1947 Basketball Team Nome High School
For the first time in many years Nome High School had a basketball team which merited being
sent away for competition with other schools. The team went to Anchoarge d,uring the Fur Rendez

inter-school contests. They did not win any games, but returned home with experience well worth
the trip. This was the first trip away from Nome for some of the boys.
Members of the team were: (standing, left to right) George Bourdon, (junior); Walter McCarthy
(senior); James Edwards (senior); Elliott Mozee (senior); (sitting, left^to right) Harold Bell (sopho
