Weather Today
(U. S. Weather Bureau)
A severe and extensive cold
wave area covers all of western
Canada and is lowering tempera
tures in the adjacent Northern
states. Cloudy and unsettled
weather with snow squalls and
fog are reported over most of the
Nome-Fairbanks Airway. Fair
Weather prevails along the Gulf
and in SE Alaska.
Mild temperatures continue ov
er interior and western Alaska
but are lower ouer southeastern
Alaska.
Pressure remains high over the
North Pacific Ocean and low over
the Bering Sea. This condition
will likely cause continued un
settled weather with snow and
fog for Nome and vicinity for the
next 24 hours with not much
change in temperature.
The lowest Nome temperature
last night was 18 and the highest
yesterday 27.

A strong Hammon team met
a strong Alaskan team last night
to provide the thrills and ex
citement of the evening.. Plenty
of action attended the first two
innings, and then hard, fast and
tight fielding kept the score
down, after the Hammon had ob
tained a seven run batting spree
in the second inning. The Alask
ans got one of their own in the1
sixth to the tune of five runs.
The cheering and rooting, even
boos at times, filled the big hall
with so much noise that nothing
else could be heard, and at tim
es the players became highly ex
cited as the game progressed.
The game was won in the six- ;
th inning when the Hammon
team knocked in two runs and
held the Alaskans to only one
in their half of the seventh inn- j
ing, ending 14 to 13 in favor of
the Hammon. It was anybody’s
game throughout, and right up
until the last man was put out.
Following is the short score of
the game:
Alaskans 1 3 1 0 3 5 1
Hammon 2 7 0 0 3 2 —!
In the second game of the ev- j
ening the Huskies and Commer- j
cials appeared on the floor in
regular indoor baseball suits, and
the crowds in the galleries and
bleachers gave them a big hand.
Plenty of action was witnessed
in this game also. The early in
nings proved that good pitching
on both sides, can hold the score
down. In the fourth the Com
mercials got in a five run rally,
and the Huskies came right back
with a five run rally in their
half of the fifth, but the Com
mercials slipped away again in
their half of the fifth. Plenty
of hitting and base running was
featured on both sides, and the
game ended 15 to 9 in favor of
the Commercials. Following is
a short score of the game,
Commercials 0 0 3 5 4 2 1
Huskies 0 2 0 1 5 0 1
Interest apparently has quick
ened in the games for the crowd
was even larger than a week ago.
The Boy Scouts had a good idea
when they appeared, selling hot
dog sandwiches, among the spect
ators, and were reported to have
exhausted nearly their entire sup
ply
The teams playing the third
games of the series next Wednes
day night will be Huskies vs
Alaskans and Commercials vs
Hammon.
Noticeable at all of the games
so far has been the commendab
le manner in which the large
crowds have cooperated with the
management of the school in re
fraining from smoking in the big
hall, and have, in other ways done
much to make the use of the big I
gym more enjoyable and easier |
to operate. They are to be giv
en a big vote of appreciation in
cooperating in this matter, as it
makes the work of handling the
host of details in connection with
a public gathering and the con-1
duct of the school, much more
satisfactory.
Don’t forget the big games
next w'eek. They should be hot
ones. The League Standings are
as follows.
Team Won Lost % !
Hammon 2 0 1000
