SHAMROCKS WIN
IN CLOSE GAME
The Anchorage passengers who
disembarked from the Admiral Ev
ans last night really thought the
game was for their benefit; it is sur
passing what egotism some people
assume upon reaching Anchorage.
For their information will say that
the baseball game last night was In
observance of June 21st, the longest
day in the year, unless you happen
to live in a wet town and it is the
day after the night before. And too,
Nome and Fairbanks have been
crowing long enough about being on
ly towns that could pull off this
stunt. Isn't it pitiful that court
isn't in session in Seward so they
could have drawn on some of the of
ficials to get the required number of
able bodied men it takes to play a
n atch game of baseball? The game
was witnessed by about 500 fans who
literally scratched their way through
and the wild, ungraceful gesticula
tions were not an exhibition of calis
thenics so much as from a spirit of
relief and revenge. rhe:\> was ab
solutely no way to get an accurate
count on them for each .if the 500
claimed they entertained the great
er number. It certafflly was a night
for the egotist, although the dainty
wearers of the silk drop stitch and
French heels suite red the most and
had the farthest to reach.
No more shall the man from New
Jersey proudly boast of the size ol
them without a call; never again will
it be permitted the man who claims
he discovered the Yukon to mention
numbers and S3 to their pertinacity,
there is no chance for argument.
Outside of the small matter of mos
quitoes, the game was good and the
Shamrocks non by the score of 6 to
3.
The game was late in starting but
was fast, snappy and well-played.
The crowd seemed to enjoy it and
there was lots of noise, tin horrs,
