YANKEES BITE
SENATORS DUST
SCORE, 23 TO 12
GAME FULL OF THRILLS; UR
BACH K. O.’s G. MANTHEY
VALADE’S SLOW BALL
Greek met Greek last night when
the Yankees bit the (lust from the
Senators heels, cast up at the S. A.
C. indoor baseball game to the tune
of 23 to 12. As usual a fair crowd of
fans was in attendance encouraging
the opposing teams. Two features
marked the evening, however, the
same being when Urbach, husky and
speedy left fielder for the Senators
made a daring dash from third for
the plate in the second frame, crash
ing into catcher Gus Manthey—crouch
ed over the platter—bowling Gus over
and practically knocking him out.
Team mates of Manthey caught him
as he was staggering aimlessly about j
carrying him over to a bench where j
he recovered within a few minutes
and resumed playing. Urbach’s knee
caught Gus over the temple, it is
thought. The second feature was Pit
cher Valade’s slow ball which had the
opposition swinging like a garden gate.
This also might be an appropriate
time to make special mention of the
sunshade worn by Captan Shellhorn,
peppy leader of the victors.
Prior to the game it was pointed
out -that each time Valade has brought
home the bacon, he has on that nite,
worn, his famous red sox. He had
’em on last night so the Yanks had
not a chance.

inning, the Senators went on a bat
ting spree slamming out a volley of
hits which netted them seven tal
lies. The second time up for the
Yankees saw them annex four runs.
Rucker, flashy rightfielder for the
Yanks, almost fooled Valade’s slow
ball in one instance when he pulled
a graceful “Avalulu Dip,” otherwise
known as the “woodchopper’s slash.”
The Senators swept the decks clean
in the last half of the second uncov
ering a total of five more points. The
Yanks came back in the third stan
za like an Oklahoma tornado whirl
ing across the pan with four runs.
Again in the fifth they cprraled and
hog-tied two more. Then up strode
the dignified Senators and shoved
two runs across when Badger was
watching a play at second.
The last of the sixth witnessed the
Senators stage another rally in the
hall stepping across home plate with
five runs. Continuing their vicious
slicing of Barnett’s peace offerings,
the Senators took two more in the
seventh.
Barnett and Snyder was the bat
tery for the Yankees and for the
Sen ators Valade and Gus Man they
did the honors. Joe Badger took
care of base decisions and I Dyer,
acted as plate umps.

ACTIVE SEASON FOR LIVENGOOD
An active summer season is in
prospect for the Livengood district,
according to C. W. Hudson who,
with J. B. Hudson, Livergood min
ing operators, are in town for a
few days. Prospecting is prevalent
on practically all of the creeks and
much ground is in process of block
ing out for summer work. With a
wet freeze-ujj last fall a longer per
iod*' of sluicing is anticipated next
spring. Hydraulic machinery, sluic
boxes and other mining equipment
are being moved onto the creeks
early this year
Wickstrom, Iversen and others
have unearthed some pay on the
head of Livengood creke, while abou't
a half dozen outfits are at work
throughout the length of the stream.
Encouraging pay has been uncov
ered on Franklin gulch. Sullivan,
on Franklin, is reported to have a
very good fid, and is preparing for
the installation of a plant.
Jim Hudson is taking out a dump
on Olive, while several encouraging
holes have been bedrocked on the
Tolovana benches, between Olive
and Lillian Creek, is preparing for ex
tensive hydraulic operations next
summer. There is very little activ
ity reported on Amy creek.

As witness:
Frank G. Johnson reported at the
| office on December 3 after a month’s

| lication devoted to tides and currents
I in southeastern Alaska,
j The tide station at Sitka, Alaska,
which has been in operation since
April, 1924, will be discontinued at
the end of the calendar year, the sta
tion having served the purpose for
which it was established.
Under date of December 14 a report
■ was received from the commanding
j officer of the steamer Discoverer on
: the efficiency of the portable automat
I ic tide gage recently devised by this
bureau. In one instance an unbrok
| en record for a period of 10 days was
! obtained from the tide gage at Sitkum
; Bay, Alaska, without any attention
| during that period.
During the month the director in
spected the following vessels on the
west coast of the United States: Pio
. neer, Guide, Discoverer, Surveyor, Ex
j plorer and the Natoma. He also in
| spected the field stations at San Fran
cisco and Seattle.
The Guide, T. J. Maher command
ing, and the Discoverer, C. L. Garner
commanding, have been engaged in
the completion of the field records.
Repairs to the first-named vessel were
started at the end of the month. Of
ficers and personnel were furnished

field station, under whose direction
the drag work was carried on in Bon
ita Channel.
The Pioneer, R. P. Luce command
ing, has been engaged during the
month in offshore surveys along the
southern coast of California.
The Surveyor, A. M. Sobieralski
commanding; the Natoma, H. B.
