 The local squad will be. made up of the best diamond stars from the Beavers, St. Louis Blues. and the Missouri Mules.
 The game will start at 3 o'clock. Service men in uniform will be admitted free, others must plank down 55 cents, and the proceeds will go to a fund for visiting ser vice men.
 The Juneau and Sitka Rotary Clubs also are mixed up in the battle since each club sponsors the respective local team
 Aid Service Men The Juneau Rotary Club recently launched a campaign to provide recreation for service men. Juneau merchants have donated posters which now advertise the event from many Juneau shop windows and the Juneau Chamber of Com merce is sponsoring large adver- tisement in the Empire in support of the game. A large turnout is expected and is due for the pro- ceeds go to the service mems re- creation fund.
