BACHELORS WILL
PLAY BENEDICTS
AGAIN ON SUNDAY
Bachelors, Who Were Badly Beaten
By the Married Men, Now
Seek to Get Even.
What promises to be a very ex
citing game of ball will be played
on Sunday afternoon, commencing
at half past two, at which, it is to
be hoped, there will be a large at
tendance.
Smarting under the big defeat ad
ministered to them by the married
men last Monday, the bachelors
have been nursing the hurt in ex
pectation of being able to put it
all over the married men on the
next occasion of their meeting, and
the opportunity now presented isj
hailed with much delight by the
“kids”. It is rumored that several i
secret meetings have been held by
the bachelors and a system of sig-!
nals arranged with the downfall of
the married men as the main object
in view.
The victorious married men, how- •
ever, are resting easy on the laurels!
won and are entirely confident of [
being able to “soak it” to the bach-1
elors with the greatest ease. They I
are not losing any sleep worrying
over the result of the game to be
played Sunday. They know.
The lineup of the teams will be
as follows:
Married Men—Ike Taylor, A.
Hewitt, W. Blakey, M. J. Cooney,
W. Lawrence, C. H. Hall, E. I.
Foster, Herman Rosburg, J. Cov
ington.
Single Men—Jack Hansen, Sergt.
Fuelling, Mathews, Dick Ward, Van
Houten, Russell Bellerby, Dick
Morris, Privates Lopsidus, Bruder
and Eckerson.
Should the single men be again j
unable to wrest the laurels from!
the married aggregation, it is ex- j
pected that they will challenge the!
married women to a game to be J
played later on.
NOTICE
A regular meeting of the Nenana
Labor Union will be held at the
Nenana_ Lfibor Union Hall at half
past seven o’clock this evening.
All members are urged to attend,
as business of a very important
nature will be up for discussion.
