BASEBALL
SPOTLIGHT
By “Nosey”
I noticed last night in the Nug
get that I had received a letter.
That’s probably the first letter in
written form I ever received—the
others were either a sentence or
were from that fellow called
‘‘Please Remit”.
Seems like the Hammon Team
objects to me picking their pitch
ers. Somebody has to pick 'em—
the Huskies couldn’t.
I didn’t know they had more
than one pitcher or I might have
been tempted to kind of just sug
gest that they ought to have a
change in their game with the A1
askans. I'd like to offer a little
bet (you can imagine how small)
that if they use Chuck in the Al
askan game, the Hammon will
lose. I guess I do owe the Ham
mon team an apology for saying
last Thursday “we’d see Chuck
against the Alaskans this Wednes
day.” However, the intent was
not to pick their pitcher ahead of
the game for them—but was mere

' ly to inform the public that a
new pitcher, and a “soufhpaw” at
j that had been discovered.
I’d like to thank the Hammon
' team for their nice compliment,
that they liked this column. I’ll
do the same for them some day—
when they lose.
Somebody at the practices last
night told the Daily Nugget re
presentative that he was sure that
‘‘Nosey” had been at the hall last
night to watch the practices, and
uncover a little inside dope. Don't
make any mistake “my fran”. you
know I wouldn't stoop so low to
look for any stuff fit to print. I
j just kind of “Nose” around to get
• mine.
Just to take the other side of the
1 argument, I predict that the win
' ners tomorrow night will be the
I Alaskans and the Commercials.
I
If you think otherwise, you’re
entitled to your own opinion. The
Hammon showed up last week ex
ceptionally strong in their game
against the Huskies. This week
they meet an older and more
experienced team than the Husk
ies, and a team of pretty heavy
hitters. The old war cry of:
‘‘you can’t win ball games un
less you knock runs in” still holds
good here.
A prediction in the Huskie Com
mercial game is also forthcom
ing. It is reported, and from a
reliable source that the Huskies
have steadied down and are play
ing airtight ball. At the same
time the reports from the Com
mercial camp disclose that the
team is still playing ragged ball
and still need support in the pitch
ing end of the game. Still, you
know, upsets are easily exper-j
ienced in indoor ball and the
predictions may be all wrong, af
ter the games tomorrow night.

Supt. Pool Says
Possibility Of A
Class In Radio
Supt. Calvin Pool of the Nome
Public Schools announced today
that there are numerous requests
for a vocational radio class in
Nome. He declared he had been j
approached by no less than eight
persons anxious to organize such
a vocational claSs dealing with
technical instruction leading to
ward an amateur classification.
Mr. Pool has requested that
persons desiring to take part in
such a class should register with
either himself or Leroy M. Sulli
van.
“If a sufficient number of per
sons can be register a radio class
will be organized. If this be
the case, in all likelihood, the
Diesel engineering class will pro
bably be eliminiated from the
list of vocational subjects this
year. However this is up to those
who will be most actively inter
ested,” said Mr. Pool.
“The course itself would be op
en to both beginners and those
who have a smattering under
standing of the subject. Compet
ent instructors would be secured [
and the class conducted in a
capable manner. To those who j
are anxious to see such a course
organized in Nome, I would sug
gest that they assist in obtaining
a sufficiently large registration
with which to work. I under
stand that there has been con
siderable thought given in the
past to the organizing of radio
classes. Here is a splendid op
portunity, and again, I would like
to say that if such a course be
organized it is up to those who
at present are actively interested
to swell the registration. Register
with either myself or Leroy Sul
livan, and do it now,” declared
Superintendent Pool.
