SPORTS
P. C. LEAGUERS ON
WAY HOME; SEASON
HAS FLOPPY ENDING
(By the Associated Press)
With weary Pacific Coast League
personnel heading home at last, to
day is probably as good a time as
any to perform the post-mortem of
the 1950 season.
First, however, just for the record,
the results of Sunday's windup
double headers:
Oakland, the pennant winner,
split with last place Sacramento.
The Oaks took the opener, 4-2, lost
the finale, 2-1. San Diego beat
Hollywood "twice, 11-5 and 1-0, while
San Francisco took both game.c
from Portland, 3-2 and 4-3. Seattle
edged Los Angeles, 4-3, in the firsi
contest but dropped the nightcap
7-4.
Reports persist that Seattle Man
ager Paul Richards w’ill pilot the
Chicago White Sox next year, al
though Richards still insists he
hasn’t signed anything yet. The
story this time comes out of Yan
kee Stadium in New York. Joe Gor
don, Cleveland infielder, is men
tioned as Richards’ possible suc
cessor at Seattle.
Bill Kelly leaves Los Angeles tc
manage Springfield, the Chicagc
Cubs’ other Triple-A farm, in the
International League. Stan Hack
comes from Springfield to take over
the Angels.
Attendance is off all along the
line. Here are more grim figures:
San Diego was off 65.947 from Iasi
year, a drop of 15 percent; Sacra
mento was down by 170,541.
Cal McLish joined the ranks ol
the 20 game winners by beatinr
Seattle in yesterday’s finale at Los
Angeles.

NOTRE DAME IS
BEATEN BY PURDUE
By WILL GRIMSLEY
NEW YORK, Oct, 9—ivW—Modern
football’s longest unbeaten skein lay
in shambles today and possible dis
aster loomed immediately ahead for
the two records that come close to
matching it.
Shattered at 39 games was Notre
Dame’s four-year uninterrupted
sweep—cracked by a Purdue team
that fashioned a shocking 28-14
upset Saturday at South Bend.
That left Army and Oklahoma
o carry on success streaks already
oast the 20 mark, but both of them
.'ace a possible scissoring job next
Saturday.
Texas, idle last week, holds a
14-26 victory over the Purdue 'team
hat rocked Notre Dame’s fighting
Irish. Oklahoma, on the other hand,
sarely escapedrWith a 34-28 triumph
)ver Texas A. and M, achieved in
..he fading minutes.
The Wolverines from Ann Arbor,
■o-champions of the Big Ten, fell
before Michigan State in the open
ng game but bounded back last
Baturday to whip Dartmouth, 27-7.
Army, meanwhile, set down Penn
Btate emphatically on Bob Blaik’s
mssing, 41-7.
Michigan State, given No. 2 na
ional rating behind Notre Dame
ifter its manhandling of Michigan,
ell before Maryland 34-7.
The other “Top Ten” teams came
hrough without mishap. Southern
Methodist, No. 3 just aW>ve Army
ind Oklahoma, turned Kyle Rote
>oose on Missouri to win, 21-0. Ken
tucky, No. 6, racked up its fourth
itraight shutout over harmless Day
ton, 40-0.
Stanford, No. 8, crushed Oregon
State, 21-0, while California turned
back Penn, 14-7.
CONTEST FOR ROSE
BOWL UNDERWAY
(By the Associated Press)
The tight Pacific Coast conference
race for the Rose Bowl was a three
team battle today—with Stanford,
California and Washington fighting
it out.
The foregoing order of listing does
not necessarily suggest the order of
finish.
Stanford, the popular pre-season
choice to top the field this time,
scored its third successive win, but
first in conference competition, by
blanking Oregon State, 21-0, Satur
day.
California, Rose Bowl entry the
last two seasons, outpointed Penn
sylvania in the resumption of their
intersectional relations, 14-7. The
Bears already enjoy a conference
victory, having beaten Oregon 28-7.
Contender Number 3, Washington,
came from behind with less than
three minutes to play to edge out
University of California at Los An
geles, 21-20. Jim Rosenzweig’s ac
curate placement for the extra point
turned the trick. In contrast, UCLA’s
■Bob Watson missed his first con
version in 12 attempts.
"One Shot" O'Neill
Arives Here with
Big Bear Story
Here’s a good bear story which
“one shot” George O’Neill, Detroit
sportsman has brought to Juneau
after his summer of fishing and
movie taking at Yakutat.
Every word is coroborated by
Hardy Trefzger, Yakutat guide, in
Juneau with “one shot.”
“Mrs. Morgan, wife of an army
flier at the air base near here,
and her two children, 12 and 10, re
cently flew to Dry Bay with her
husband, and she and the young
sters stayed over for a week’s
vacation at Hardy Trefzger’s cab
in,” O’Neill relates. Readers of this
column will recall that Trefzger has
served as O’Neill’s guide on fishing
and movie trips in Alaska. Last
year he nearly lost his life when
severely mauled by a large brown
bear which attacked him while
he was shooting movies of the
huge animal.
“One day, Mrs. Morgan noticed
a large brown bear watching the
children at play so she fired at it
with her 30-’06, wounding it in the
foot,” One Shot continues.' “A few
days later, while out picking ber
ries about 200 yards from the cabin
with her trusty 30-’06 along, she
looked up and spotted the bear
between her and the cabin. She
started to run but noticed the bear
was gaining on her so she called
to one of the youngsters to bring
his father’s shotgun. The boy yell
ed back, 'ma, the bear is gaining
on you.’ She stopped, took aim
with her rifle and luckily dropped
the big bear. They examined the
carcass, they found the foot wound.
O’Neill adds that Guide Trefzger
hasn’t received any applications
for women who want to spend a
quiet vacation at his cabin on Dry
Bay!
Malaya has increased in popula
tion by nearly a third in the past
16 years,

DYER PLANS FOR
CIVIL DEFENSE
WITH CAP UNITS
Although military strategy would
not seem to indicate use of an atom
bomb on Juneau—a non-military,
non-industrial target — local Civil
Defense planning must provide for
1 every possible eventuality, Tom
Dyer told Civil Air Patrol members
I Wednesday night.
Dyer, Assistant Civil Defense Di
rector, discussed Gastineau Channel
protection against action from with
out (bomb and incendiary air raids.
I surface and sub-surface attacks), as
i well as infiltration and sabotage.
With Squadron Commander Allan
G. Marcum and senior and junior
I members, Dyer went over the Civil
Defense organization, and applic
1 able CAP equipment and skills.
Communications, spotting and
warning seemed most valuable.
Assignments will be made before
the first of a series of practice
alerts.
After the talk in the • National
Guard Armory, Cadet Corps mem
1 bers went with Corps Commander
; Neil Fritchman to the CAP Quonset
Hut to be issued uniforms.
Senior members worked out de
tails of Civil Defense participation
complete renovation of the L-5 air
craft and eight walkie-talkies, first
aid instruction and finances.

War Comes to
Juneau Via S. S. Co.
Difficulties
| It is a difficult time for 'the
general traffic manager of a steam
ship company to be meeting • his
customers, J. N. Peterson, who holds
that job with the Alaska Steamship
Company, indicated in Juneau
Wednesday.
Peterson .here with G. S. Duryea,
general freight and passenger agent
of the company, said the company
currently faces two serious prob
lems : the lack of enough longshore
crews to load Alaska ships and
the possible necessity of discontin
uing passenger service due to the
steward’s union's refusal to comply
with Coast Guard orders regarding
screening of crew members for se
curity reasons.
Our schedule calls for a south
east Alaska freighter every two
weeks and a southwest freighter
sailing every week. This schedule
• necessary for service to Alaskan.-:
—has been completely disrupted by
our inability to get longshoremen
'o keep ships on our scheduled
plan.
"The army has priority on long
shore crews for Korean and Asia
tic loadings. It is difficult for ms
to have to tell Alaskan customers
that the reason for delays is dus
to the Korean war. . .in spite of
headlines in newspapers, Kiorea
seems pretty far away to a mer
chant who has been waiting for
merchandise that doesn’t arrive.”
Peterson and Duryea have been
to Sitka and were passengers on
board the Alaska Wednesday night
enroute to other ports in the Ter
ritory. They will return to Juneau
at the end of October after visits
m Seward, Valdez, Cordova, Anch
orage, Fairbanks and Mt. McKinley
National Park where they will be
present for the Alaska Day celebra
tion October 17.
CDA MEETS TUESDAY
The CDA will hold a meeting
Tuesday night at 8 o’clock in

urged to attend as special business
will be under consideration.

MANY MILLIONS IN VALUE
Prices Higher for All Furs
Since Russian furs have been almost barred from our
country, the advance in prices this coming season will mean
many millions of dollars to the trapper, who is entitled to
the biggest share, and the entihe fur industry.
Muskrat showed the first advance of fully 50%, Mink
even gained over the high prices of last year and all other
short-haired furs are sure to follow! Even White Fox, Red
Fox, and Lynx, unsalable the past few years, are gaining in
value and our sales in the last month on American Fox and
Coyote run into tens of thousands of skins at Higher Prices.
We look for an even better demand with resultant
higher prices this coming season. Don’t sell your furs at
give-away prices. We’ll he pleased to keep you posted on
the latest market trends and our free market reports will be
air mailed. You will find shipping ugs enclosed if you want
to ship us your fur catch. \Ve remit by air mail, by check,
money order, or wire money to your bank the day your furs
arrive. No more waiting around weeks for your money.

"BETSY" ANNOUNCES
FIRE PREVENTION WEEK
"This Is Fire Prevention Week,"
Betsy announced from her new
quarters in the National Guard
Armory at the subport, where she
has been moved to make room for
the new Elk's ambulance which
now occupies her old place in the
Juneau fire hall.
Daintily Betsy shook her fen
ders and continued, "I know I’m
(jetting a little elderly—for a fire
truck, but there are a good many
fire-calls in the old girl yet. Times
have changed a good deal since I
first came to Juneau in 1917. The
City Hall was only three years old
then and I was the pride and joy
of the department. I'm of good
American-French stock, an Ameri
can LaFrance, born in Elmira, N.Y.,
you know, and cost $9,000 I was told.
Those were gay days when the
inoustachied firemen staged hose
cart races for exercise and old
moustachioed firemen staged hose
have gone out of fashion,” Betsy
sighed with memories in her head
lights.
"As I was saying," she went on,
“this is Fire Prevention Week and
I hope all you Juneau folk remem
ber it and check your fire hazards.
After all, it is easier to prevent a
fire than to put it out."
“But Betsy, let’s hear something
about the history of the Juneau
Fire Department?"
"No comment," grunted Betsy,
| “You’ll have to find that out from
: Minard Mill—that is, if you can
I find h’im!”
