To keep the State Department fully
Informed of the hourly events arising
out of the Franco-German crisis,
orders were issued today to American
embassies, legations and consulates in

tary of State Phillips, directed diplo-
matte and consulate chiefs to grant
leaves Of absence "only in cases of abb
solute necessity" in order that the
State Department may be informed OF
significant developments at the earliest
possible moment.
The action does not necessarily mean
that trouble is expected in Europe, but
was taken as precautionary measure
to prevent further weakening of al
ready undermanned STATS, officials ex-
planned. Orders of a similar nature
have been given in the past to Amer
lean representatives in countries where
extraordinary political or diplomatic
tension existed. The order will be
effective for an indefinite period.
After his second conference in a
week with President Roosevelt yester-
day. Robert w. Bingham, Ambassador
to Great Britain, now here on leave
stated he did not regard war in Europe
as likely in the near future, but he
made no comment today as to whether
the latest developments in London and
Paris had led him to change his atti-
tude.

ceived during the past few days from

PITCHERS ARE TOUCHED UP IN
 HARD MANNER
Moose and Douglas Teams Swing P4.s in Great
 Fashion Last Night
By Pap

Mother! Don't ever raise your boy to be a baseball pitcher.
 Last evening the Moose and Douglas teams climbed on the see-saw and for seven innings clout- ed three hurlers for four home runs, five doubles, one triple and nine singles, with the Islanders coming out on top by putting across a tally in the last of the seventh for ten to nine edge.
 The Moose seemed to think the arm nsightier than the bat in Douglas half of the fourth, and tried to show the Island lads how to get real distance with a base ball. Before they finished throw ing the ball out of the park, the Islanders had added five runs and gone into an eight to six lead
 First Scoring
 The Paps scored first, Fritz Schmitz climbing aboard second on a muffed throw at first, going to third on Forsythe's long fly to cen ter and coming across when Rogers repeated Forsythe's move. But the Islanders really came back in their half of the opener. Jensen led off with triple, Erskine followed with a homer, and Andrews hit another four-baser. The next two batters famed, but Douglas had a three to one lead.
 Manning, Douglas starting pitch CT, retired in the second in favor of Erskine when Jack Schmitz opened the second with homer, followed by Grummett with double through the center field fence. Erskine whiffed the next batter but flaw kins drove Grummett home with a single and the count was knot ted.
 Score Three More
 The Paps got three more in the first of the fourth to take a six to three edge. Grummett and Wer- ner doubled, Werner beat the throw to the plate on Whites roller, White being safe at first and going to sec ond when Erskine wild pitched. Fritz Schmitz flied out but For sythe brought White home with a single to left which Mcdonald fum- bled. However the Islanders came right back with their big inning going to the front again on five Pap wild heaves and Jensen's cir cult smack
 Nothing daunted, the Black Sox squared the count again in the fifth making two Douglas pebbles, a wild pitch and a safety good for

CAME TONIGHT,
 1 FOR SUNDAY,
 LOCAL DIAMOND
Islanders Meet Veterans Tonight -Paps, Legion
 Tangle Tomorrow

Two games that will go a long way toward settling the tangle in which the second half of the Gas tineau Channel League pennant race finds itself are salted for this weekend.
 Tonight at o'clock, instead of at 630, the Douglas Islanders, vic tors last night over the Moose and now heading the standings, meet the hottom rung Legionnaires.
 If the Islanders win tonights contest they cannot be beaten for the second half, tie with them being the best that any other team can get, and the only team that can get that will be the Moose. To- night is Douglas last scheduled game However, the Vets have been hitting a nice pace of late and it would not surprise if they were to take the Douglas outfit, which will be without the hurling services of it's ace, Claude Erskine, who chucked last night. Mark Jensen vs. Ward McAlister is likely the way the mound choices will line up, and it must be remembered that Ward has snapped out of his trance and won his last two games to a win tonight, it will leave the second half still a wide open race, every team having a mathematical chance to tie the Islanders and the Moose with chance to win if they can cop their last two matches.
 Sunday Come
 Tomorrow afternoon at 5:30 O. clock the Legion will take on the second place Moose. They must win that game in order to stay in the running, but may have their troubles as they dropped one to the Vets in the two teams last meet ing. A win for the Legion tonight and tomorrow would leave them and the Elks a chance to tie Doug las, but would put the Moose out of it. A loss for the Legion Sun day would stow their ball season away Battery choices for Sun days game are still well up in the air.
 Both games will be played in the Firemen's Park in Juneau.

the champion when they meet. He has won a dozen fights since he was decisively beaten by Canzoneri. His victory over Frankie Klick put him back in the running for the cham pionship.
 Against Canzoneri last year Am bers could not seem to forget that he was facing the idol of his early boxing days and the result was that Lou suffered a bad case of buck fever" and showed none of the whirlwind attack for which he is famous. But Lou has botten over all that, or, at least, so he claims.
 This time Tony will be just an- other fighter, and one that I feel sure can lick" Lou says.
 And don't think that tough fight Tony had with Jimmie McLarnin is going to make him any tougher for me-" the challenger goes on. "A fellow doesn't recover as quickly after the years pile up as he did when he was a kid.
 "Cdnsoneri Won't Last"
 What I saw of Canzoneri in that fight convinced me that he is just about ready to be taken. He was dog tired at the end of ten rounds, so how do you think he will be able to carry on for Is at the fast clip at which I am going to take him along?"
 We weren't answering questions just listening. So we let Amb- CTS continue.
 T have hunch that I will knock Tony out this time. Now don't laugh-I'm serious about it. In half of the last dozen fights I've had I've knocked out my opponents. That proves I've developed bit of punch, I guess"
 One of Ambers' knockout victims was the late Tony Scarpati Tony died after his head struck the floor when Lou floored him in the 7th round of their contest. Ambers was cleared but in a moment of regret immediately following the unfor- tunate accident announced that he was quitting the ring for good. In time he got over that feeling and appeared at a show for the benefit of Scarpati's family. After a brief rest he resumbed his climb to the spot where he earned another chance at the lightweight title.

two markers. F. Schmitz' single followed by Forsythe's sacrifice and Rogers double put the Moose out ahead once more, scoring Schmitz for a nine to eight margin. Then Douglas came right back to even it again Picinini hit Mcdonald with a pitched ball, went to second on Niemi's infield out. and counted on Rollers single.
 Nine TdllieS Each
 That sent the ball game into the last inning with the count all even
 nine runs per each. The Moose went down before Erskine one-t two- three in their half to put the mat ter up to Douglas. Douglas came through. Erskine led off with the only walk of the ball game. An drews doubled him to third, and up came Williams, who had not hit all evening With the count two and two on him, Williams drove one to the left field fence and Ersklne came across. The Moose had sor- rows to do something about.
 The only lucky pitchers last night were those that didn't have to pitch The batters seemed to know just what was coming and parked the Hurlers' best heaves in far places Manning was nicked for a homer and a double, Erskine for three doubles and five safeties, Picinini for three four -basers, one three baser, one double and four singles and that with all three chuckers showing good control and a lot of stuff. The earned runs count shows that Tal Picinini had the game heaved away behind him. He allowed only five right and proper scores while the two Douglas hurl- CTS let in six
 Mark Jensen was big batter of the day, getting a homer and a triple in four times up. Andrews got a homer and double out of four Grummett got two doubles, Jack Schmitz and Claude Erskine got homerS.
 AS one feminine spectator re- marked, Why didn't they pass the hat again? I'd have given them an other dime for this game.

SPORT SLANTS

Lou Ambers mopped the perspir- ation from his brow, took a deep breath and told why he thought he would be wearing the light weight crowd after his bout with Tony Canzoneri.
 Tony is grand little fighter one of the best of his weight to show in recent years, but even Tony can't go on forever. The re- cord book says that Tony was born in 1905. :. That makes me ex- actly eight years younger than he. I have improved in the last year, while the wear and tear of all of his fights must have taken some thing from him, something the added experience at this stage of his career cannot offset.
 Sure, he gave me boxing les son when we fought for the title a little over a year ago. But he won't do it again. I learned a lot from Tony that evening in May, and plenty about him, too. I don't mind being the shortender in this fight. :. not after the way fa- vorites have been taking it on the chin this year."
