CLYDE MILAN WAS A BETTER base
runner than Ty Cobb" Bucky Harris said
flatly.
The opinion came in answer to a uues-
tion put to the one-time boy wonder and
was not volunteered, but there was no
doubt about Bucky's sincerity. He was pre-
dated to some extent by both Cobb and
Milan, but Harris did play with Milan, the
all-time Washington centerfielder, and
against Cobb.
Ty's records were so numerous as to
make 1t easy-eXcept for home runs-to
single out any phase in which his competi-
tors were not overwhelming. But one which
always intrigued many fans, including this
one, was his base stealing accomplishments
Nobody came close-never wi1l-to Cobbs
1872 stolen bases.
And yet-was Ty the greatest at this
art? mo" Harris was saying today at his
Connecticut avenue apartment. HE stole
more bases than Milan 1922, but there were
a number of factors which had everything
going for Ty. For one thing, he played in
more than 5000 games, remember reading.
Milan played in fewer than 1000"
CLYDE MILAN, AN EASY-GOING Ten
nessean who at times family looked like a
friendly turtle, twice beat Cobb for the base
stealing championship. In 1912 he stole S8
as against Cobb's 81. The next season he
stole IA, topping Ty's So.
Cobb outhit Milan by don't know how
many points," Bucky pointed out Actually
the figure was Ty's record 1857, lifetime,
against .285. And" Harris added, "he in
variably was playing with better ball clubs
Under normal conditions you don't
steal when your club is behind. Clyde's
team was behind more often than Cobb'S,
so figure it out for yourself, But the basic
difference was that Milan was faster than
Cobb . he could outrun him.
"Clyde got better Jump from first
base," stressed Harris, second baseman
who should know all there is about COM
batting baseball thieves.
MILAN was mild guy who always tried
to evade the tag Bucky went on. cobb
would evade one time and crash the next
You never knew with Ty-he was mean
so and so when he played"
HARRIS, NOW WORKING for the Chi
cago White Sox with headquarters in the
town he put on the baseball map in 1924-25,
paused for a moment of reflection.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are

split 3 to 3 on a motion to con-
slider a franchise proposed from

Final result of voting was to

Housing Loans
Available Now

The Alaska congressional dele
cation has been advised by the
Department of Agriculture that
the Farmers Home Administra-
ton housing loan program is to
be effective in Alaska immediate
~. It will not be applied in other
states until October Is.
Congress recently supplemented
an expanded program by enact
ment of legislation, Public Law
s7-70, the housing act of 1861.
Provisions included are to the
effect that rural housing loans
may be made to farm owners,
and as we'll, to owners of nom
farm tracts in rural areas and
small rural communities that
have populations of $500 or less.
Funds may be used to finance
adequate but modest rural dwell
ings- and essential farm service
buildings. Loans are made only
to applicants unable to finance
these improvements with their
own resources or with credit
from other sources.
Information concerning regu-
ations and procedures is now
available at the office of the
Alaska state supervisor of the
Farmers Home Administration,

power to demand a franchise if

the Council indicated that if Row
ley could bring Kenai Power up
TO standard and could operate an
adequate power system for the
growing and already much ex-
panded city, that his franchise
proposal would be considered.
Council members also conferred
with representatives of Peninsula
Power last week and listened to
their proposals as presented by
John R. Connally, attorney for
the group. It was decided that
an open meeting should be held
and both offers be brought before
the public for hearing.
Peninsula Power has offered to
come into kenai, TO build a trans
mission line and to buy power
(from an unnamed source); to
supply the city with power lat
an unnamed rate1; and later to
sell transmission lines. generators
and other equipment to the city
after construction The city then
would own and operate its own
power system.
According to the proposal, if
purchased within 5-year period,
the city would pay cost of con-
struction plus Is per cent. If
purchased after 20 years, cost to
the city would be construction
cost less SO per cent. Life time
of generators such as would be
