Glass of Beer, Says Sourdough,
 Down from North
Seattle Times )

Gust Johanson, who should have been gaping with wonder at the march of civilization past the win dow, wasn't impressed at all. The 69-year- Sourdough of Kotzebue just ordered another glass of beer.
 Street cars rumbled past the Sec ond Avenue lunchroom and beer garden, where Johnson sat ycster- day afternoon. Sleek limousines slipped by. Modishly attired wo- men hurried along. But it was no use waiting for this grizzled Alas kan to take much notice.
 I'll get around and see things pretty soon" he said T have to buy some clothes first
 Johanson was attired yesterday in the same heavy clothes he wore down on the boat the other day after his first trip out of Alaska in thirty eight years That's thirty eight years.
 Johanson sailed north in 1898 from San Francisco, after coming from Minnesota. He is seeing &c., attle for the first time. Johanson. after thirty eight years of mining and prospecting in the mountains and rivers of Alaska, got so that he could get along without cities. In fact, he didn't visit Nome, the nearest city to his erations, for a fifteen-year spell And he came "out" only after friends per suaded him it would help his rheu- matism
 T feel all right" he conceded, "but think I'll go back in the spring '
 After he buys his new clothes, Johanson will hole up" for the winter in Stellacoom. He hasn't much to worry about. He brougl6 sizeable amount of gold dust with him, and his properties in Alaska are under lease and being worked by big gold companies. l Only when two fire trucks went screaming around the corner did Johanson turn his stolid face to the window for a moment Then he studied neon sign and finished his beer.

DisarnlS Critics

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 12-"Red" Strader, one of St. Mary's greats and now backfield coach of his alma mater, didn't like it when some bay area newspapers said he called signals from the bench. In answer to his critics, Strader didn't smoke or wear a hat when St. Mary's beat Loyola the next time cut. He was supposed to have tip ped eff signal calls by the angles of his hat or cigar.

GREELEY, Colo, Nov. 12.-Ever see a striped ball used in a foot ball game?
 Brigham Young University of Provo, Utah, used one in scoring 6 33-0 win over Greeley State Col lege this season.
 B. Y. us players wore white jerseys, so a white ball was out. Greeley States warriors wore brown pants and purple shirts, which made the regulation brown pigskin impractical.
 So they compromised by painting white bands around a brown ball.

SPORT SLANTS

Loyal follc,-ers af the New For, Rangers will not recognize their favorites when they skate out on the ice this fall At least, not if Lester Patrick goes through with his plans to use all the young blood available to inject new life into the battle-worn team.
 Bun Cook has moved on to Bos- ton. His brother Bill is not likely to see much action as he has talk en over the role of assistant coach to Patrick Just how much Frank Boucher will be able to play re- mains to be seen. Boucher frac- turned an ankle and, while the wounded member apparently has healed, no one knows how it will stand up under the strain of play ing. After all, Frank is no longer a youngster so far as athletic con- petition is concerned. He is 34 years old and has been skating around the ice for long, long time.
 Even Old Ching Johnson, who seemed to go on and on, appears to have reached the stage when he can no longer be counted a regu- lar As a matter of fact, Patrick offered the 39-year-old Johnson a contract this fall for the service he might be able to offer as a coach rather than as an active player. Ching would be available for an occasional bit of service on the firing line. And he would do better than all right in an emer- gency.
 With powerful defensive young sters like Art Coulter, Ott Heller Babe Pratt and Joe Cooper on hand to take care of things it is unlikely that Johnson would be called on more often than he could stand The youngsters give the Rangers one of the strongest back line squads in the National hockey circuit.
 Hcckey's Lou Gehrig"
 Manager Patrick is counting heavily on Murray Murdock for re- lief purposes just as he has for the past several years. Murdock, one of the most durable athletes tht rugged game of hockey has evel known, shows no signs of slowing

up despite his amazing "iron-man' record.
 For the past 10 years, since he joined the Rangers in 1926, Mur- dock has not missed league game He will come close to his 600th consecutive game some time this season-a mark never before even approached by any other player.
 Murdock is 31 years old and has been playing hockey since 1924. He explained the University of Mani toba team when it won the Memor- lial Cup, emblematic of the junior championship of Canada. His first professional experience was with Winnipeg where he played with ithe Maroons in 1924-'25, until the Rangers purchased him. He played two full seasons with the Winnipeg Maroons without missing a con- test. These really should be added to his consecutive string.
 Wall Street Job
 Murdock is boring type of player, which makes his record all the more amazing. His forte is as defensive forward, and he does
 his best work in that capacity when his team is one or more men short. He has the knack of being able to blanket high scorer by
 playing him closely. He has the
 speed to match even the fastest
 skaters. For example, Charley Con-
 acher, one of the leagues best

 Murdock is probably the most Americanized of all Canadian-bo players. He makes his home in Flushing, L. I, the year round He intends to settle in this country when active playing days are over He is one of those ambitious fel- lows who has an eye to the future. In the off season he works in an investment house in Wall Street and has hopes of making it a permanent job.
