Open 3-Game
Series for Lead

NEW YORK. July 3 CUP).-The
case OF the New York Yankees VS..
the law that whatever goes up
must also come down was placed
in the hands of home town jury
at Boston today. Foreman Joseph
Edward Cronin and his IL men.
good and true, won't arrive at a
verdict until late tomorrow, but
the folks back here in the Bronx
have prepared themselves for the
worst.
Normally. the Yankee rooters
are the cocklcSt in the world
They fear nobody. Although they
aren't loud or boastful like Dodger
fans, they are as SNUG as a Mis-
slSSippi Democrat on election day.
That is, they were SNUG. For
things have changed in the Bronx.
In two weeks the fans confidence
has ebbed as fast as their team.
They are stunned and helpless.
QUICK FIGURES
The story is best explained by
a few quick figures. On June Is
New York was nine and a half
games atop the league and nine
games ahead of their record shat
tering pace of 194l. Baseball's
No l betting statiStician, Jack
Doyle, quoted them at II, out and
out. If a man liked Boston or
Cleveland Doyle was willing TO
permit him TO name any price he
liked.
Today the same Yanks are only
three games in front They have
lost IL of their last II games dur
ing one OF the most embarrassing
western trips in their modern his
tory They are still two games
ahead of their 1941 record but
they are no longer even roughly
accurate facsimilcS of II shots
Their price today hover around
2-1 and is still fattening up.
The Yanks seem TO have come
apart simultaneously on all sides.
The pitching has Soured faster
than milk in a hot sun. The hit
ting is something even Billy Conn
would be ashamed Of Even the
copper riveted infield defense has
shown signs of cracking. Joe. Di-
Maggie is mired in a slump. Joe
Gordon is wearing mental boxing
gloves. Big Bill Dickey is ailing.
In the midst of this depressing
collapse-it's collapse only be-
cause the Yanks have been known
as a super team--the Honorable
Cronin and his bold buckos 10 the
north have pulled a sneak play.
The Red SoX have suddenly began
climbing faster than an express
elevator in the Empire State
Building. They are closer TO the
lead than they have been in years
on July 3.

ECorse Crews,
Defending Title,

Sun, wind. water, the great out
doors, association with youth
these collectively must form an
antidote against the years.
AT least Jim Rice. now in his fiji
tieth season as a rowing coach,
seems TO flourish by such contacts.
Jim won't tell his age. but seems
not one day older than he was a
half century back. He still plays
handball.
Rices' crews from the Ecorse
Boat Club go to the starting line

a fair prospect TO repeat. 1t will

Alaska Raw Fur Exempt Retailers Excise Tax Law

Having taken the stand that fur garments made of reindeer and hair seal could not possibly be considered luxuries in a eli mate such as our. and should not come within the scope of the new revenue tax law, the N. ". AL aska Chamber of Commerce ask cd Delegte Dimond to contact the proper authorities in Wash ington and negotiate 10 the eff feet that fur garments made out of reindeer or hair seal, which would include our popular muk- luks, should not be taxed. The results were most gratifying in asmuch as the Commissioner of Internal Revenue directly from Washington issued ruling stat ing that people from the north are entitled to this exception and replied as follows:
 "The Bureau holds that par kaS, ants, leggings mukluks and gloves, worn by people of the North as protection from the cold, made wholly of deer, rein deer, moose caribou or hair seal skins, cured with the hair on but not dyed or processed to initiate the fur of other animals are not articles made of fur on the hide or pelt within the meaning of section 240l of Chapter 19 of the Code, and retail sales thereof are not taxable If, however. such an articles is decorated or lined with materials commonly or commercially known as fur and such fur is the component material of chief value in the articles the sale thereof at retail is subject to the 10 percent tax on furs imposed by section 2041 of the Code.
 Articles made of Walrus ivory are not subject to the retailers excise tax imposed by section 2400 of Chapter l9 of the Internal Revenue Code, as added by sec.
 ton 552 of the Revenue Act of

CULPEPER, Va, July 4.-Four
thousand horse fans celebrated In
dependence Day at the Culpeper
Horse Show today and saw Mr.. and
Mrs. w. Haggin Perry's Magic Luck
carry the torch for the Beau Val
Stables of Gotham, Va, to win con-
formation hunter championship
with 1872 points over Troop, owned
by U. S. Randle of Washington, with
II points.
Cornish Hills, winner of five
championships, was to be the Perry
reliance, but because of an injury
the great son of John P. Grier was
scratched.
Troop seems to be destined to be
beaten for the tricolor by Perry
entry. This was the fourth time
this season that the veteran son of
Golden Broom Marching On has
been reserve to a Beau Val Stables
hunter.
Magic Luck, chestnut son of
Savon- -Hauteaur, beside the pre-
liminary took but one blue, but built
up his points in minor awards in the
young hunter class.
Troop won both the middle and
heavyweight hunters and the Corin-
THAN with another point picked up
in the championship hunter pre-
liminary.
My Freckles Triumphs.
My Freckles, big jumping little
gray mare. won the open jumping
championship with 10 points gar
nered by a win of the open jumper,
a second in the touch-and-out and
third in the hunter and jumper.
Her owner, Mrs. Alex Calvert,
rode the 8-year-old daughter of
Kirkover to her triumphs.
Reserve championship went to
Donald Hostetter's Mahme. who
with her owner collected eight points
by placing first in the touch-and-
out, third in the open jumper and
| fourth in the hunter and jumper.
Scanty Annie, another of Mrs.
Calvert's open horses, won the hunt
er and jumper class, with the owner
doing her usual good job of plotting.
1t took spirited jumpof before the
ancient bay mare disposed OF David
Martins Cateer to take the blue.
Mrs. E. Douglas Primes Pappy, the
national green hunter champion of
l941. lived up to his reputation by
winning the suitable to become
hunters and the 4-year-old and over
| jumps.
POnie Takes Flat Race.
A 5-furlong race open only to resi-
dents of Culpeper and adjoining
counties was won by three lengths

A smooth but unfortunate Jacob
sen nine that has sizzled threaten
ingly since the season opened, but
never caught fire, will try to halt
Naimans wild dash to the undis-
puted championship of section A,
National City League. when they
tangle today on the South Ellipse.
The game headlines a l0-game
card, including four junior league
duels.
With a lineup that boasts the
Lagos brothers, Jimmy Durkin, Jack
Kendall and "Tubby" Robertson,
Jacobsen figured to have better
season than it has enjoyed, but just
hasn't hit its stride 1t dropped a
81 verdict to Miller Furniture last
week and has lost several other
games BY small margins.
The Millers hoped to continue
their winning ways at the expense
of Ninth and New York Avenue
