 FRESH TALENT
Coming Maple Court Sea- son Offers to Be
 Faster League

From the looks of the basketball register here at The Empire, 1t ap- pears much as though there is going to be a good deal of new talent in Juneau basketball ranks this year andwe'll gamble lot of it is mighty good talent.
 Ball players hoping to play in the City League this year, are reminded they must sign the register here at The Empire to facilitate shaping of teams-whether you have played here in the past seasons or not.
 When the list is completed, man. agers will hold a barley to discuss hcw many players will be granted each team on the open market, while the balance of the squads will be distributed as to comparative abilities from the register roster.
 Among the new talent signing yesterday, Frank Hennesy looks like good prospect. He played con- siderable fast circuit independent ball in Oregon and was in lineup against some of the country's best pro squads. He is a forward.
 Norman Keith signs for guard or forward with three years high school play, two years of college work and four years of independent play.
 There are others that look as good and the chances are strong there will be a lot more.
 League officials remind that the register at The Empire must be signed.

Dempsey's Forecast

NEW YORK. Jan. 25.--Joe Louis
has been installed as a prohibitive
favorite at odds as high as to 10
when he puts the world heavyweight
crown on the block for the fifth
time tonight against John Henry
Lewis in Madison Square Garden in
a scheduled Is rounder
So Highly is Louis favored that
there is little betting.
Odds formerly ! TO 6 or ] to
skyrocketed overnight to such a
point that there is apparently little
Lewis money in sight.
A Lewis victory, however, would
probably go down in history as the
most astonishing upset in ring his
tory.
Jack Dempsey forecasts that Louis
will win by a knockout in the sixth
or seventh round but "if Louis does
not stop John Henry by that time
he may lose"
Louis weighed in this afternoon
at 2OOA pounds and Lewis at 1907
pounds, about five pounds less thar
he expected.
Physicians said Louis was calm
but Lewis was nervous.

Senate Memorial Appeals
for Aid in AIdskd's
War on Preddtors

Appealing for help in Alaska's war
on wolves and coyotes, Senator
James Patterson of the Third Di-
vision yesterday introduced in the
Senate joint memorial addressed
to officials at Washington and the
Capitals of British Columbia and
the Yukon Territory.
The measure asks the National
Park Service to institute some form
of predatory animal control in
Mount Mckinley National Park,
Katmai National Monument and
Glacier Bay National Monument, in
all of which preserves no measures
are being taken at present to eradi-
cate wolves and coyotes.
Patterson says it is obvious the
Territory cannot effectively control
predators, even by spending large
sums on bounties, If these areas
are kept closed to hunters and the
animas are allowed to multiply there
and spread throughout Alaska.
Officials of British Columbia and
the Yukon also are asked in the
memorial to cooperate with the
Territory in controlling predators.

with interference moving down

The Bulldogs showed offensive
thrusts at times, but its passing at
