BASEBALL PLANS MATURING; j
GAMES ON FOURTH ASSURED
While it is impossible at this time
to announce definitely the coming
of the Fort Gibbon baseball team
for a series of games during the
Fourth of July celebration, Manager
Tom Mathews has assured The News |
that in case of the inability of the
army team to get here in time for
the celebration, a series of games
will be staged between the locals
and a team from Healy, where a
very strong lineup is reported to
have been developed. In fact, it Is
said that the Healy bunch will come
to town with very substantial back
ing, and Manager Mathews admits
that it will keep the Nenana boys
on their toes to capture the series.
Should the Gibbon team be able
to make the trip up river, the plan
is to pick a defending team from
the town and Healy lineups, as it is '
understood the army town has a
very speedy aggregation.
Manager Mathews received a wire
from Gibbon today, inquiring about
arrangements for the series, and !i.
intimated that the team will come1
if it is possible to make connections
with a transport, either with the
Jacobs, which is still at Whitehorse,
or with the Davis, which should
leave Nenana for Gibbon within the
next few days.
There is not a chance to get a
game with Fairbanks on the Fourth.
Manager Mathews says. He was in
Fairbanks this week for the pur
pose of arranging a series here
either during the celebration or
later, but found that no steps had
been taken by the fans of the up
per town to put a team in the field,
although it was stated that a team
probably would be organized, fol
lowing the arrival of Charles Fow
ler, from the Beaver country. He
arrived during the visit of Manager
Mathews, but said he expected to
leave for the States within a month.
Ike Taylor, formerly a member of
the Nenana team, will play with
Fairbanks this summer, should a
team be organized there.
There will be another practice
game at the local park tomorrow
afternoon between the two local
teams, and a fast game is-promised,
as the boys have been drilling hard
in an effort to make places on the
lineup which will meet Healy or
Gibbon, as the case may be. These
two teams, if necessary, could fill
in the baseball feature of the cele
bration program, and make a very
creditable showing. It is more de
sirable, however, to play a town
team against a visiting team.
The game tomorrow will start at
two o’clock and the public is in
vited to attend.
C. A. Shunacher, Alaska repre
sentative of the Zellerbach Paper
Company left for Anchoi ige this
