Anchorage-A proposal that
the number of bars in the cit.\
1 be limited to two for every
f; 1,500 population was approved
rj j recently by the Anchorage
v j City Council.
I] The current population is
| estimated at 14,000 within the
1 Icorporated limits of the city,
j This would limit the bars in
| Anchorage to 22.
_j Kodiak’s Dopulation during
j:the last census (1950) was set
i at 1,635 persons residing with
I! in the corporate limits of the

School Site
Cleared
Work of clearing the site for
Kodiak’s new school on Signal
Hill will take about another
week, Jay Tolbert of Shupp,
Chase and Tolbert said this
week.
The company, working |
under sub contract from Sam
I Bergesen, Tacoma contractor,
' has been clearing the hilltop
property for the past three I
i weeks.
! By the end of last week,
all the trees had been cut and',
the small ones removed from!
the area, and stumps of large!
ones had been turned over by |
bull-dozers.
A passable road to the area
had been cleared from the
Sixth Street approach, which
in turn is being opened by a '
city crew.
Ten men are working on the j
job of clearing the site, Tol
bert said. A small office build
ing was constructed by the
firm and >s on the location.
FROM THE PRESS BOX I
by
Lefty Craft, JOC USN !
The National League, which !
used to shutter as All-Star !
game time neared, looked for- !
ward this week toward its j
19th meeting with the Ameri- j
can League with more Con- j
fidence than at any time in i
the last decade.
The key to the new con- !
fidence is the fact that the A.
L. will take the field without
its super stars—Joe DiMaggio,
Ted Williams, Bob Feller and
Hal Newhouser.
One of the super stars has
appeared in every All-Star
game since 1936 and, over the
long haul there is no question
that they have swung the
balance in favor of the A. L.
One look at the record is
enough to show how heavily
they have weighed as the
American Leaguers built their
present 12 6 advantage.
| But the “Big Four” will
not be on hand at Shribe
Park, Phildelphia on July 8.
Williams, of course, is in the
Marines and Dimaggio has
retired. Feller’s record is 6-6
but he has been unimpressive
and manager Casey Stengel j
undoubtedly will pass him by
wncxi iic ii'aivca uia piicillllg
selections. Newhouser’s record
is 1-2 and has no claim to be
picked.
It would be stressing the
obvious to point out that the
A. L. has not yet developed
four players with even a
chance to match the “Big
Four".
On the other hand, National
Leaguers argue that they have
the game’s greatest player in
Stan Musial and probably its
second best in Jackie Robin
son. With Feller and New- j
| houser gone, they figure they j
have a nine-inning crack at j
the A. L.’s Ditchers. And they j
figure they are quite willing
to match such pitchers as Sal j
