NEWS NOTES
Inadvertently we omitted to men
tion the name in yesterday’s issue,
of tho young lady who was awarded

Grocery Co.’s ad contest. The verse
was brief ,but according to our
opinion it was rhym’y and ex
cellently composed, and Miss Clara
Meilke is to be highly commended
for her ability as a poetess.

Tonight at the Eagle Hall all of
the contestants in the Basket and
Baseball games will have their final
prastice. The Fort Davis nine will
occupy the floor from 7:15 to 8:15,
after which the Sourdough agrega
ton will practlc until 9 o’clock.
The High School team will shoot
baskets until 9:30, surrendering the
field to the All Nome team who
will keep the leather on the move
for an hour.
Captain Hagen, of the Sourdoughs
announces that his line-up will be
the same as in the last game. Ser
geant Christmann, manager of the
Fort team, sends in a similar report
with the exception of the catcher.
Charles Thompsan will occupy this
position making the Fort battery the
strongest kind of a combinatioln.
The Lilliputian teams—Midgets
and Pigmies—will be led to battle
by Hy Dill and Louis Wittenberg
respectively. A wonderful exhibi
tion of basketball is promsed from
these juvenile athletes and every
boy and girl in the schools will be
on the side lines.
Unciuestionably the game between
All Nome and the High School will
be a battle royal. The betting in
this event is strongly in favor of
the High School who are trained to
the minute. The All Nome five de
clare themselves confident of vic
tory and expect to carry off the
honors.
All school children will be admit
ted at half-price, and, as an incent
ive towards the sale of tickets, each
boy or girl will, on selling five tick
ets, be given free admssion to any
part of the house. A. B. Miller
will issue, tickets to those desirous
of selling same.
The line-up of the various teams
will be published in tomorrow’s
Worker. Tickets are going rapid
ly. Secure your seat for a good
clean entertainment and help swell
the purse for the All-Alaska Sweep
stakes.
Remember that the games wil
start punctually at 8:30 P. M
Thursday night, at Eagle Hall.
