Under the direction of LieurTUaertens of
Company "E”, the skaters of both MEM and "F” Cos .are busily engaged
in putting in a first class skating and hockey rink on Chilkoot Bar
racks Park• Ihe side walls have already been set,and today the rink
is being flooded,while the Chaplain has been instructed to pray hard

condition in a couple of days*
hockey plans are being perfected by both the companies,
and a number of good in ter-company games are assured^'E1’’ Co.clains
to have the makings of a very strong seven in Lit.i*aertens, Sgt .Reed,
Cpl.Grant, lUrner, Cpl.Lepple, and others,while ’’F” Co.,with Prinz,
Davidson,Cpl*Cole,and many nore threaten to make it interesting for
any opponents*.
It is hoped that a crackerjack Post Hockey Seven may he
•developed later on,as Skagway has already issued a challenge to the
Chilkoots, and Haines might be induced to hold up its athletic none
on the iced aurface,5ae well as on the basketball floor* If the pres

ialize, a splendid Winter Ice Carnival night be staged before the cold
•.weather departs* Skagway is planning one,-and if Skag can put such a
proposition across,-there1s no question but the Chilkoot Barracks can.

The Post basketball tean (which we'll have to label.-.the

tal City on the last '’Estebeth'*, for the purpose of netting used to
those extra-sized Juneau basketball floors. The Post Athletic Offi
cer received word that the Juneau City Tean would be unable to meet
the Soldiers,but a gaue was immediately arranged with the equally
strong Juneau High School,-and that fracas will take place on Friday
ni ;ht,-Jan.5th.The '’Fomance” will be in Juneau in plenty of time to
allow its passengers to take in the contest. Capt.Clarke was. accompan
ied by Cpl.Rogers and Bruhn, (forwards),-Vilson,uatthews, and Baitinger,
(guards).It is hoped that Sgt.Andruszkiewicz, the Denon Center,nay be
able to join the tean in the Friday night gone.
3he Post Bowlers will meet the Juneau Elks,on the Elks’
Alleys,after the basketball pane on Friday.Die line-up of that Post

make the trip south.
