There have never been but
three jockeys other than Kurt
singer on the Admiral. M. Peters
rode him in the first race he ever
ran. J. Westrope rode him twice
after that and w. Wright was
astride him once in his three-year-
old form. The rest of the time,
the son of Man O. War has gone
to the post with Kurtsinger
aboard.
Owner Charles S. Howard has
announced that Seabiscuit will
not start again in the East this
season. In all probbility this sec
ton will never see the champion
again, for he is slated to retire to
Mr.. Towards California stud as
soon as he has torn down Sun
Beau's world money-winning rec.

owner Howard have agreed that
the son of Hardtack will not &C

pounds. So any racing secretary

BEARS, TROJANS
IN DOC FIGHT"
FOR ROSE BOWL.
BY RALPH B. JORDAN

LOS ANGELES. Nov. % G.N.S0.
Unless other sections of the coun-
try are mighty polite, they must
be chuckling over the fight that's
going on out this way between
the University of Southern Cali
fornia Trojans and the University
of California Golden Bears for the
privilege" of representing the
Pacific Coast in the annual Rose
Bowl game at Pasadena next New
Year Day.
The word privilege" is in
quotes because the Bears and Tro-
jams seem to be like couple of
fellows fighting for the privilege"
of going to the guilotine, the heavy
knife in this case being any good
invading team like Notre Dame,
Texas Christian, Tennessee, Duke,
Pitt, or Minnesota.
BATTLE RACES
That's the way it appears to
neutral observers on the coast,
who think that any of the top
teams from elsewhere could proba
bly, take both the battling coast
entries into the bowl and knock
their heads together.
Meanwhile, the struggle between
Bears and TrojanS RACES for the
bowl bid. California has closed its
coast conference season with one
defeat. U. S. c. likewise has been
whipped once in the conference
and plays U. C. L. A. Thanksgiving
Day. The Trojans are heavy
favorites.
The ten conference schools are
slated to ballot next Monday to
choose the coast entry and. if U. S.
C. gets by U. C. L. A. and still is
tied with California at that time,
the howl that will go up from the
losing camp will be something.
Both Bears and Trojans have fig
ured out more reasons than a
Philadelphia lawyer why each
should get the plum.
$4,000 PLUM
But a glance at their records
leaves coast grid enthusiasts cold
over the chances of either to cap
ture whoever accepts the invaders
role from East, Midwest or South.
The enthusiasts feel the invaders
this time ought to be willing to
pay their own way West, there's
such a juicy bit of fruit to be
shaken from the bowl tree with
such little shake: It's a $240,000
plum, split three ways, to be exact.
California. for example, barely
nosed out st. Mary's. The Bears
also were outplayed by Washing
ton and Stanford, both fumbling
California into victories. And then
the U. S. C. game. The Bears not
only were beaten, but didn't even
belong in the same league with
the Trojans, that day.
'WOR is US"
Well, that's one coast pride.
The other, the once-awesome
Trojans. didn't bat any higher.
Alabama whaled the daylights
out of them, Washington did
likewise, U. C. L. A. might, and
their prospects for their final
game, against the Nations No. l
squad, Metre Dame, are not spark
ling, to put it mildly. If they get
into the bowl, they'll likely be
draped with three previous de-
feats.
Coast enthusiasts, as they con-
template the coming first day of
1889, are indeed wailing, woe
Is u.s.

DROPS BONDING BILL
 FOR SESSION
No Time to Hold Hearings Delegate Says in Aband-
 oning Effort to Get Funds

WASHINGTON, May 25.-Dele- gate Anthony J. Dimond has aban- doned his efforts to gain passage at this session of the bill authoriz- ing two million dollars for public works in Alaska. It has been ap- proved by the House and is now be- fore the Senate Territories commit tee.
 There has been a good deal of opposition to the bill in Alaska Chambers of Commerce which seem to be generally opposed to it." Di- mond said There simply would not be time to arrange hearings and give notice to interested persons and give those persons in Alaska time to get here."
 The Delegate said he introduced the bill hoping to enable Alaska to obtain Federal funds under the new spending and lending program
 T figured if we could get two million of our own it ought to mean about five million more in Federal funds which would give us a good start on airport and road programs we need" Dimond said.

STRONG PROTEST
 MADE AGAINST 8 A. M. CLOSING
Property Owners on Lower Franklin St. Oppose Stay
 ing Open After l AIM.

Strong proteoo against permitting beverage dispensaries to remain op- en in Juneau after am. was heard at a public hearing held last night by the Police Committee of the City Council in the Council Chamber. The protest was in reply to the pro- posed new liquor ordinance which is now before the Council and which would permit all beverage places to remain open until am. during the summer months.
 Judge H. B. LeFevre appeared in ehalf of 37 petitioners from lower Franklin street, mostly property owners in that section, urging the Council not to permit places to keep open after l am. and asking that no music be allowed in dispen- saries, particularly in the morning hours up to noon because of the dis turbance to persons working nights who sleep during those hours.
 Bessie M. Reeder, operator of the Northern Beer Hall, complained of disturbances after l am. if open hours were permitted.
 Mrs. J. E. Click of the W.C.T.U., the Rev. O. L. Kendall and several others appeared against the pro- posed new ordinance which in its present form effects both beer par lors and liquor stores.
 Attorney M E. Monagle, repre- senter 12 beer parlor proprietors, urged passage of the ordinance per- mitting liquor places to keep open until 3 am. on grounds that boats come in at all hours during the sum- mer months and the tourists come ashore expecting to find these plac- es open. He also argued that the beer parlors have most of their busi- ness after show time in the evening which is short if required to close at l am
 Those represented by Monagle and asking longer open hours during the summer are: Charles Miller, Chris Bailey, w. T. Douglas, Jack Kristan, J. J. Stocker, M Bocatch, David Davis, Sam Gazalof, Emilio Galao, Burford and Botelho, Matt Loukka and J. w. Kearney.
 There was no opposition to the proposed new fireworks ordinance whcih would prohibit the sale and shooting of all kinds of fireworks within the city limits.
 On the Police committee are Councilman Henry Messerschmidt, John Mccormick and Sam Feldon, Chairman Messerschmidt presiding last night The committees recom- mendations on both the above or- dinance is expected to be presented to the Council at the June 3 meet

Mayor Harry I. Lucas today issued the following proclamation, naming next Saturday as Poppy Day in Juneau:
 whereas, in the World War of 1917-1918 the young men of Juneau gave their services to the defense of the United States in an exalted spirit of patriotism and some were called to sacrifice their lives in that service;
 Whereas, many others were called upon to sacrifice health and strength, with resulting suffering and hardships to themselves and families which continue to this day;
 Whereas, the memory of these patriotic sacrifices should ever be kept fresh in the minds of patriotic citizens, while fullest aid should be extended to those still within the reach of human aid;
 And, Whereas, the wearing Of the Memorial Poppy both honors the dead and aids the disabled and de- pendents;
 Therefore, I, H. I. Lucas, Mayor of the City of Juneau, do hereby proclaim Saturday, May 28, Poppy Day in the City of Juneau and urge all citizens to observe the day by wearing the American Legion and American Legion Auxiliary Mem orial Poppy.
