Doctor's orders were not taken
cheerfully again Yesterday when
Big Jim Dixon's leg was put in a
plaster, cast and he was told to
stay out of the lineup for at least
'three weeks. The star tackle will
be missed -Friday against Gdn
riaga, Coach Schlssler has Olm-
.stead and Hale to replace him.
' Scouting reports on the game
; Gonzaga played Saturday have
not changed the Aggies opinion.
Consaga will be mighty tough."
A reteran backfield player, Poggy
I lunton, showed up so well Satur
day over what had been consid
ered a regular backfield that It is
i considered likely by Assistant
Coach Clyde Hubbard, scout, that
S he will be put on the first team
Saturday along with Flaherty,' In
S gram and Brons the quadruple
quartet ibeing as firm as erer.: for
- these; men are not only all triple
v threatcrs,. they can each one

on that Job. - -

game in which an opposing pitcher
had oner of his remarkably good
day."
'Harris was all smiles at the end.
"How'd you like that game?
Wasn't Barney (Johnson) great?
Didn't we play good baseball?"
The questions ran off the youniz
manager' - tongue in a teady
stream and there could be no doubt
that he was just as delighted as
he said he was..
"V.'inning of the first game of a
series would tickle anybody," he
said, "perhaps looking back upon
the reverse, at the hands of the
Gianta in Washington a year ago.
"Barney pitched wonderfully and
he mixed them up. You should
see his hand swoolen to almost
twice its size from the' way he
gripped the bail. Barney was out
!to win and there was no stopping

WASHIXGTOX. D. Ic. Mam:
proposals are being put forward
for disposing of the Coast Guard
cutter Bear, when Ihe Retires irom
nearly half a century of duty in
the Arctic wastes of Alaska, but
none have been approved. The
coast guard has under considera
tion the construction ofa modern
vessel to relieve the Bear, but is
loath to part; with the veteran
craft that forms an integral part
of its history, j . j
An Alaskan Chamber of com
merce has sought tc Tave the
Bear utilized as a floating museum
for America's northwestern terri
tory. The Explorers' jclub has put
n a bid for the shii)'i bell. There
are officers in the icoast guard
who say the vessel will ultimately
be a training yesxel for the service
probably at San Diego. Cal.
Doing duty since the early '808,
the Bear has: beten known tor the
Esquimos as '.'oom'ak pukt
(powerful big ship.) Recently
Mrs. Aneva Mattsem, a native-born
Eskimo, educated at Carlisle In
dian school in Pennsylvania,
wrote of the Kear to coast guard
neadquarters:
"The Bear has j written her
beautiful heroic deeds and devoted
faithful service in ojir hearts. aJid
lives as the years and time have
gone by. She has brought hope
and light from civilization to our
hearts strong and I secure. The
Bear will be the Eskimos' most
reverent raembry in the years -to
come.' I I
