|FFERT WILL
 BE HEAD OF
 B.B. LEAGUE
Baseball Players Asked to Sign Empire Register
 10 Join League

The Gastineau Channel Baseball League will be guided on its some times tempestuous way this sea- son by Harve Iffert, last years pop ular base umpire who announced that, with basketball ended, bowl ing schedules being completed and snow leaving the ski slopes. Ju- neau'S baseball season should get under way Sunday, May 5.
 Assistant to Iffert will be Frank Heinke, Vice-President last year until he stepped into the Presi- dency resigned by Judge William A. Holzheimer.
 V. w. Mulvihill will continue as Secretary of the Gastineau Chan nel baseball leagues.
 Iffert, in accepting the thankless position voted him by the Juneau Fire Department, a position so fre quently disturbed by not always worthless battles, brings to his po- sition several years of active base ball play and umpiring.
 Last year, calling them on the bags, Iffert displayed sound judg- ment and a stiff backbone. He made more friends than he did enemies on the job-and that's just about as high a compliment as you can pay anyone who walks in- to an umpire's job where that ma | ligned individual is always blind"
 Iffert is also to continue in his capacity as base umpire, and will have another Vice-President from the Douglas camp, which will give a three-way barley front to all matters of decision in the league
 A meeting of managers is to be called in the next few days to map out practice schedules and prepare for the season.
 It had been hoped that at least four teams would be in the field this season, giving players more free time and not require their playing nearly every weekend, but so far, only three teams as last year, Douglas, Elks, and Moose have signified intentions to enter the league, although another would be more than welcome.
 All players who desire to play il the league this year, whether they played last year or not, are asked to sign a players register at The Empire offices within the nexi week
 President Iffert suggested that through this sign-up system, il will be more simple to make uI the league and give an idea as t how many teams can possibly bt entered.
 The register at The Empire vii be available, beginning next week during the business day until o'clock in the evening, and from about nine until twelve at night.

Spofford Spinners Meet
Wertheimer Bagmakers
At Robert Strange

The city softball championship
series will start Monday at the
Robert Strange Fairgrounds with
the first game between the Spfo-
ford Spinners, champs Of the Com
mercial loop, swinging into action
gainst the Wertheimer Bag COM
pany, leaders Of the Independent
league.
The game will start promptly at
8 o'clock.
If past record means anything
the Spofford lads have the slight
edge. They won the first half OF
the Commercial league without
trouble and then relentless cut
down one opponent after the other
for the crown for the second halt.
Only the Boys Brigade gave
them anything like competition.
The Brigadiers, in the home
stretch during the second half, put
a magnificent winning streak to
force the Spinners to a post-season
game, but Forest Cooks heavy hit
tiers emerged the winner and now
face Mondays game with conf
dence.
The series will put two of SOFT
balls finest pitchers against each
other. The Spinner's Hugh Ballard,
a husky fast ball moundsman,
might be in the lineup, it has
been reported, and Wertheimer's
Cliff Phillips, fresh from his no
hitter against Taylor-Colquitt will
feature the mound work for the
Bagmen.
Walter Bum, manager of the
championship Firemen's team OF
the Hanover league, has challeng-
ed the winners of the Spofford-
Wertheimer game.
1--WE want a series with the win
ners," he said, because we were
champs in our loop and feel we can
give any team in town a good
game" Bum also said that neither
team could claim the city cham
pionship or Foy, Roe and Co. tro-
ply until all challengers had been
beatened.
Each game in the three on: OF
five series, beginning tomorrow,
will last seven innings. There will
be no more double-headers. 4
