TOMORROW, up in the land of the midnight sun, the world's series for that part of the country will be staged. Seward and Anchorage will clash in a three-game series. A crowd from Cor dova, 500 miles from the game, has promised to attend. It Is estimated that $25,000 has been wagered. And still they say that the war has killed athletics. Well, Hollocher continues to hit them. He has hit consecutively for two weeks. generally getting two or more hits per game. And the scouts said he couldn t hit. The pirates are stepping along like a 'pup teamed up tandem to a vacant tin can. You certainly could make a mammoth skelteton out of the bones pulled in the National League this season. Greece saved Rome, taxicabs saved Paris. Looks like some pitching might . save Pittsburg.

The National .. championship swim will take place August 11 and the powers that be are trying to get Cann to race. Australia has been unfortunate In the case of Its champions. It has lost three In recent years, every one of whom was the greatest exponent of his particular sport. Les Darcy, mentioned first because of his death, is the more recent, was taken off In the same swift way as Bernard Bede Kleran, world's greatest swimmer, and Henry Ernest Searle, the sculling cham pion. W. F. Corbett, of the Sydney Ref eree recalled the circumstance when Darcy's body was brought home for burial. In a similar manner Kleran and Searle answered the call of the grim reaper at a time when, both were beginning to enjoy the fruits of success. Searle and Kleran returned from abroad with the swimming and scull ing records stowed away to the credit of Australia, but in both cases illness carried them off. Searle died of fever after a vfsit to India and Kleran suc cumbed following an operation for appendicitis. Searle was 28 years of age, but Kleran only .20, one year younger than Darcy.

Leagues to Suffer More, as They Have Larger Percentage of Younger Men Drafted Tossers Go September 1. CHICAGO, July 27. There is likely to be no world's series this year as a result of the drain on major league baseball players by the draft, B. B, Johnson, president of the American League, said here tonight. Tabula tion of draft numbers held by players Shows that probably 25 men will be taken from the American League. The American League will not play the series if it is handicapped by that seri ous a loss. Mr. Johnson said. The league president also said that he bad learned that the military drill ing installed by the league early in the season would not cause the War Department to extend exemptions to ballplayers until the end of the sea son. His information, Mr. jonnson ae clared, was that the ballplayers would be drafted to the colors about Sep tember 1. A recent interview by the American League president in New York urging ballplayers not to claim exemptions gave rise to suggestions by baseball experts here that the draft would re sult in recalling to the major leagues many men now playing in the minor leagues who once were stars in the majors, but are now past the age of the draft. The American Association has such men as Altlzer. Brown. Leach. Lelivelt, McQuillan. Corriden. Pierce and Low dermilk. The Western League has O'Toole. Devore. Hartzell. McCormick and many others who were Nationally known not many years ago. The second division clubs and tne smaller leagues will suffer more from the draft, it was pointed out, than tne big leagues, owing to the larger per centage of older men in the first di vision clubs. The younger players now being tried out in the small clubs and the. second divisions will show larger percentage taken by the draft than others. "I sincerely hope that ballplayers in both major and minor leagues who have been drafted will go to the col ors without claiming exemption. Mr, Johnson said.

Come Out to Columbia Beach Today FRESHMEN HAY PLAY Eastern Institutions Likely to Overthrow Old Ruling. WAR TAKES BEST ATHLETES Paciflo Coast Colleges Almost Unit for Change Question to Be De cided by National Com mittee August 2. Dr. A. D. Browne, athletic director of Oregon Agricultural College, passed through Portland last night on his way to Washington, D. C. to attend the meeting of the executive commit tee on intercollegiate athletics August 2. The big question to be decided will be the freshman ruling. Recently the coaches of the Pacific Coast colleges, Oregon. Washington, California. Stanford. Washington State College and Oregon Agricultural Col lege voted by means of telegrams to uphold the present rule that abolishes all freshmen from taking part in Inter collegiate athletics. Dr. Browne will vote the same way at the meeting in the Kast. The South ern California conference also has up held the freshman ruling. Freshman Rule May Be Defeated. According to reports from colleges like Vale, Harvard, Xotre Dame and Princeton, the freshman rule will be defeated, for the big schools of the Kast have lost all their best athletes to Borne branch of the United States service and only the freshmen are left to compete. The University of Oregon has lost all the varsity football team, the Oregon "Aggies'" have their best material among the freshmen and their stand shows that they are trying to have athletics for all and not for a few. The stand of the Southern California conference Is expressed in a recent statement made by Professor R. W. Sorenson, of Throop College: Athletics Will Be Continued. "It is the Intention of the Southern California Intercollegiate conference, made up of Occidental College, Po mona College. Throop College, Uni versity of Redlands and Whlttier Col lege, to continue athletics during the present year along the same lines as in the past. Of course, all the mem bers will lose a number of their star athletes and In those institutions giv ing military work a considerable por tion of their time which has been de voted to athletics will naturally be used for military training. As a con sequence It is quite possible teams will not be as strong as they have been during the past three or four seasons. Benefits Will Be No Less. "It does not follow that the benefits derived from athletics by the student body will be any the less than in the past, but, on the contrary, they will probably be greater because all the students will, during their first two years in college, be required to take the military training at some, if not all, the colleges, and as a consequence there will be a more general tendency to take part in the games in which physical skill is an asset. The games will also be of probably greater in terest to the spectator than in the past, as the different teams will prob ably be more evenly matched, even though none of them will show such great proficiency in games of contest as would be shown with the old stars in the game."
