 With the falling off of the fur trade, and the discovery of gold, the Alaska Commercial Ce. ex banded in the gold country, made transportation available on the Yukon River, and inaug- urated steamship line from Seattle to points in Alaska as far west as Unalaska.
 In 1901, all interests on the Yukon and it's competitive con- cerns were amalgamated into the Northern Commercial company. In 1910, this Northern Conner cial company decided to dispose of some of its interests, iRclud. ing those in Kodiak, at which time they were bought by MT. Erskine.
 The present Northern Con- mercial company, although some of it's physical properties are the same as those Of the older con i, cern, is not owned by the same persons or by their descendants. In 1921, the original company of the same name decided to re trench and sell it's interests as the principal owners had died, and Volney Richmond bought them, continued the liquidation of the old company, and then set up the present NC company.
 MT Erskine, whose father and

Self Denial Week

The Salvation Army Self Denial
Week in Hagerstown this year is
from March 81 to March 28-Easter
Every officer, cadet, soldier, and
Home League member sets himself
target. The spirit is to deny your
self something you are accustomed
to, and donate the money it would
cost-not just say Il can spare two
dollars this week"
These missionary contributions are
the only funds sent overseas for Sal
walton work, with the exception, of
certain amounts specifically raised
for overseas and postwar relief in
war -ravaged countries. While in
some missionary lands the work is
almost self-supporting, there are
many areas where Salvation Army
missionaries labor under great diff
ficulties and with pitifully small
financial resources.
In practically every country serv-
ed, medical care goes hand in hand
with The Army's evangelical pro-
gram.
The Hagerstown Corps of The Sal
walton Army will feature during its
week of Self-denial, the picture,

BEHIND
HOME PLATE
Baseball
By DOUG STEWART


The Sportswriters' and Broadcast
ers Association Banquet, held here
last month, is highlighted on page
25 of this weeks Sporting News,
with picture of the guests at the
head table; a brief account of the
banquet, AMI the naming of the new
officers of the Association.
AT this writing l have received no
news from Mr.. Sterling regarding
any players having returned signed
contracts, but l hope to have word
from him in time to give you next
week a fairly accurate idea of who
might be expected for spring train
ing next month.
l have also heard nothing about
a house being secured for pep"
Rambert and his family so if any of
you know of house, either furnish
ed or unfurnished, that the Ram
berts could rent for the playing
season, would appreciate your get
ting in touch with me, because Pep's
got to have a place to live, and he's
got to have it right quick.
1 just don't understand all this
excitement over the refusal of the
Washington County Amateur Base
ball League to enlarge the league by
admitting more teams. The vote was
very decisive one, with only three
out of the twelve teams in the
league voting in favor of expansion.
There might be some room for arg
ument had the vote been closer, but
with a one-sided vote like that it
would seem that the League knows
what they want, and they should
be allowed to run their league in
their own way.
1 disagree entirely with the view
taken by some that the action of the
Amateur League, in refusing to ex-
pand, will hurt them this year. All
the clubs in the league had good
following last year, and l believe
they will have just as good, if not
better attendance this year. One
thing do know, and that is that the
new president, Paul Macy, knows
baseball inside and out, and if the
league plays ball with him, you're
going to have about the best anna
teur league you've had in the county
in long time.
