STIRRING FLAG DAY SERVICES
 ARE HELD HERE
Governors Address Hits European Aggressors,
 Urges Preparedness

Citizens of Juneau rededicated themselves to the principles of de- mocracy at stirring Flag Day ser vices performed last evening in the Elks Hall here.
 In the address of the day, Gov. Ernest Gruening described the flag as living and growing symbol of a great idea and great ideal" He spoke of the challenges from abroad to the kind of life and liberty represented by the Ameri- can flag, and said that the year 1940 probably would go down in history alongside the dates of pre- vious great crises of mankind.
 Speaking of the war in Europe, the Governor said:
 Tt is a death struggle between two ideals-ours and theirs" Cthe dictatorships) and declared that there is no room in the world for two systems so utterly anti thetic"
 If the time has come to offer up sacrifices similar to those made by former Americans in winning and perpetuating our liberties, the Governor said the American peo- pie will not finch.
 A duty and obligation which rests upon us at all times is to make our democracy in America work, he said, declaring that pa triotism should not be mobilized only in time of outside danger"
 The Governors address, which was broadcast, followed the Elks flag ritual, in which Acting Exalt- ed Ruler Norman Banfield descrio- ed the history of the flag Exalt- ed Ruler Howard Simmons opened the session and Esquire Ray Ward took part in the ritual. The audi ence sang America" and ''1'he Star Spangled Banner"

NEW OHLEANS, June l0.-t1e so wild he can hardly hit the back stop, but there's a pitcher who some day VII pitch and win a World Series game.
 The speaker, at the 1924 St. Louis spring training camp, was Branch Hickey. He was talking about a rookie pitcher wnose wildness had the hitters jittery about stepping up to the plate, had them grumb- ling about such a hurler getting a big league trial.
 Six years later the same pitcher ics in a World Series contest. His hut out the Philadelphia Athlet- name was Wild Bill Hallhan.
 Wid Matthews, canny ivory hunt CT for the Cardinals, tells that story as an illustration of his point that baseball scouting is a com- plicated occupation.
