COMMITTEE.
The Kennel Club Athletic Com
mittee who have charge of arrange
ments for the athletic meet to be

have decided to augment their pro
\ gram for that night, and will intro
duce to the Nome public two of the
fautst basket ball aggregatl'.ons of
players under the age of fifteen
years ever seen on a gymnasium
floor.
These boys are pupils of the Nome
public shoots where two teams have
been solcctod. Instead of playing
the regular period these teams will
play but one-half the time usually
allowed and owing to the many other
events the program will be one of
considerable length.
Fort Davis will not play the Bear
cats as advertized in yesterdays
Worker, but will again clash swords
with the Sourdough nine who took
them into camp at the last meet.
Charles Thompson will catch
for the soldier boys whose pitcher
Dame is a big leaguer. This will ’
make a most interesting game and •
the wise fans predict that the P’ort 1
boys will pack off the bacon.
The basket ball event will be the
fastest thing in that line seen for
years. Faxon Lewis will lead the
Northern Lights into battle with
Charles Thompson in command of
the opposing team.
Tickets will be on sale on next
Friday at Lomen's Drug Store.
