SITKA-COLUMBIA

The last game of the evening in the opinion of the crowd was not refereed as it should have been. There was almost constant booing on any decision in the last half of the game. Sitka was apparently given the worst of the decisions but took them very sportsmanlike with out a complaint registered at any time. Sitka won the gam, from Columbia by a six point lead, G7 to 61
 Powers was back in the lineup for the Columbia team gut was ro- as steady because of his recent c2se of the flu.
 About three-fourths of the way through the first quarter, SitEa pulled to the lead and held it, but Columbia was never more than five baskets away at any time. Land of Sitka had to leave the game at mid point of the first quarter because of a twisted knee.
 Johnson of Sitka was closely guarded by Brown during the game but occasionally he would drop in one of his enchanted push shots.
 The most sensational shot of the tournament play was when H. Did, rickson received the ball from an out-of- bounds play. He caught the ball handed and without pass ing, did hook shot without moving his body.
 The last quarter was by far the toughest part of the game and tournament play to date. Even though Columbia was the home team, the crowd constantly favored Sitka.
 High scorer for Colum1ia was Powers with 20 while H. Didrick- son of Sitka led his team with 28.
 Scores: First quarter, Columbia 12, Sitka 20; second quarter, Columbia 29, Sitka 37; third quarter, Column bia 46, Sitka 53; fourth quarter and final score, Columbia 6l, Sitka CT.

 DIRECTORS
 WORRYING
Must Put Up Good Brand of Baseball During Season
 to Draw Crowds

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 23.-lR-- i The directors of the Pacific Coast | League have a baseball worry on their hands this coming season oth- CT than trying to build up to event. ual big league stature.
 It is the possibility of diminish Ing returns at the box office.
 Clarence Brick" Laws, president Of tfse Oakland Club, is one of those who realizes that the enter tainment dollar, if not becoming scarcer at least will be more diff cult to coax from the public.
 "The hand writing is on the wall" he said. The answer to the problem is for us to provide better ball than eyer Stiff competition among all our eight teams and a race right down to the wire, like last year, may keep us in the at- tendance bracket we hope for"
 Oakland, defending champion, has tha nucleaus for practically as strong as last years pennant win aer Charley Dresse, the cid Cin- cinnati manager down from the Yankees, is the new Oaks pilot.
 The Oaks natural team rival is San Francisco and Seals head man, Frank Lefty" O'Doul, is the &C., cepted enemy of all Oakland fans.
 Los Angeles and Hollywood are natural rivals. So are Portland and Seattle. San Diego and Sacra- mento have no single rivals but take on all corners.
 One thing is certain. There will be less fraternization among the opposing players as well as man. agers than in the past, which was almost nil anyhow.

MIKE'S-HAINES

Mikes won a wide-margin game from Haines, 67 to 42, and led the scoring throughout the game. This was the slowest moving game Of the evening though it was the mos thrilling. J. Hayes and c.

 Haines was shooting from every angle and body position. Haines was the second team to be eliminated from tournament play. Haines' high point man was J. Hayes with 16, and Mikes L. Bonnet dropped in 26.
 Score by quarters: First quarter Haines ', Mikes IS; second quarter Haines 18, Mikes 35; third quarter Haines 33, Mikes 49; fourth quar- ter and fin al score, Haines 42 Mikes 67.

The appetite of Juneau and vis- iting Basketball fans should have been satisfied yesterday With three cage games in the afternoon and three last night in the Gold Medal Tournament. Attendance was good at both three-somes Some of the games were better than the others but the six played had their high spots and spectators gave approval.
 With virtually as big a crowd for the only afternoon session of the Gold Medal Tourney as there was Monday night, Tuesdays afternoon three game sessions saw Columbia Lumber defeat Haines 82 to fl.
 Powers, the steadying influence for the Luma aermen, was not playing but was on the bench Monday, be- ing saved for last nights game. Dur ing the first quarter, Haines was tight in their checking and guard ing. Columbia was tight in their man-to-man defense work under the basket forcing Haines to attempt long shots.
 Columbia worked the ball care fully under the basket from where most of their shots scored. T. Will liams of Haines was good on one hand set shots from right of his basket, Heinmiller, with only two fingers on his right hand and patched left eye was by far the scrappiest player of both teams.
 Columbia shot baskets almost at will.
 High point men for Haines were T. Williams with l5 points, followed by J. Hayes, with 13. High point men for Columbia were Scott with l8 and Schmitz with IT.
 Score: First quarter, Haines 2, Colum2ia 13; second quarter, Haines 19, Columbia 26; third quarter, Haines 25, Columbia AT; fourth quarter and final score, Haines 41, Columbia 82

Raymond Jutila climbed the
lofty tower yesterday morning
after guards stopped a desperate
escape attempt.
But officials of the institution
for the criminal insane apparently
were not very worried. They con-
fidently played a waiting game.
"We1l wait him out" DR.. R. E.

said.

the pleading of guards.
Jutila has been demanding that
officials furnish protection for
my family from some released
convicts." He did not identity
the convicts.
The slayer also wanted guards
to call Police Chief William john
son Of Warren, Ohio. Jutila was
sentenced from Warren December

Jutila refused to say why he
wanted to talk to Chief Johnson.

When they saw him getting
water to drink from the top Of the
tank, DR.. Bushong ordered the
water level lowered. But Jutila
found another way. ...
The slayer found a piece Of
rope left on the tower from last
winters repair work. He un-
wound the strands, made a long
string, and lowered a tobacco can
into the tank to get water.

1t would not hurt most of us to
develop a little character along
with the lovely curves! +
think the reason most women
procrastinate in the matter of re-
ducing is because they cannot pic
ture themselves as lovely looking.
They have delayed so long and
their figures are so far away from
beauty!
Yet. if they only knew how close
beauty is to reality, they would
act. Beauty lies only a few layers
Of fat under the skin; only a few
efforts away from good posture;
only daily routine away from a
lovely complexion. Why not dig
these out? II you are willing to
pay the price in self-discipline,
