and the Commercials, a checkup
of tentative members resulted in
finding that there would be suf-;
ficient material to organize those
two teams without drawing from
any other sources.
Further action of the meeting
decided that the season would be
six weeks, double-header base
ball games to be played once a
week, thereby giving each team
an opportunity of playing each
of the other teams twice during
the season.
Details of practice, referees, or
ganization of the teams themsel
ves were left to captains or man
agers. It was decided by the
meeting, in order to repay the
kindness of President Rydeen of
the School Board, who advanced
the money to obtain the neces
sary equipment, that each team
would purchase two dozen balls
and a half dozen bats at the start
of the season, costing about $48,
in order that Mr. Rydeen would
not have to wait for four or five
months to get his money back,
and at the end of the season,when
expenses are being paid off, the
teams would be reimbursed from
the general athletic fund of the
high school student body.
Superintendent Pool declared
that work was going ahead rapid
ly on equipping the gymnasium,
; and believed that in two weeks’
time, initial practices might com
mence, and the teams prepare for
intensive organization and train
ing, preparatory to the staging of
1 the exhibition games, shortly af
' ter the first of the year.
General discussion pertaining
to conduct of members in the
gym took place and before ad
journing it was decided to meet
again next Monday evening to
arrange for more details, and
possibly the staging of some ball
games for the benefit of the Com
i munity Xmas Fund.

(ity Council
Herd Meeting
Last Night
The city council met in regular
session last night at the city hall
with all councilmen present.
Minutes of previous meetings
were read and approved, and'
bills against the city approved by I
the finance committee were or
dered paid.
Communications to the council
included: the report of Chief of
Police Laws listing eleven per
sons placed in jail during the
month of September on charges
of drunkenness.
A petition from S. W. Taggart
requesting that a street light bej
placed at the foot of B street and |
Main, near the Nome Lumber!
Company, where it is very dark;
of nights, was granted, and the j
street committee instructed to
have such a light installed. The i
subject of placing insurance on
the Nome School Building drew
much conversation and discus
sion. The school committee re
ported receipt of quotations from
G. R. Jackson and B. J. McCon
aghy regarding rates. Mr. Jack
son quoted for his principals a
rate of $16 per one thousand dol
lars for a three year period, and
Mr. McConaghy a rate of $20 per
one thousand dollars for a three
year period. These quotations
were opened up about a week or
more ago, but no council meeting
was held. A subsequent b d was
received from Mr. McConaghy
also quoting $16 per thousand on
insurance. After argument as to
whether they should admit the
second bid of Mr. McConaghy,the
council decided to accept the quo
tation of Mr. Jackson, and pro
ceeded to insure the new school
building for the sum of $50,000
covering building and inside
equipment, tne premium to amo
unt to $800 for the three year
period.
Bids were read for supplying
water for the city building for
'the winter. C. F. Yenney Water
Delivery rendered a bid of eighty
cents a hundred gallons, and the
Poison Water Delivery bid sev
enty-three cents per hundred.
The contract was awarded to the
Poison Water Delivery.
Various members of the stud
ent body organization of the
Nome High school, in a signed
petition to the city council, re
quested the council to consider
installing a school bell outside
the new building. The signers
said they believed this would do
much toward correcting any pos
sible cases of tardiness.
To sell the old school building,
or not to sell, again caused com
ment among council members, it
being stated finally that a com
bination committee of fraternal
orders in Nome was attempting
to develop a plan whereby use
could be made of the old school
building as a meeting place, hall,
etc., for several lodges. As yet i
they had not arrived at a decisive
opinion, but it was reported the
committee planned to send in a
communication soon to the coun
cil, suggesting a use for the build
.
mg.
A report on the checking of the
school equipment for the new,
building was made, and shortages
made known in the receipt of
equipment from the states.
The guardians of the city treas
ury again drew attention to the
expenses and expenditures incur
red of recent months, and that
it would be absolutely necessary
to cut down expenses. Action
was taken during the meeting to
reduce the force of the fire de
partment to three men, and Fay
Morrow was appointed as driver.
It came out at the meeting that
the city had expended the sum
>f over $13,000 since August 1st
t>f this year, more than half of
their regular income from taxa
tion. This serious affair caused
touncilmen to sit. back and pon
ier the fact that they still have
_—; -rrr~_ . —.
another six months to go before
the end of their term in office,
and that there are still regular
bills to be met and other expen
ses.
The meeting adjourned.
