As generally anticipated. Alaska has again gone completely Demo- cratic With results still incomplete from Tuesdays election, returns from most of the major precincts in- dieate a sweep for the Democratic candidates in all the Divisions. AS this is written, the liquor referen- dunn issue is still in doubt but in- dieations being that it will be de- feated. This issue, aside from sever al spirited divisional contests, is probably responsible for bringing out what promises to be the biggest vote Alaska ever cast when all the returns are in. Precincts throughout . the Territory report record voting
 One of the prize examples of the big vote can be found in the two Wrangell precincts--Wrangell and Stikine. A total of 432 votes were cast in these two precincts-358 n Wrangell proper, 64 in Stikine and 10 absentee It was by far the larg- l est vote ever cast here. In 1936, the l last presidential voting year, the to-
 tai vote here was only $40 and in 1888 it dropped to BOA Similar trends are reported from various other precincts.
 The major reason for the big vote here was, of course, the candidacy l of Frank s. Barnes, one of Wran- gels No. 1 citizens for years. Local voters turned out and voted for Barnes almost solidly. Of the 358 votes in the main precinct, he re- i ceived 314 and of the GA in Stik- l inc he got 53 In Petersburg, where he is equally well known, he got
 209 of the 256 votes cast in the Sen ate race.
 Regardless of the outcome of the race between himself and Doe" l Walker of Ketchikan, Frank Barnes
 has reason to feel mighty happy. l Any man who can hurdle party lines and get that sort of a vote from the l folks among whom he lives and does
 business day after day and year af- l ter year has little reason to feel down-hearted about the outcome of political contest. That kind of stuff doesn't come in political pack ages. It only comes from being a
 real human being. To our way of
 thinking, Frank Barnes won as
 much, if not more, than probably
 any candidate seeking office in AL
 aska-blanket endorsement from
 the people who know him best of
 the high regard in which he is held among them.
 The referendum, which appears to
 be defeated, seems to indicate that Alaskans are not as much concerned
 over liquor as many believe. At any rate, not dissatisfied to the point of
 putting the Territory in the liquor business. Reelection of Senator l Walker and defeat of the referen- dunn will amount to vindication of Doe" and his famous cocktail bill for which he drew a lot of criti- cism
 1 Petersburg was an exception to the heavy vote reported from other places in the Territory. Wrangell's 5 neighbor town only mustered 267 persons to the polls in it's two pre- cincts. Only little more than half as many as Wrangell-latter's cen- sus population, HAP, Petersburg, 128S, but not voting.

We've always regarded horses as

we went so far as to climb in
saddle and attempt to negotiate a
Rock Creek Park bridal path. but
the experience didn't serve to foster
an understanding Of the animal.
The automobile. as far as we were
concerned. was here to stay.
There was a vague sort Of ad-
miration for those jockeys who pilot

vanished when another or several Of
his 4-footed chums hurried under
the wire like they were more en-
thusiastic about it all.
Now. though. there's sudden
switch in sentiment to the hose
There must have been others in the
crowd of nearly 10000 yesterday at
Potomac Park who blossomed for the
first time as horse lovers, for those
polo ponies swiped the show from
their internationally famed riders.

An estimated 5000 was obtained

figure would be doubled If a return

Cecil Smith and Mike Phipps

tet to a 9-S victory over Meadow
brook in two extra periods, but
despite the expert whacking of
the best players In the exclusive
sport, those ponies seemed the I'M
sung heroes. They were marvellous.
Scooting over treacherous turf,
twisting and turning on penny,
miraculously battling each other
along the sideboards in their relent-
less pursuit of the white wooden
ball, those ponies strapped like
champions, absorbing brutal physi-
cal beatings in stride.
There was mild amazement when
perspiring pony, thumped on the
side of the head with a hard-hit
ball, wheeled at command and
romped after his tormentor, that
elusive fugitive from a lumber yard.
All afternoon those ponies were. be-

Central sits Snugly on top Of the
scholastic grid heap this week, and
already there is talk of an unde-
feated season for the Vikings, who
are favored to take the public high
title with a team that was given
a preseason rating two weeks ago
of underdog to Western. The Red
Raiders, however. have been tied
by George Washington and nosed
out by Westinghouse to drop back
several notches, while the Vikings
proved their opening victory over
Gonzaga was no fuke by downing
st. Johns, 1912.
Central Is Inconsistent.
Central was not impressive in the
Gonzaga game. despite its wide mar
gin, but it made up for that by
display of all-around power against
the Johannes. Whereas Harry Mar
tin a week ago appeared the only
Central threat it now has come up
with Stan Valanos. DIN Hartman
and Sam Di Blast. all of whom
are displaying ability both in scoring
and defensive play.
An undefeated season for the
Vikings still is distant. what with
Western and Westinghouse re-
naming on the schedule as dis
tinct threats. Eastern also might
give trouble, although it had its
hands full in defeating Roosevelt
in the championship series opener
on Friday. Tech always is able to
put up a battle and promises much
better team than originally expected
following its 1910 victory in the
opener over Episcopal.
In fact Tech might be rated as
the class of the East division instead
of at the bottom as formerly.
Eastern's play appeared full of bugs
last week while Anacostia, after
starting with an impressive tie
against st. Johns, had its bubble
pricked when 1t lost to Handley High
at Winchester, Va.
Rating the elevens outside the
public high loop Is a difficult task.

After the fifth game at Detroit
yesterday the receipts totaled ST.

PLAYERS pool. In event the present
series goes seven full games and the
gate receipts at Cincinnati are up TO
the standard of the first two con-
tests. the all-time record gate OF

in 1896 bv the New York Yankees

Each series victory has been scored
with an umpire from the rival league

plate.
Bill KLEIN of the National circuit
called balls and strikes as Detroit
won the first and fifth contests and
Lee Ballanfant of the National cir
cult was the arbiter in Detroit's
third game triumph. Emmett Orms-

League umpired at the plate in
Cincinnati's second and fourth game
wins.
The only audible squawks on the
officiating occurred in the second
contest when Ormsby didn't call

it would be all over. If Walters

three to two. did nothing to disturb
the report that Newsom, after more

had become a good pitcher. Buster
