Under the capable management of
Fred Tracy, i t baseball players rep
resenting this city in the Seward
games, will leave tomorow night at
10 o’clock on the government boat
Alaska for mile 20 above Kern creek,
from there the party takes the train
and should reach Seward Thursday
afternoon.
Several fans will accompany the
team and the entire city will send its
moral support.
The trustees of the Anchorage Ath
letic association responded nobly to -
Manager Tracy’s call yesterday after
noon and raised $170.00 by popular
subscription, which with the $95.00
realized from the dance Saturday
night will relieve the financial situa
tion arising from expenses not cover
ed by the $300 guaranteed from Sew
ard.
Costello will pitch and win the first
game, with Amundsen catching; the
balance of the personnel of the team
will appear in tomorrow’s paper.

Secretary Koch
to Gather Data
A. S. Koch, secretary of the An
chorage Chamber of Commerce, leaves
on tomorrow morning’s train for an
extended trip to the Matanuska
farming country, the Moose creek
coal and the Willow creek gold camps.
His visit to the Matanuska valley will
be with the intention of gathering
data relative to the farming condi
tions of that section; take pictures of
the homesteads and farms for the ad
vertisement of the valley and show
what may be done in this part of
Alaska in the line of agriculture.
Mr. Koch will spend some time in
the region of Moose creek also, gath
ering data to be used in connection
with the Chamber of Commerce and
ascertain Jlie statys of the coal situa
tion in regard' to the supply for the
local market. From Moose creek Mr.
Koch will take the trail through the
farming community, getting a line on
the number of farmers, their produc
tion and possible output for this and
next year’s crops, together with all
information necessary to answer the
hundreds of letters of inquiry that
come to the Chamhc of Commerce
with reference to the Matanuska and
Susitna valleys.
His vi it to the gold camps in the
Willow c;\.tk district will also be up
on the lines of advertising Anchorage
and it is his intention to get a fair
compilation of the operators of this
district in regard to their output,
j numb- of men employed and pro
| posed development contemplated for
next .

igements have been made
ifferent parties interested in
ovalities to meet Mr. Koch and
p should be of vast benefit both
Anchorage Chamber of Com
and the industries of these lo
; the idea of co-operation is
i fast taking hold of this community
and i t . effort has been made by the
local body to foster the movement.
An exhibit will be gathered from the
j different sections to be sent to the
j Northwest Land and Products exposi
! tion to be held in Seattle October 4th
:to the 14th.
Mr. Ivoch is taking this trip on his
own initiative and at his own expense
\ and will unquestionably result in
much good for the Anchorage Cham
ber of Commerce and the community.
The Saturday night dance for the c
benefit of the All-Anchorage baseball c
players at the instigation of Jack Ro- g
barts resulted in a huge success, both f
socially and financially. Over one t
hundred-couples were in attendance
1 and the dancers made the most of the t
1 splendid music and a fine boor until a ii
late hour. One hundred and forty- g
three tickets were sold and only the a
actual expenses were deducted, net- a
ting $95.00 to go towards defraying v
the expenses of the heavy hitters of, f
the All-Anchorage baseball team to r

BY GAS BUGGY, IS NOT
TO FORSAKE THE DOG
PORTLAND, Or., August 8.—
‘Scotty” Allen, three times winner of
the famous All-Alaska sweepstakes,
ivho can take a sledge over the frozen
wastes of the north with a dog team
faster than any other driver in the
world, has succumbed to the lure of
:he gasoline wagon.
Scotty is in Portland on his way to
Seattle, where he will sail for Nome.
In Oakland, Cal., for several weeks,
le has directed the building of a mo
or sledge for use in the Arctic circle,
f it is the success it is expected to be
t will make the dog teams of the
'rozen north a thing of the past.
Allen took 440 sledge dogs to the
lilies last year. There are still 30 rac
ng dogs in the kennels owned by Al
en and Mrs. C. E. Darling, of Berke
ey. Allen says he will drive again in
he All-Alaska classic next April.
L,ast winter, for the first time in nine
rears, Allen did not drive in the big
•ace. He was in Europe.
