BASEBALL LOOP. pRExY DECIDES
 FOR ELkS NINE
of C a m e with Moose Is Upheld and
 Ordered RepIdyed

Judge William Holzheimer. Pres ident of the GaStineau Channel Baseball League, ruled today that the protest of the Elks baseball team arising out of decision in a game lost to the Moose 10 to 2 on June 26, is valid, and conse- quently said the game would be replayed in the near future.
 In the game in question, which was a postponed contest between the two teams, the score was tied at one-all until the third inning when the disputed play arose in which Koshak, Elks fielder, was ruled "out" by the umpires.
 Koshak had struck and missed the third pitch with one out and a man on second and one on third. Catcher Blake dropped the ball and Koshak started for first, but umpire Novel; had called Strike two,p and in the resultant argu- ment, Koshak made first safely while base umpire Iffert came into the home plate argument wit h hand raised for time and Koshak also came in calling time out, dur ing which he was tagged" by Moose first sacker Snow.
 At the time, it was decided Ko- shak was out, but Judge Holzheim- CT ruled today in favor of the Elks protest, that Koshak had never been put out and that he is for all intents and purposes still on first base"
 There never were three men put out in that inning" the Judge said, and no matter what the score might have been after that, the fact remains that legally the bases should have been filled with but one out"
 After the disastrous argument the Moose had gone ahead to win easily, ten to one, but the score is now scratched from the books.
 The status of the first half of the league play is this: Elks have a half game lead in the first half, with replay ordered of the protest ed game with the Moose, and the Moose in turn having a tie play

Forest Service Architects Return from Fish,

Lake Hasselborg, lying cool and inviting in the fastnesses of Ad- miralty Island, offers excellent fla cilities this summer to campers and fishermen, Ernest E. Walker, Chief Landscape Artist for the U. s. Forest Service, and Linn Forrest, Assistant Architect in the Region al Office here, reported today on their return from the sparkling wonderland.
 There is a Forest Service shel- ter cabin at both ends of both Of the connected lakes, as well as free Forest Service boats at the same points Two other shelter cabins and another boat are also stationed at points around the lake.
 The cabin at which they, with District Ranger w. A. Chipperfield and Administrative Assistant Ro- bert Duckworth stayed, had sleep ing accommodations for eight, an indoor stove, cooking utensils and running water. All that a person needs for stay at the lake is bedding and food.
 Yes, Trout Are Biting
 And fish-they caught so many trout they tired of the sport in a few hours. The cutthroat ranged from 20 to 23 inches in length.
 The four men flew to Hasselborg with Pilot Shell Simmons of Ma rine Airways on Monday, walked out by trail to Mitchell Bay where they were met by the Forest Serv- ice launch Ranger TX and cruised from there to Sitka. Walker and Forrest flew to Juneau with Sim mons last night from Sitka, while Chipperfield and Duckworth stayed with the Ranger TX for an ad- ministrative trip through the Ad- miralty Division.
 Tomorrow the two architects are leaving for the Westward on the Mount Mckinley, with the Kenai Peninsula as their particular des- tination. Walker will conclude his study of Alaska recreational possi- bilities at Fairbanks.

Plan Is Drafted
For States

Continuation of the w. P. A. arts
program under local sponsorship at
approximately the same levels of
employment and operations, pre-
viously maintained under exclusive
Federal sponsorship was announced
yesterday by Florence S. Kerr, as
sistant commissioner in charge of
the Professional and Service Divi-
sion.
To maintain approximately $4,000
persons on the various projects, 1t
was estimated, the monthly cost of
the Nation wide program would be
$3,357 ,186.
Every State and the District of
Columbia has come under the local
ly sponsored program. Their con-
tributions will average slightly over
13 per cent, whereas previously the
Federal Government betrayed the
entire cost.
All State programs except those
for the District of Columbia, Mary
land, Mississippi and Montana have
received final approval. In these
three States and the District, it was
said, parts of such a program have
been approved and other applica-
tions are pending.
The District has applied for all
four classifications of projects. The
local program as submitted would
employ $50 persons at an estimated
monthly cost of S38,825. 1t was
broken down as follows: Art, $l0,-
555, employing 80; music, $6,065, em-
