Heapy Duty "Alaska'' Pack Boards, Made Here, Winning
 Fame, Singapore to BarroW

boards, according to the figures given him by his customers, is about 10 pounds. Many of them carry 125 pounds as regular occurrence. One man who ordered eight of them said the boards were for himself and seven others working on con- tract, packing supplies into place so difficult to reach that they re- ceive 30 cents pound for the job And he said that 125 pounds is the lightest load they pack MT. Liston reported, "and that some times they load down with as much as ITS pounds"
 Used by Forestry Bureau
 These boards have been bought by the U. s. Forestry Service, by large Alaska mining companies, and some for the U. s. Army.
 MT. Liston made special board for Captain Nichols, from Chilkoot barracks, near Haines, and the army officer told him that tests showed it much more satisfactory for AL aska conditions.
 Captain Nichols has also worked with MT Liston on the design of a sleeping bag with a half-sized pup tent built around it. It is planned to build the sleeping bag into the floor of the tent, which will be staked on the four corners, and have a ridge-pole cord guyed at one end so that the entrance end will take a tent shape. The roof of the tent will slope down to the ground at the foot end.
 Special for Ski Club
 The latest refinement in the pack boards has been developed for a member of the Juneau Ski Club, who wanted knapsack built into the pack, and sealed so that even in spill the contents can be kept dry. The knapsack is intended par ticularly to carry a camera. MT. Liston is now making up this pack, using zipper closing with an extra flap over the zippers.

METCALE COMES OUT ON TOP IN ELKS' PIN WARS
Jim Barragar Pushes Lead CT as Rutgers, Lafayette
 and Cornell Win

Frank Metcalf came within eight pins of Jim Barragar's record total at the Elks last evening in the conference bowling, with score of sos that included PA and a PIP game. But Barragar was right there, to defend his laurels, and, although he did not quite head off Metcalfs scoring spree, he got the second spot total of 575, and took high for single game by a wide margin, with fine 234; Metcalf's 2l4 being next in line.
 Rutgers took three games in a row from Harvard, in the opening match, but Lafayette, after taking the first game on Barragar's big score, dropped the second game to Yale, then came back to edge out the Bulldogs in the deciding con test. Even with Metcalf's big help, Cornell had no easy time with Princeton. Although the Ithacans took three straight games, the Tigers fought all the way and lost each game by a close score
 Paens of praise must also be bestowed upon Mrs. Lavenik, who rolled up 521 match total and a POS single game
 This evenings matches in the conference playoffs, bring together Syracuse against Erie, at 7:3O; M l. T. tangles with Bowdoin at 8.3O and Susquehanna and Drake cross swords at 9:30.

SPORT SLANTS

Six baseball writers from Major League cities put their heads and votes together and named Carl Hubbell, the New York Giants fa- nous screwball pitcher, as the play CT most valuable to his team during the 1886 National League pennant race
 The selection of Hubbell as the most valuable player made an all- New York affair of the valuable contest. Baseball writers on the American League circuit picked Lou Gehrig's New York Yankees iron man, as the most valuable player in the junior circuit.
 The choice of Hubbell was fore gone conclusion The slender left handler was the biggest factor in bringing the pennant to the Giants. His amazing string of victories IS straight during the league sea- son-brought his summers total to 26, against six losses. From July 13 until the Yankees caught up with Carl in the fourth game of the World Series his screwball moved them all down and not a single de- feat was charged to him.
 Gehrig 4 Cinch, Too
 Once again Lou Gehrig played in every game his team entered and hit more home runs than any other American League slugger. So it was natural that he should win the nod of approval from the scribes. Geh- rig has always been a great team player. Serious and hard working he goes about the chores with a determination to make every game a winning one. His heavy hitting breaks up many ball game and played big part in the runaway race the Yankees staged in the American League.
 Both Hubbell and Gehrig have known before now the thrill of be- ing selected as the most valuable players on their respective circuits -Hubbell in 1933; and Gehrig ir 1927.
 Winning the most valuable player award may be old stuff to the Hub- bells and to the GehrigS, but to Wee Willie Ludolph, veteran Coast League pitcher, winning the title of most valuable in his league was a distinct thrill
 Last year that title helped make Joe Di Maggie famous. Perhaps il will bring 6 bit of recognition to Ludolph, whose 17th season in or ganized baseball was record of 2l victories and six defeats.
 Had Chance in Majors
 The title is a mythical one con- ferred by vote of Coast sports writ CTS. Last year there was little di- vision of opinion over Di Maggie but Ludolph barely nosed out his nearest rival, Johnny Frederick, oi the Portland Beavers.
 Ludolph, often called "The Thir Man" has been with Oakland fol six years. He is a product of St Mary's college and broke in with the
