ARE TOO MANY
The contro,-ersy between the trus
tees of the Anchorage Athletic as
sociation and the members of the
three baseball teams is booming ri
diculous and if not settled soon will
spoil the sport and the people will
lose interest in the national game as
played in Anchorage. It is not be
g coming for the association to assume
a high and mighty air of superiority
nor is it in keeping with their dig
nity to be dictated to. The whole
affair is a bubble and at the meet
ing last night between the captains
of the three teams and the trustees
of the association the misunder*
standings were partly rectified and
it will be definitely settled tonight
when the ball players’ committee re
ports back to the players. The at
titude taken by the trustees is vir
tually the fulfillment of a promise
# given and while their decision may
seem harsh, especially in regard to
passes, it is for the best interests of
all concerned and will terminate sat.
ifactorily and still keep the unsul
lied name of America’s national
game of baseball intact. The com
mittee composed of Captains Fleish
mann, Rochon and Nicholls were
fair in the presentation of their side
and stated that they were willing
and anxious at all times to work in
harmony with the association, but
did insist that they should be en
lightened on certain matters per
taining to finance and method of dis
written copy of the resolutions
adopted by the trustees at a recent
meeting and the same will he pre
sented to the players en masse to
night and no doubt the whole af
fair will be settled amicably, the
bubble pierced and the game as
scheduled between the commission
and the Shamrocks played tomorrow
afternoon at Recreation park. It
was the intention of The Daily
Times to publish at this time a list
of all contributors to the association
together with a detailed statement of
the indebtedness incurred and the
disbursements of the funds, but the
statement was not available and will
be published later in these columns.

ASST. FIRE CHIEF
BEEN SELECTED ■
- 11
At the meeting of the fire de
partment Thursday night, Joseph j
Horrocks was appointed assistant
fire chief and J. G. Watts captain of .
the chemical cart. A committee
composed of Messrs. Nourse, Camp
bell, Tracy, Koch and Seidenverg j
were appointed to make arrange- ■
ments for the dance to be given un- .
der the auspices of the tire depart
ment the night of the Fourth.
The captains did not select the
members of the different fire fight
ing squads, as advertised, but the
divisions were laid off and are
bounded as follows: First division,
under the command of Captain
Shonbeck, takes in everything from
the eastern boundary of the city to
D street; the second division under
Captain Campbell, is bounded by L)
street on the east to G street.on the
west, and Captain Ray T. Larson
controls the situation from G street
to the sea. The practice as sched
uled for last night did not material
ize and there was no opportunity to
get a line on the fire companies, but
considerable rivalry has already
sprung up which only goes to make
the fire fighting apparatus more of
a success.
