The first item on the program
was n three-round bout between
Harry Motsehman, champion light
weight of Nenana, and Wilfred

The boys went to it with a will, the
last round being a regular ding

sounded time, the lads retired with
the honors very evenly divided.
Norvin Smith and Percy Wann
were next on the program for a
four-round bout, but at the end of
the third round an old injury to his
knee made it impossible for Warn;

Gaylord Peterson next treated the
gathering to a well-executed step
dance, which won hearty applause.
A well rendered song by Charlie
Carol!, accompanied by himself on
the guitar, was applauded to the
■echo. This was followed by several
selections by the orchestra, compos
ed of Prof. Ernst Berggreu, Prof.
A. L. Carpenter, B. W. Miller, Tom
Ilronsky, “Whitey" Bcrgquist and
Charlie Cnroll. The music was of u
high order and each item rendered
came in for much applause at its
conclusion.
A regular sourdough lunch, for
which the Pioneers are famous, was
served, after which several more
selections were rendered by the or
chestra.
The Pioneers are. planning on
■giving an entertainment and dance
on February 22, in honor of Wash
