ci- tation of the pension leader for con- tempt of the house might:
 i. Make a martyr" of the doctor.
 3. Delay congressional adjourn ment.
 3. Give Townsendites an excuse for asking contributions to $l6O.0OO defense fund.-"
 The last possibility added most to headaches of committee members who have been split on procedure since Townsend disrupted their in- vestigation by walking out.
