BIGGE5T SALMON To. BE EXHIBITED HERE ON
 JULY 4Th BY LIONS

The "big one that got away" is usually the fish that's most talked about whenever and wherever sports fishermen gather, but occasionally that "big one" doesn't get away, and Juneauites are to have the oppor- tunity during the Fourth of July celebration to see with their own eyes the biggest salmon ever caught"
 Through the courtesy of the Lions Club, this monster salmon which weighed 126 pounds, will be brought from Petersburg where it was caught eight years ago, and will be put on display in the Smith Heating and Appliance Company store on Seward Street. A small admission fee will be charged, with all proceeds to be given to the Alaska Crippled Chil- dren's Association, it has been an- nounced.
 Touched for by Dr. J. o. Rude, the huge salmon has an interesting story. Assisted by his son Donald, Dr. Rude skinned it( he doesn't claim to have caught iD, then the Petersburg Chamber of Commerce took the responsibility of having it stuffed and mounted Jealously guarded by loyal Petersburg resi- doptc thp rJ-ifla Of tho cifv yuoc oy hibited for time at the wellknown Ben Paris sporting goods shop in Seattle, and once made trip to Minneapolis Otherwise. the sal mon has been kept pretty close to home in Petersburg, and only as a special favor and for a worthy cause was it permitted to make this trip to Juneau.

12 CREWS ARE READY
 FOR RACE
Climax Of Rowing Season to Take Place al Se-
 afiIe Tomorrow

E
 SEATTLE, June Cornell was sharp, Harvard was as ready as a newly-tuned piano and the 10 other crews here for Saturdays Lake Washington Regatta, the unofficial American sprint championship, were set to get in their final practice licks today for the climax of the rowing season.
 The long, broad lake spent yes terday flirting with a sturdy breeze and the 12 coaches kept their 96 carsmen away from it's tall waves.
 But there was plenty of rowing water in the Ship Canal in front of the University of Washington shell house and nearby Lake Union was much less excited over the visit of the wind.
 Late in the morning the shells got away for a short workout and they were out for longer tests in the afternoon.

Rookie Big
 Support 10
 Dodeer Club
By JACK HAND Press Sports Writer


 Jackie Robinson, the Brooklyn first baseman, has come through under extreme pressure to become an important factor in the Dodgers rise to the National League lead
 Batting .3o2 after last nights 8-t thrilling win over Boston, Robinson rates with the best rockies of the season.
 Through the West, it was Robin sons batting that started the Brook lyn club on victory string that now measures eight out of nine.
 After Boston, fighting desperately to hold first place, rallied for five runs to tie the Dodgers, 6-6, at Ebbets Field last night, Robinson's s eighth inning double started the victorious two-run splurge.
 Billy Southworth threw Is Braves into the fray with the loss finally being charged to the veteran Si Johnson while Ralph Branca &C., cepted his 10th win for l 1/3 innings of work.
 The Dodger win gave them a half game lead over the Braves and a full game over the New York Giants who, like the Phillies, were idle.
 Chicago Loses
 Chicago lost ground in the race by Pittsburgh Ernie Bonham's so shutout victory. It was the second straight whitewash job for the stout ex- Yankee since Manager Billy Herman made him starter, and his fifth win to one loss.
 Cincinnatis Ewell Blackwell who is swatting the league on it's ear with his sidearm slantS, dumped St. Louis Harry Brecheen, 6-3, for his 12th victory.
 Connie Mack's Philadelphia Ath- letics continued to trod on the toes of the mighty in the American League. halting the New York Yankees win streak at six with a AZ decision. Rookie Joe Coleman, whose only previous win was shut out of the Tanks on Decoration Day, obliged with a seven-hit effort de- spite Jce DiMaggio's ninth homer.
 Despite the Tanks defeat, they held their 2l4 game lead because Washington thumped the Boston Red Sox, 7-3, hopping on reliefer Earl Johnson in a four-run seventh inning.
 Al Gettel hurled his second conf plete game in a Cleveland uniform, a four hitter against Chicago, 5-1, the result enabled the Tribe to change places with the White Sox in the standings, shifting from sixth to fourth
 St. Louis and Detroit were not scheduled.

CLEVELAND, June 27.-tR-Welt- erweight champion Ray Robinson whose eight orund technical knock out of Jimmy Doyle here Tuesday night resulted in Doyle's death, said today he wanted to appear in a benefit bout for the Los Angeles boxers parents.
