WEST LEADS
OF ATHLETES
NEW YORK, Oct. 19.—The wild
and woolly west has pried the crown
of athletic supremacy from the classic
brow of the east and slapped it upon
its own tanned forehead.
In the whole athletic realm there
isn’t an event in which westerners
haven’t put their intrusive fingers
with an air of championship, with the
exception of those games which the
westerners cannot reach. Here is a
table of championships which may
prove interesting:
Heavyweight pugilistic champion—
Jess Willard, of Kansas.
Featherweight champion — Johnny
Kilbane, of Ohio.
Bantamweight champion — Young
Ertle, of Minnesota. (Claimed)
Light heavyweight champion—Jack
Dillon, of Indiana.
All around athletic champion—Fred
Kelly, of California.
Swimming champion—Ludy Langer,
of California.
American league batting champion
—Tris Speaker, of Texas.
National league batting champion—
Hal Chase, of California.
Amateur and open golf champion—
Charles Evans, of Illinois.
National league’s premier pitcher—
Alexander, of Nebraska.
Wrestling champion—Joe Stecher,
of Nebraska.
Tennis doubles champions—John
son and Griffin, of California.
The west didn’t get its fingers into
the world’s series pie, but some of
the most prominent members of each
competing teams are out west when
they’re at home.
Jerome Travers and Francis Oui
met, the east’s two best golfers, have
not been seen in tournaments this
year, and, consequently, were not of
any help in saving honors for the east.
The recent A. A. U. field and track
meet at Newark brought some crack
athletes to the east from the west.
Among them were Robert Simpson, of
Missouri and Fred S. Murray, of Cal
ifornia, two hurdlers whose equals
never have been seen. It also show
ed Landers, the wonderful school boy
athlete from Illinois, who came within
an inch of tieing the A. A. U. record
for the pole vault. It also gave the
spectators a glimpse of Andy Ward,
the Chicago sprinter, and Arlie Mucks,
the prodigious Wisconsin weight
thrower. These are just a few of 'he
many athletes in the west whose rec
ords show they are able to give a
good account of themselves in any
contests. The athletes who went to
the Scandinavian countries a short
time ago as representatives of Amer
ica in games across the seas, were all
westerners with the exception of Ted
Meredith.
WATER SUPPLY ON
OPERATIVE BASIS
Beginning November 1st, the An
chorage water supply will be placed
upon a purely operative basis for the
winter 1916-17.
The regulation requiring payment
of accounts at the office of the town
site manager before the 10th of the
month following will be strictly en
forced. The practice of collecting un
paid accounts by a collector from the
above office will be discontinued, and
any accounts not paid by the 10th of
the month following will be discontin
ued, the water being turned off.
A charge of 50c will be made for
turning water on after it has been
turned off at any time; no charge
will be made for turning water off.
Water users desiring credit during
the month because of absence, non-use
or other reason, must notify the above
office before such credit is desired, so
that the water may be turned off; no
credits will be allowed in the future
where water has not been turned off.
It is impossible to keep accounts in
a satisfactory manner unless the
above regulations are adhered to. A
strict compliance with these regula
tions will greatly facilitate the work
of the water department.
