m J. L. II SCHOOL
GUIS PLSI TONIGHT
Tonight’s the night!
At 8 o’clock tonight, the first
scrimmage game of the season,
ooen to the public, will be played.
The Women’s City League team
and the Jesse Lee high school
girls will mix and mingle in a
game that .promises to be most
exciting.
Judging the teams, it would
seem that the City League team
has a wide margin over the Jes
jse Lee girls, as the localites have
jheigth, age, and playing exper
ience over the J. L. crew.
However, the Jesse Lee girls
! have nothing if not the brave
i spirit, and when a team has
a fighting heart, wonders can be
accomplished,—so don’t be sur
prised at the outcome.
The City League mentor, Gi
lbert Kunz, will probe bly start
( Mrs. Hopkins, Mrs. Noble and
| Miss Kaemmer at guarding posi
; t ions, with Mrs. MacAuley, Miss
; Hill and Mrs. Green at forward
nests. Mrs. MncAuley is a star
! of the first brilliance, and much
! ?s expected of her tonight. Miss
Hill is also a good player, while
this season marks Mrs. Green's
first experience at forwarding.
Mrs. Hopkins is a guard who can
be depended upon on at all times,
and with this aggregation, sup
norted by Miss Kaemmer and
Mrs. Noble, a creditable showing
should be made.
For Jesse Lee, Laura Thompson,
Mary Banks and Eva Williams
will probably start at the for
ward posts, with Annie Goldy,
Annie Smith and Harrietta Lange
at guarding positions. This is a
plucky little team, and should
give the City Leaguers a run
for their money.
There is no admission Jo this
affair, and this match does not,
in any way, figure in any con
tests which will be played to de
termine city championship. It is
merely a scrimmage game, to give
| both teams a good practice, and
| the public is urged and invited
to come out.
Tonight, at 8:30, the fun begins!
The total gold production of the
jlditarod for 1929 is estimated at ap
proximately a quarter of a million
dollars. The bulk of the outmit
came from the Matheson and Riley
'dredges and from operations on
I chicken and Moore creeks.
A REAL MINE

ed from concentrates of Nebesna
free milling ore arrived in Chitina
recently from a Seattle assay office.
The two bars are valued at $912 by

from nine pounds of concentrates
by the recently organized Nabesna
! taken from one of the ledges owned
Mining Corp., the headquarters of
which are in Chitina.
