It
for fifteen minutes when the acei- :,
dent became apparent. Dr. David L
H. More, of the Commission hos-;,
j1
pita! staff, viewing the game from j \
the shade near the school building, |
hurried across the field for an ex-I.
amination. As it was seen that the .
player had been hurt, an auto was .
rushed in from the sidelines and ,
Dr. More accompanied Wenzel to!
the hospital. WThen interviewed,
after an X-rav of the arm had:
been taken, the doctor stated that
Wenzel had sustained a fracture of j
the upper arm about three inches i
above the elbow and that he prob-j
ably would remain in the hospital
for some time. The boys of botn
teams were badly upset by the oc- j
currence.
I
When the game was resumed,
Mills replaced W’enzel in the box,
McLaughlin catching. Taylor was |
safe on a fielders’ choice, Fuelling
being plucked at the plate. Doner ]
hit into a double play, which retired
the side.
In the fifth, Nenana grabbed a
run by a walk, a stolen base, a
passed ball and a hit by Blakey. In
the next inning, their last run of
the game was added when McMullen
fumbled and Doner and Rosburg j
hit. In the eighth, Hansen struck
out three men, but still was scored
on when the ball, being returned by
the catcher, hit the man at bat and
rolled. It was Fairbanks’ game all
the way. Score: Nenana 3, Fair
banks 9. Batteries: Hansfn and
Douse for Nenana; W’enzel, Mill
Second Game.
j To permit the Fairbanks aggre
igation to return home by Monday,
it was decided to call the remain
ing two games at 10 a. m. and 4
Ip. m . respectively, Sunday. The
: morning game saw a shakeup in the
'Nenana team, Blakey going behind
'the bat and Douse to right field.
I Nenana got a running start and
; piled up four runs in the opening
frame and were never headed after
!that. Fairbanks had trouble from
the start off. Bidwell, pitching for
• the upper town, was yanked out
! after allowing several hits in order,
j Fowler relieving him. Two dropped
| balls in left caused a walk to the
bench for the unlucky player from
that station. The players became
steadier after that, but the lapse
was costly.
Fairbanks came back in their
half of the first with three runs,
and then goose-eggs were in order.
In the ninth the visiting boys caused
a flutter of heart trouble for the
local fans when they suddenly found
the ball for two hits, and these,
aided by clever work on the bases
jand an error, brought in three runs.
,'The raMy was short-lived and the
'game was over with a score of 10
to 7 in favor of Nenana. Blakey
ihit a thousand in this game, with
two doubles and two singles out of
! four times up.
IThi-xl Game.
With each team holding a game
to their credit, an immense crowd
turned out for the afternoon ses
sion. The weather was perfect, a
slight breeze taking away the sharp
est edge of the sun’s strength. This
game was a regular old slugging
‘contest, the kind that delights the
fans more than a pitchers’ battle,
'and if noise and enthusiasm are
any criterion, nobody left the park
: complaining of a dull time. The
! courtesy of the Fairbanks people
| was sharply brought out when they
I all raised in their seats before the
'game started and gave three cheers
for Nenana. The occasion of the
outbreak was the announcement
from the stand that the people of
Nenana, in order properly to show
their sympathy for the injury to
one of the visiting players, wished
to present him with a hundred and
tkirty-one dollars collected for that
purpose. The incident did much to
take away any feeling of gloom
caused by the accident. A second
diversion was caused before the
game was called by the arrival on
the field of Dr. M. E. Smith, straight
from the Outside. He broke all
speed records in making the last
stage of his journey in order to
arrive in time to see the series of
games. He made the field just
before the game was called, and for
a while was the busiest man on the
grounds. The game was started
shortly after four.
Both teams started clouting the •
pill in the opening stanza, and from
then on there were men on bases
most of the time. Nenana held a
slight lead until the sixth, when
Fairbanks came from behind and
tied the score, 8 to 8. Many loyal
followers of the game are very
hoarse today as a result of their
frantic efforts to spur their par
ticular team to break the tie and
ease the strain. Nenana turned the
trick in the eighth, when they
scored two on a walk, an error, and
a clean hit. Several very fast plays
and pretty throws nipped other runs
for each side. Fuelling made a
circus catch of a difficult high foul
back of third that was a beauty.
Fairbanks added another run to
their eight in the first half of the
ninth inning. This had no effect
on the final result, but it showed
the spirit that keeps trying until
the last. Indeed, all the boys de
serve the highest praise for the way
they fought every game out to the
finish, in view of the fact that they
.played three complete games in less
than twenty-four hours and danced
most of the night on Saturday. The
Fairbanks boys had slightly the
worst of this, as they were also
forced to play the first game just
after a tiresome run down the river
on the barge. Three games in the
length of time the visitors were
here is acknowledged to be too
much, and on other occasions more
time will be arranged for in order
to complete the series. The Nenana
team expects to play a return en
gagement at Fairbanks on or near
Labor Day.
Scor of the final game: Nenana
10, Fairbanks 7. Batteries: Hansen
and Blakey- for Nenana; Mills and
McLaughlin for Fairbanks.

PALMER HAS COMPLETED
WORK ON FAIRBANKS LINE
George Palmer has completed his
grading sontract on the N'enana
Fairbanks line and is now in town
for settlement. His contract was
for half a mile of grade, about four
miles north of the river.
Palmer reports that he was great
ly handicapped in his work by un
favorable weather conditions, sev
enty days having been required to
complete a contract which should
have been finished in a third of that
time.
The work was started before the
frost was out of the ground, and
almost from the commencement of
operations frequent rains added
greatly to the difficulties.
Dan Hill, internal revenue collec
tor, who has been in Fairbanks
during the past several days, wii!
visit the Tolovana country this week,
having made arrangements to make
the trip to the logjam on the steam
