prime factors in its rise 10 us

High schools have as many as
200 candidates turning out Tor
the five man varsity and hund-
reds of recreational leagues play
nightly in almost every commun-

Many of the name coaches
such as Nat Holman, OF New

of Kansas; Howard Cam of N. Y.
IT,; Clair Bee of small Long Is

of Ohio State and Piggy Lam

their school into the sports head
lines.
Although the East was origin

the sport has spread over the en-

when they mix in the huge New

BEHIND THE HEADLINES:
The Tigers like many OF the
other big league teams have
placed many of their players on

they are all waiting for the new

the reduction of income taxes

saleable q few weeks hence
when the income tax collectors

Jimmie however says that the
club owners will find themselves

OAKS DRIVING FOR pLAY0FFS

CBy The Associated Press,

Oaklands Acorns famed their flickering hopes today for a Pacific Coast league playoff spot = but only the biggest of upsets will put them in the select circle
 The Oaks won their fifth straight last night in beating the Hollywood Stars, 7-6, to keep alive their mathe- nautical chance of overtaking the fourth-place San Francisco Seals, who dropped 3-1 decision to the Los Angeles team. Four games sep arate the two bay area teams, and with only five to go an Oakland loss and San Francisco win would clinch matters for the Seals.
 Sacramento's Solons virtually tied the knot on third position by beat ing the champion Portland Beav- CTS 7-5 to even their series at one all.
 San Diego and Seattle were rained out and will play twin bill to- night.

BOTH FAIRBANKS,
 ANCHORAGE HAVE
 HOME BLDG. URGE

Returning from his first Interior field trip since his appointment as Underwater for the FILA in Alaska, John Carter arrived back at his office here by plane frem Fairbanks yesterday.
 He reported that residents of An chorage and Fairbanks are definitely interested in housing, but that ma terials in those cities are not avail able in any quantity yet. Most plans are being laid for next spring, wken Anchorage expects to see the erection of approximately 100 resi- dences and Fairbanks about 30.
 Banks, material dealers and con- tractors in both cities are anxious to get started on housing construc- tion, he reported, but there is suf- ficient commercial work, mainly re- pairs to present buildings, lined up to keep them busy through the winter months.
 At present, Fairbanks has seven houses under construction and 18 were built during this summer. About 10 houses have recently been con- pletcd at Anchorage, II single houses and three apartment build- ings totalling B dwelling units are in construction now.

JUDGES DRAW UP
 UNIFORM RULES
 FOR ALL COURTS
Bill to Improve Commis. sioners' Adminisira-
 lion Is Perfected

District Judge George F. Alexan- der has returned here from Anchor age where he attended a meeting of the four Alaska Division judges, and declared that he believed the meet ing was very successful.
 The judges were kept busy all last week formulating unified rules of court procedure for the whole Terri tory. Alaska is all one district Judge Alexander pointed out. and should have the same rules through cut; yet heretofore each separate di- visicn has operated differently in some respects.
 Concerned with the importance tc smaller communities of having com pe,ent U. s. Commissioners and recognizing the inadequacies of the present manner of compensating Commissioners, the Judges devoted considerable tine at their meeting to rerfecting bill for presentation to Congress, which would provide a minimum salary of $200 per month for Commissioners.
 Commissioners would also te en- titled to retain revenues from fees up to a total annual compensation maximum of $3,0C0, which is the present maximum. In addition, the bill drawn would provide a travel ing supervisory commissioner to help in the administration of the var ious local Commissioners offices.
 The judges conference just com pleted is the first held since 1937.
 Reporting his impressions of AYa~ chorage, Judge Alexander declared that city is fast getting back to normal. In common with other Alaska cities, Anchorage is becom- ing seriously concerned with the rroblsm posed by many seekers flooding into the city.

THEY CAN'T ALL BE IN

Owner of the Chicago Cubs, Phil Wrigley, is certain that his club will hold on to it's lead in the National League and he has the series tickets already printed. But he absolutely refuses to accept any money for them until the flag is clinched. The Cub front office is returning hundreds of checks daily. .. :. In St. Louis, where the Cardinals are driving hard to overtake the Cubs and win their fourth straight bunting, Presi- dent Sam Breadon not only has the tickets printed but he has his staff at work on a souvenir program. . :. But he, too, is sending back hun dreds of checks each day. . The Detroit Tigers have been a trifle more optimistic about things. :. They have been receiving world series applications, limiting four ducats to person for each of the three games to be played in the American League.

By JACK HAND ZAP Sports Writer

Prospects of a fourth Detroit Chicago world series hit a snag today with the Tigers faltering be- fore Bobby Feller's one-hit shutout pitching.
 The Cubs held up their end of the bargain as Fordham Hank Borowy broke the St. Louis Cardi- nals hex" with Al decision in 10 innings at Sportsman's Park. It was the ninth victory for the former Yankee whom Larry Mac Phail sold to Chicago for re- ported S70,000 because he couldn't win after July Fourth"
 Just when It appeared certain that Billy Southworth's champs were going to cram another shutout down the throats of the Cubs, needing only one more out in the ninth for To verdict, Andy Pafko ruined George Dockins' day with a tying single The leaders then went on to score three times in the tenth on only one base hit for their fifth success in 19 meetings with the Birds.
 It's now three games from Chi cago on top to St. Louis in second place with only nine to go an overwhelming advantage as the two clubs go into the final game of their all-night series at Sports mans Park.
 Things were not so happy in the camp of the Detroit club which saw it's advantage over idle Wash ington shrink to a single game after the 20 shutout by Feller's Tribe. Jimmy Outlaws Texas league single in the fifth inning saved the Tigers from the humiliation of having no-hitter thrown against them in the thick of the race.
 One long clout by Jeff Heath, his fifteenth homer of the year, with one man on, was the differ ence between Feller's perfect job and combination three-hitter offered up by Les Mueller, George Caster and Tommy Bridges.
 While Washington tangles with the Yankees today in the opener of a two-game series preparatory to a final three-game set in Wash ington, Detroit must meet Cleve- land again and then face the St. Louis Browns over the weekend.

DECIDE FOR YOURSELF

GA quick look at the prospective world series second-basemen).
 Don Johnson, Cubs-Don gives credit to his dad, Ernie Johnson, former White Sox and Tanks in fielder, to Pirate Scout Sloppy Thurston, and to Joe Gordon of the Tanks for making him a major leaguer. The war might also get an assist. Johnson made it last season after 10 years in the minors, but he's done OK so far.
 Emil Verban, Cardinals-Another 1914 rookie who made good. He was the National Leagues best fielding second sacker in 1914 and has upped his batting average from .275.
 Eddie Mayo, Tigers-Supposed to be the one who holds the Detroit infield together but if he's hurt any more he may have trouble holding himself together A near 300 hitter, too.
 George Myatt-Lists his hobbies as hunting and woodwork" :. There's no sign of the latter in his .280 batting average.

Dix Says

Dear Miss Dix: AS have no chill
dren of my own, have willed all OF
my propertN to my stepdaughters
whom I adore. My sisters are furi-
GUS about it and refuse to speak to
me because they think they should
inherit my property. I love my step
children as much as any mother
could love child Of her own and
without them life would not be
worth while for me.
Don't you think I have right to
leave my property to those who
have made me happy during my
lifetime?
A DEVOTED STEPMOTHER.
Answer-Your money is your own.
Your sisters had no part in making
it and so you are not defrauding
them of anything to which they
have a legal right when you leave 1t
to those whose claim upon you is
one of affection. But I advise you
to get a good lawyer to make your
will and urge him to make it bomb

A friend of mine has new and
splendid version of the delicious

strated it for us the other evening
at a small, but definitely choice
little dinner.
He started his menu off with
shrimp cocktail that was particu-
larly noteworthy since the shrimp
had been purchased raw or green"
and boiled at home, with plenty of
spices and dash of vinegar in the
water. The shrimp were allowed
to cool in this water, with an extra
dose of ground peppercorn sprinkled
over them, and then shelled and
put on ice to chill. Just before they
were to be served they were tossed
in a thin French dressing, redolent
of lemon juice, and served, sur

for sickroom and nursery and even
for the musty odor SO often found
in dark closets.
Have you ever been in room full
of cigarette smokers and seen the
haze of smoke doing a heavy,

That's the time for the hostess to
open a bottle of this product and
notice how quickly the excess smoke
disappears. Likewise the odor Of
stale cigarettes and unemptied bey-
erage glasses. That in itself is
worth the price!
Perhaps all the magic powers Of
this product are due to the activated
chlorophyll which it is said to con-
tain. We are told that is the miracle
substance that freshens the air
wherever green things grow.
