ROTARY INTENDS
TO GO OVER TOP,
BONDS, BASEBALL

The Juneau Rotary Club, at its
regular luncheon yesterday in the
Gold Room of the Baranof, began
its campaign to make Miss Mary
Mccormack Miss Liberty by pur-
chasing War Bonds 100 per cent.
Each member bought at least one
bond but many purchased large
blocks of bonds.
This is just the beginning" says
Brooks Hanford, who is in charge
of the Rotarys participation in the
Fifth War Loan Drive. 1--WE have
lots of plans for the selling of bonds
and every member of the Rotary
Club is on the committee and is
working hard
That Ball Game
Tom Morgan was appointed chair
man of the committee that is going
to see that the baseball team that
enters the field against the Cham
Der of Commerce on June % is the
strongest that money WAR Bonds
can buy Stan Grummett, big time
pitcher, is holding out for a 5000
bond and will pitch for the highest
bidder. Rotary is sure to pick up
this option unless the Chamber
raises the anti.
The Rotarians will sell Wee Will
lie Whitehead to the Chamber for
song but Frank Hermann, leader OF
the Chamberites, has offered to buy
a 500 bond if Rotary will keep him
on the Rotary team.
Ernest Gruening, who was never
able to get to first base at the
Rotary picnic last Sunday, not
withstanding four consecutive hits,
will be coached and trained in
tensively between now and June %
and if the field is level and his
boots are not too big, it may not be
necessary to put i'll base runner II
Gruening should connect with the
apple.
Mary Mccormack. mascot OF the
Rotary club, has some good pinch
hitters up her sleeve and can be
seen practicing every night back OF
the USO.

BALL TEAMS ARE
TO BE PICKED AT
CHAMBER meet

The tow teams that are to play
the World Series of Juneau on June
% will be picked at the regular
meeting of the Chamber of Com
merce tomorrow noon in the Gold
Room of the Baranof Hotel
There is no doubt that bidding
will be high for the services of such
eminent players as Jim Ryan, Err
ME Parsons, Burt Faulkner and
Charlie Nagel.
Senator Shattuck is working
hard in the interest of the Cham
Der of Commerce and with his po-
litical pull" in certain high places
he might become very dangerous
to the Rotarians. However, he
didn't make much of an impression
when he appeared before the Ro-
tarians last Tuesday. 1t was noted
that his mouth was opening and
shutting but nothing could be
heard. 1t is possible that the noise
made by Rotarians during the soup
course might have had something
to do with this.
The important function of UNI
piring is being given careful con-
sideration by the management of
the various teams and everyone
who wishes to offer their services
for this important assignment
should contact either President Gar
vim of the Chamber of Commerce
or President Foss of the Rotary.
Their qualifications, bond (War
Bond and paid-up accident in
surance policy are the prerequis-
ties of application,
Anyone chosen by either side to
play on the teams who refuses to
play will have to provide a quail
fled substitute and pay into the
Treasury the price of this substitute
in War Bonds.
At the luncheon tomorrow, James
c, Ryan will speak on the proposed
Territorial Library System.
