THE SKAGWAY CELEBRATION:
Big doings are on the card for the festivi
ties in Soapy Sraith*s town on tomorrow,(Saturday),and
Sunday* A baseball tournament is naturally the big
event,with teams from Whitehorse,Y*T.,Fort Seward,and
Skagway competing#for the purse of $ 100*00.
A Hose Fight,between two 10-ipan teams,is
another drawing card,the winner to receive ^.50*00*
Field Sports,a Tug-of-War,and a Tennis Tournament,in
which Fort Seward will probably enter a team,with
attractive prizes for all events,are also on the program#
The U •S.HeB*,’Fornano e” will leave for Skag
way at 1#00 P.M# tomorrow^and will return not earlier
than midnight of the same day# This will insure all the
oelebrators a chance to enjoy thoroughly the doings
of the afternoon and evening,especially since a big
dance at thh White lass Hall is scheduled at 9.00 P.M*
THE JUNEAU FESTIVITIES:
If a cable which is expected from 9th Corps
Area Hdqtr's#arrives at t he lost this afternoon,and
will permit it,the "Formic e" will make the trip to
Juneau bearing the revellers who wish to help the Cap
ital City celebrate the Geelorious Fourth. The Harbor
Boat will leave the lost probably about noon Sunday,and
will pull out of Juneau,for the return trip,at midnight
on Tuesday night*. The uncertainty of the time of the
arrival of the expected transport is proving a serious
obstacle in formng any definite plans for the sailing
times at either end c? the trip,but it is essential that
the excursionist? be back at the Fort at least one day
before the arrival of General Morton.Arrangements are
being made with Ibat in mind*
