1945 YANKEES LOOKING LIKE TITLE THREAT
Teller and Indians Among Five Clubs with Crown
 Chance in American
By Jack Hand Associated Press Sports Writer)

When the Yankees sold Hank Borowy to Chicago they supposedly kissed off their 1945 flag hopes. But here it is September 1 and the New Workers are only four games out of first place, steaming down the stretch like another squadron of the famous Bronx Bombers.
 Ernie Bonham and Al Gettel teamed up on the Senators last night in a twi-night double-header, Big Jumbo whipping them ia the first tilt, 3-2, and Gettel following up with a 3-1 job in the finale.
 Bobby Teller hardly expected a world series slice when he came cut of the Navy to finish up the season with Cleveland but any thing goes this year Rapid Robert gees again today against Hal New houser after Allie Reynolds beat the Bengals yesterday, with the help of Felix Mackiewicz three nun homer.
 St. Louis and Chicago were rained cut of a game in the second inning, necessitating a double deal tonight. Boston divided two with Philadelphia, the Red Sox bouncing back in the second be- hind Randy Heflin after Russ Christopher had topped six-hit job with a home run in the opener.
 Big news in the National League was the fourth successive decision the St. Louis Cards grabbed from their Chicago cousins" making 1t II out of II for the year with eight to go. Harry Brecheen, just about the toughest left-hander in the league now that his arm is right, gave only two hits, one 8 hcmer by Ed Sauer who replaced the benched Bill Nicholson.
 Pittsburgh scored six times 1T the first two heats and held on tc trim Cincinnati, 6-5, after Man. ager Frankie Frisch and Catcher Bill Salkeld had been thumbed of the field by Umpire Jocko Conlan
 The Phillies staged one of thei rare rallies to shade Boston, 6-5 despite two more hits by Leade Tommy Holmes.

KODIAK DIARY

Those who have solved past Christmas shopping needs by sending friends copies of "War Discovers Alaska, by Joseph DrlscolI, which contained much material on Kodiak, have an- other out for themselves when confronting this years Christmas list.
 A new book is now on sale locally, written by Major Hall, formerly stationed here and else where in Alaska, which tells of his experiences. Those civilians and servicemen's families who went through the evacuation of the base will especially enjoy the story of the evacuation, and there is other local material, as well as the chapters on other portions of Alaska. The Look is published by 8 new Seattle publishing comI any, which has certainly jumped the gun on being first with the flood of books we can look for from re- l turning servicemen. We recom- mend it highly.
 By the way, next Monday, Oct. 15, is the end of the period for mailing Christmas parcels to servicemen overseas. And look how few shopping days there are before Christmas Just count them!
