CELEBRATION CONCLUDED;
VISITORS BACK TO WORK
The Xenana celebration was brot ]
to a close on Tuesday with an en
tire day devoted to a varied pro-!
pram, commencing with patriotic ex
ercises in the forenoon, track events
on A street during the afternoon
and water races and a dance in the
evening. One of the big features of
the day was the auto race, in which
Frank Teufel, with his farm model
Ford, carried off the honors. Billy |
Coghill was a close second with his I
delivery model and Mike Cooney,
with his hotel bus. finished third.
The George Rich car sprang a leak
in one of the tires and finished at
the rear end of the procession.
There was a large crowd on the
street throughout the sports and the
enjoyment of the day was general
and the events keenly contested.
The celebration was brought to
a grand finale with an open air
dance at the tennis court, the affair
being very largely attended and
very much enjoyed.
Visitors from the various camps
along the line south of Xenana,
left for home yesterday morning
on special trains, and the railroad
work in all departments has re-'
sumed its normal pace again.
Xotwithstanding the fact that the
original plans of the committee were
upset by the failure of the An
chorage ball team to make its ap
pearance, and by the further fact;
that weather conditions were not
the best for celebrating, the Xenana
celebration probably was fully as
successful as any held in the terri
tory. Rain completely spoiled the
Fourth at Anchorage, and Fair
banks lost its baseball feature as
the result of rain. That town also
had the misfortune of being disap
pointed by the non-arrival of its
scheduled aerial stunt.
The Anchorage Times, under date
of July 1, had the following to say
about the Nenana celebration:
NO NENANA CELEBRATION
Word received in Anchorage this
morning that the town of Nenana
has called off the intended Fourth of
July celebration and will celebrate
in Fairbanks. It is understood that
Nenana cancelled the celebration on
account of being unable to arrange
a series of baseball games with one
of the Anchorage teams.
W. A. James, of Los Angeles, who
arrived in Nenana several days ago.
has a plan to interest men and
women of the community in the re
opening of the Presbyterian church
as a reading room for the benefit
of all who desire to avail themselves
of the advantages of such a place.
Mr. James also desires to organize
Sunday school classes for young and
old and will meet with the ladies
of the town with that end in view.
Mr. James will go to Fairbanks on
Monday and will return with Rev.
Fred G. Scherer to make final ar
rangements for starting the classes.
Services will be held at the local
church on Sunday by Mr. James.
The transport General Jacobs, af
ter a stay of several days in port,
sailed for Fort Gibbon yesterday
evening and will return to Nenana
on July 10 to meet the general offi
cer who is on a tour of inspection
of the army posts in Alaska. Gen
eral Morton will arrive here from
Anchorage during the coming week
and will proceed immediately to the
army town to formally close the
post there.
