INDOOR BASEBALL
(Continued from Page Seven)
Yanks forged ahead again when they
scored two runs on Barnett’s walk
/
and the hits of Shellldon and Mc
Ewan. Could the Yanks have blanked
the Senators in the first of the ninth
'the game would have been over and
•the Yankees credited with the first
win. Johnson started the rebellion
by stealing second and third after
he had singled to center. Yal lined
to McEwan and Johnson was held
at third. Shelly’s hit sent Nip home,
and as theYankee fielders again dem
onstrated their mania for throwing
the ball everywhere but the right
place,, the Senator in chief sneaked
home so rapidly and quietly Snyder
was dead asleep when the throw
home was made, and thescore was
.tied once more. Nor did the gentle
men from the senate stop here; Bar
nett steamed up at this point and
his fast ball had an extra hop; he
threw out Bob Manthey but Protz
man and Gus Manthey found him for
safeties. Protzman tallied and when
McEwan dropped Johnson’s easy fly
Gus came in and the Senators were
two runs to tftie good.
The Yanks insisted upon tying it
up again in their last half of the
ninth and the game went into extra
innings. Each side earning one run
in the tenth, the eleventh loomed
dp. Three runs were made by the
> (Senators, the winning markers, in
1 (the first of the eleventh, but the
Yanks failed to register a comeback
again, and a mighty good ball game
went to the Senators deservedly.
The Senators meet the Giants Mon

i PROFITEERING IN
REINDEER MEAT
I •
A local butcher is responsible for
the statement that he was recently
> offered reindeer at thirty cents per
pound by the carcass whereas the
same meat can be purchased in Seat
tle for eighteen cents a pound. The
deer are shipped out from the Kusko
kwim and placed on the Seattle mar
ket, wholesaling at 18 cents the pound
i by the carcass. The deer offered Sew
ard residents are grazed alongside
the railroad and could be sold at a
| much less price if it expects to com
pete with the Kuskokwim deer: This
is one reason why Alaskans have no
market for home-grown stuff. It costs
far more at home than after it is
shipped outside and sent back.
Numerous Xmas Parcels
Await Return of Reeds
_
Upon the return of Mr. and Mrs.
Ralph Reed to Seward soon from the
States where they have been travel
ing about having a good time for the
past two months, they will have a
surprise in wait'for them. In other
words, a. second Christmas, During
their absence numerous and many
Christmas gifts, about 40 packages in
all, have been piling up in the mar
shal’s office and in addition to these,
there is a stack of letters about a
yard high.
No word has been received from the
Reeds as to their probable time of re
turn, but it is expected they will sail
north on one of the next steapiers.
When last heard from they were in
California but were thinking of mo
toring across to Florida for a brief
inspection trip.

gathering of the sap and making ma
ple syrup in the Canadian woods; the
manufacture of watches; and also a
picture entitled “Into the Big Cy
press,” the alligator country and also

A. Malcolm Smith Knows
Arctic Routes Perhaps
Better Any Alaskan
A. Malcolm Smith, second in com
mand of the North Pole exploration
party which advance agents arrive
in town tomorrow from Seattle was
connected with the Gerald Fitzgerald
party of government survey men, dur
ing their work in the naval oil reserve
within the Arctic Circle last summer.
It is stated there are few men in the
Territory who are as familiar with
that little known region where trails
are seldom seen, than Mr. Smith, who
is better known to his host of north
ern friends as plain “Alex.”
Mr. Smith arrived at Nome on the
steamship Boxer last fall from the
Kotzebue Sound country. From Nome
he embarked on the steamship Victo
ria for Seward, remaining here for
about a week.

ONE
GOOD TEST
—of the purity and stability of a
motor oil is the amount of carbon
it forms.
Zerolene forms, on an average,
30% less carbon than other oils.
The carbon is soft and fluffy and
most of it blows out with the ex'
haust. For this reason the Zero'
lene'lubricated automobile or mo'
tonboat may be driven from 25 %
to 50% farther without having
the valves ground or the cylinders
rebored.
Zerolene forms less carbon than
any other motor oil \nown to us.
Insist on Zerolene—a better oil.
Ask for it by name—Zerolene.
