| DETROIT, May 13.-Mr. Light
ming, otherwise identified as Out
fielder George Case of the Mats,
struck twice today. Case blasted
back at Manager Fred Haney of the
Browns for belittling his speciality Of
stealing bases and in the same
scorching pronouncement accused
most fans Of misunderstanding his
motives.
II read where Haney says any
body who steals more than 80 bases
year isn't doing his club any
favor" fumed Case, "and he cites
one unfair incident Of mine attempt
ing to prove it. Well, he's wrong.
Nobody can tell me that stealing
bases and plenty Of them doesn't
help team.
HE tells of the time in st. Louis
last year when I was thrown out
trying to steal second while we were
trailing by three runs. Bucky Har-
ris yanked me out Of the game for
that, and I guess any manager
would under the same circumstances,
but wasn't figuring that way at
the time.
II thought If I stole second I'd
be in position to score and If I did
we'd have only two runs to get back.
I was wrong and realize it now. I
broke up q potential rally. I still
have q lot to learn about this game
and I learned one of the things I
should have known then, but was
not trying just to boost my record.
Lewis Aided by Cases Running.
MY running has helped Lewis
particularly, I think, and 1t isn't
harming the team. Buddy had his
best season last year and I feel I'm
partly responsible. Those pitchers
will come down the middle more and
won't risk much change OF pace with
q fast man on base. Hitting behind
me, Lewis has q better opportunity
to get pitching he can hit.

Springer 7erps' Crack Lefty,
Rated Major Prospect, but
Doesn't Interest Griffith

What's going to happen to Earl
Springer. Maryland's crack south
paw? What's it going to be, the
bright lights of the big leagues or
the obscurity, bus rides and ham,
burgers of the bushes?
Well, Clark Griffith apparently
isn't interested in him; two Double
A clubs, one reputedly Baltimore,
are bidding for him! Burt Shipley,
Maryland's coach, things he's ripe
for plucking for the big time and
Joe Judge, former Washington first
baseman and currently Georgetown's
coach, doubts If he can make the
grade.
l'He can step in there and start
winning for a Double-A team right
now" Shipley said today, "and I
think it would pay Griff to look him
over as bad as he needs pitchers.
Lefty's a lot better than some of
those criples he's trying to win with"
Hes got good curve ball." Judge
observed, "his control is pretty good.
but I doubt If he's fast enough.
You've got to have a hard one to
stick in the majors and he hasn't
got it. OF course he may get faster,
he's not old, but right now I wouldn't
give him second look If I were q
scout"
Wants 5000 to Sign.
What does Springer think about
It? Frankly, he wants 1000 skins
for signing, preferably with a big
league outfit. They can farm him
out for experience, but he wants to
start at the top. It's obvious that
only o major league club could pay
that kind of a bonus and thus far
there have been no bidders. If it
boils down to signing with a minor
league team or not at all Lefty will
do It and he sincerely believes he'll
move on to faster company. He's
no osbraggart, but has worlds of con-
fidence.
Detroit, incidentally, has invited
him for visit after school closes,
but has made no contractural
promises. The Yankees were sup
posed to have q brush-beater in the
stands last Saturday when he lost
to Georgetown, SIS. It was his first
defeat Of the season and he coughed
UP only six hits-only one scratch
binele in the last seven innings.
In his last four games Earl has
been nicked for only IL hits, walked
seven batters, famed "a and won

NEW YORK, May 13.-Belmont
and Bimelech seem to go together
naturally, and by the time turf
headquarters" winds up its 24-day
spring meeting which starts this
afternoon, It should be seen whether
Bimmie is the super horse he looked
to be after winning the Preakness
last Saturday or that nag" he was
after losing the Derby the week be-
fore.
There's no doubt that Col. E. r.
Bradley's 3-year-old is the most
'talked-of horse in training right
now, or that Belmont is the place to
determine his greatness.
Beaten in the Derby by the 35-1
outsider, Gallahadion, Bimelech came
back at Pimlico Saturday to score
. smashing victory IN the Golden
Jubilee Preakness before $4,000 fans.
Most Of them were convinced that
he Is by all odds the best Of the
3-year-old crop-possibly living up
to Bradley's claim that Bimmie is
the best horse he ever owned.
win Run Mile and . HALF.
Other fans want to see him in one
more real test-tbe rich Belmont
Stakes-before they decide finally.
Midland, beaten by two lengths at
mile and three-sixteenth In the
Preakness, and the stretch running
Gallahadion, which was third, were
full Of run at the finish. They
might have caught up in a longer
race, but Bimmie didn't appear es-
pecially tired either.
In the Belmont, which will be run
June 8 over the full Derby route
Of mile and half, Bimelech prob
ably will face about the same field
he conquered in the Preakness. Be-
fore then, he likely will start once
at Belmont, perhaps in the Withers
mile next Saturday, but the big Bel
mont purse and the prestige Of
winning q race that goes back to
1857 is what Bradley and all the
other owners are aiming at.
Leading up to that climactic race
is q program OF ~ stakes, beginning
with the 5000 Toboggan Handicap
and the $500 Fashion Stakes today.
In all, about $400, 900 in purses will
be given out at q meeting which is
expected to break all records for at
tendance and the amount Of money
passing through the new mutuel ma
chimes.
Record Handle Predicted.
With crowds as high as $4,000 ex-
pected, and 500 mutuel windows
ready to receive money, Belmont Of
ficials are looking forward to q
$4,000, 900 handle some afternoon,
breaking the record of 81, ,705, 900 set
at Santa Anita. In fact. one OF
them was heard betting q hat the

F|REMEN MAKE FAST RUN FOR
 UNDERWATER
Speed of Local Depart meni May Save City
 Much Taxation

Juneau may be saved about S500,- 900 a year in insurance costs after last nights 31-second fire run from the hall to the 1-6 box across from the Reliable Transfer.
 H. C. Stryker of the National Board of Fire Underwriters in San Francisco, pulled the alarm box last night and clocked the department s running time to the box, the fire men unknowingly making the test run.
 Truck driver Joe Hill stopped at the box 3l seconds after the alarm and Stryker was apparently favor ably impressed.
 Mayor Harry Lucas declared today the City of Juneau had requested 2 five per cent reduction for insurance rates, and that Stryker, following last nights time-trial, had recom- mended the reduction.
 Estimates of Juneau fire insurance place total town insurance at about S10000,000. A fire per cent reduc- ton would therefore amount to a sum of $500,O00.
 Coincident to this announcement today Fire Chief V. w. Mulvihill also warned that All automobiles must stop when the fire alarm is sounded. or face prosecution, and declared that four seconds-'possi- bly, dangerous loss of time in the case of some fire in the future, - were lost last night when the truck was forced to stop for a cab.
