The Nomeites took the

beautiful rally the smooth
working Alaskans, Alec
Mogg and Fred Larson
dropped five long shots to
tie the score.
Nevertheless, the ‘‘click

be stopped, and the last
quarter come back of the
Alaskans was cut short by
the whistle ending the
game at 44 to 28 in favor
of the Nome Learn.
