ANNUAL SMOKER
PLANS OF CLUB
ASSUMING FORM
Plans are maturing: rapidly for
the big' annual smoker to be held
at Union hall on Saturday night
under the auspices of the Nenana
Commercial club. The members of
the smoker committee are not say
ing much, but they are busy every
minute1 of the time, and it is whis
pered that some exceptionally good
talent has been lined up for the
event. President Bowen is also
working on the entertainment fea
ture of the smoker and will intro
duce a surprise or two during the
evening as his contribution to the
program.
The smoker given by the club a
year ago was one of the most suc
cessful affairs of the kind ever wit
nessed in Interior Alaska, and those
in charge of the second annua!
smoker will strive to make the
coming event equally as enjoyable,
if not more so.
Forma! announcement of the
smoker is being made today in the
form of personal letters addressed
to the businessmen and others of
the town, urging their attendance
and the attendance of their em
ployes. The club members want
the townspeople, the men folks, to
enjoy the evening with them.

ON GREAT SHOW;
! TURNOUT LARGE
j The social session which followed
jthe regular meeting of Nenana Ig
jloo, Xo. 17, Pioneers of Alaska, last
| night at Union hall, was one of the
imost enjoyable affairs of the sea
son and was very largely attended
.by the olatimers and their guests.
'The business meeting also was large
ly attended and considerable busi
ness cf importance was transacted,
including the nomination of officers
for the ensuing year. The election

As a concluding feature, three
fast boxing bouts \vere staged and
'were hugely enjoyed. The first was
a four-round contest between Ken
neth McLean and Carl Schmidt, Jr.,
!
knowm in ring circles as "Pete
Schmidt’s Cyclones.” The boys were
very evenly matched and showed
paintaking tutorage on the part of i
their trainer. The exhibition was
one of the best witnessed in Xe
' nana and made such a hit with the
;oidtimers that the boys were fairly
deluged with the shower of silver
that was tossed on the mat.
Krause and Kroal, introduced as j
Uncle Sam’s Whirlwinds, then went
on for three rounds and gave a very
pleasing exhibition.
They were followed by Xenana’s
heavyweight pair, veterans of the
^ squared circle, Joe O'Connor and A1
Johnson. It was Joe’s first appear
ance in the ring for a considerable
time, but he was perfectly at home
and as agile as in the old days,
when he took on all comers. John
son also was in good form and fast
'enough to make the bout interesting
