BOTHE POOL
TOURNAMENT
At the Bottle Pool tournament at
the Seward Club nearly all the re
maining games were disposed of yes
terday. In Class A Fonda and Cas- j
sel are tied for first place at present j
but there will be a third to join them
in the tie. N. K. Anderson and Crit
Tolman have one game to play be
tween themselves. W hichever one
wins will be even with Fonda ami
Cassol and all three will have to play
off the tie. Whether this will be one
game with all three playing at one
time, or individual games between
each two has not yet been announced.
In Class B Haynes has won seven
games out of eight and Erwin W right
has won five straight. There may be
a tie to play off between these two.
The high score to date is «>i> by t ari
sen. Play is expected to be finished
tonight, ami possibly the play-off.
Joe Hoffman bought a boat today
for use in traveling to and from his
ranch and for carrying the produce.
BILLIARDS
The best ami most interesting bil
liards of the tournament were played
Saturday and Sunday. High scores
were the feature. In that line Shu
man led off Saturday winning over
Margules with the high average of
1.47-this being the high average for
Class B. at that time. With this
record stowed away in cold storage
Steve takes a vacation Sunday morn
ing a little trip down the bay only to ,
find on his return that during his ab
sence Derry Lane, by fair means and
some fowls, had in the boldest and
most brazen manner pulled Steve’s
high average out of cold storage, re
placing it with one of his own of 2.44.
No Class A player has been seen look
ing at Class B score sheet since.
Shuman’s one pleasant day in Seward
has gone into history while a pleasant
smile has become a permanent feat
ure of Lane’s daily existence.
In class A Whittemore won over
Finnegan with a high average of 2.03.
Finnegan won over White by an aver
age of 2.34, Bruner won over Whitte
more with an average of 2.17 and over

made the high run, a fine collection of
20 under discouraging circumstances
towards the close of the game. Had
he started sooner in the game he
would in all probability have w'on in
stead of losing by 0 points.
Bruner has won all his games in
Class A and becomes the winner of
that class. Mathison is the winner of
Class B. Class C has not yet been
definitely decided but will be decided
between Evans and Stine in all prob-1
ability at their next game. If Stine
loses Evans becomes the winner. If j
Evans losses to both Stine and Daub <
there will be three ties to play off in
Class C before the winner can be de
termined.
Altogether the wind up is becoming
exciting and is drawing an enthusi
astic audience.

ANNOUNCEMENT.
In announcing my candidacy for
councilman at the coming election, I
want the voters and taxpayers to
know just how I stand on matters per
taining to the welfare of Seward.
I believe the standard of our public
schools should be equal to any in Al
aska.
I believe in public improvements on
a sane and business like plan. I do
not believe in squandering monies. I
believe in conducting the business of
the city on the same conservative
plan in which business men conduct
thejr private affairs. Am opposed to
any Civic Improvement plan, involv
i ing the expenditure of half million
dollars. Those conditions might exist
forty years hence, but we are not
i ready yet nor is any city in Alaska.
1 believe in bringing the assessed j
valuation of Seward down to where
it justly belongs. I believe in a tax
levy sufficient to conduct the affairs of
the town for the ensuing year—our
assessed valuation is too high.
I believe in maintaining an up-to
date Fire Department and paying the
j volunteers sufficiently to awaken a
new and greater interest in the de
partment. Their efforts have not been
fully appreciated.
Water For Fire Protection.
If the Council is aware of insuffici
ent water for fire protection it is up
to them to arrange for it, and if
necessary, install an auxiliary salt
water pumping station, an emergency
station. I believe that all Federal
property enjoying the protection of
the police and fire departments
should bear their share of the burden
and up keep of these departments,
and with the proper co-operation with
the Federal Commission this may be
obtained.
I believe in employing the oldtimers
on all city work so far as is consist
ent, and paying not less than 50 cents
per hour therefor.
If the above platform appeals to
you, I ask your vote.
Respectfully,
W. M. SAUERS.
