SPOTLIGHT
By “Nosey”
I received orders today to cut
down the length of my column in
the interest of other affairs which
are talcing place in town at the
present time, and which require
a certain amount of publicity
space, so here goes.
Generally conceded to be the
best all-around baseball game of
the winter series, the contest last
night between the Huskies and
Commercials, proved to be the
greatest single game to attract
enthusiasm in this winter sport.
Magnificently played, the boys on
both teams deserve a big hand
for their performances last night.
Excellent pitching and almost,
faultless fielding kept the score
down, and the Huskies emerged
the winner 9 to 7.
—
The game between the High
School Girls and the Blazers was
a walk-away for the Hi-Girls,
who won by a score of 16 to 4,
outpointing the girls on the other
team in every department. That
speed-ball pitcher for the Hi
Girls, Alice Martin, has everyone
fanning the air, and when they
hit, it nearly always is only a
scratch.
Well the Hammon automatic
ally become champions of the
men’s series, with the defeat last
night of the Commercials, which
bring the Huskies, Alaskans and
Commercials into the same stand
ing, won two and lost three, with
only two games left to be played.
Therefore the Hammon, being un
defeated, would still be champs
as they could not lose three
games, and only two left to play.
What the decision of the Lea
gue Board will be, as to whether
the series should continue in con
nection with the women’s games
is a question. They expect to
meet soon and announce at the
earliest moment what plans they
have for the continuation of base
ball. Until then everything re
mains undecided.
The new pitcher for the Com
mercials, Willie O’Mara, proved
to be somewhat of a sensation in
himself, holding some of those
heavy sluggers on the Huskies to
very few hits. Possibly by next
year, we will see him in action
more often.
Class Citizenship
Supt. Calvin Pool of the Nome
Public School, in speaking of vo
cational courses now taking place
as a result of arrangements first
commenced by Territorial Direc.
tor A. E. Schoettler while here
last fall, stated that there was an
opportunity for the establish
ment of a class in citizenship, de
signed primarily for training of
those who might desire to take
out citizenship papers, or to com
plete examinations for their final
papers.
Should there be sufficient inter
est aroused, such a class might be
started, he declared. Anyone, so
interested, is directed to commun
icate with Supt. Pool.
