CHICAGO, H., Oct. 12.-Philip K. Wrigley, owner of the Chicago Cubs, is determined to make a real cham pionship team out of the Cubs.
 Gabby Hartnett's announcement of a shake-up, is ridiculous, said Wrigley who said he offered Hart nett a one-year contract only.
 Wrigley plans to trade veteran players rather than the younger men and he will also start CO., operative ownership system of farm teams.

Krausc Squad Shows List of Possible Talent
 All Teams Strong

Two score of basketball players, nearly ell of them good timber, turned out in the high school sym nasium last night for the seasons first workout.
 Tor the first practice session Of the season the ball handlers were in unusually good form and it looks much as though this years basket ball will be, without any stretch of the imagination, one of the best Juneau has ever witnessed.
 Too early to pick out any stars, with practices scheduled for tonight and Thursday night. managers are holding fire on their. choices until after Friday nights conference
 OutRarclly, t appeared as though the two teams to watch this year, are the Miners. composed Of vet eians Lindstrom, Bayers, Nelson, and Manthey plus new talent. and last years loWly KHause boys.
 Job Is Question
 If Krause manager Jim Barrie can find former Tulsa Oiler for ward Leonard Bishop a bread and butter job somewhere, Bishop will cast his talent into the Krause lineup bat then there's the chance that some other manager will find Bishop Q job, and he won't be wearing Q Krause suit at the open ing gun.
 If that happens, this prediction may be all wet, but still there are two players who have promise in the Erause lineup One is Eddie Robson. a newcomer from Califor- mia where he was a high school star and is now said to be holding scholarship offers from casaba-am- bilious colleges.
 Robson may be flash in the pan, but like Bishop, he handles the ball well with both hands, apparently shoots accurately (though the sea- sons just begun), he plays on his toes, is moving forward all the time when he shoots, and seems to have speed.
 More Talent
 And Krause has another man who may and may not De good. He's an Indian from the Dakotas, the tall stringy type of player who looks like he can cover "a lot of the maple in the shortest space of time without unusual effort. His pro record of ten years implies he is classy as well as his build but then we're just guessing on looks, and this veteran Herbert Barnes may be another flash in the pan
 EIks' Aggregation
 The Elks, who won the pennant in the playoff last year, have the same strong aggregation out for the most part, and look strong with Dick May, Bob Daylin and Dale Druliner in suits.
 However, the Elks are doubtful whether or not little sharpshooter Roy Smith will return for Juneau play this year, and of course, Ginsberg has left these parts. The Elks are question mark.
 Fred Jennings outfit, managed by Eddie Lawson. has a basketball of new talent that was at the wrong end of the floor fir obserya- ton last night. but they will defin- itely be a strong squad.
 Bremen Not Shaped

 "For Time
 B cling" "

Denial that the Citizens Good Government Association of Wa terbury, Inc, intended "at the present time' to become "a politi- cal party" was made after meet ing at which vote was taken on the proposal.
