In the Christmas benefit games
played Wednesday night the Al
askans defeated the Nome team
; 25 to 5 and the Hammon nine
lost to the Qbmmerciate by a
score of 26 to 14.
The games, both of which
were top-heavy in score and
slower-moving than usual were
not up to the standard which
has made baseball Nome’s favor!
j; ite indoor sport. All four teams
h show material but seem to lack i
j,
u coordination. Two more weeks of |
l intensive practice should pro
duce some fast and exciting gam
• es for January 24, when the of
J ficial season opens with the Com
^mercials playing the Alaskans
; and the Hammons playing the
• Nome team.
• It was necessary to postpone
i the Xmas Benefit game nearly
| a month because of the break
’ down of th eschool boiler and it
• was feared that audience enthus
, iasm would drop with the delay.
’ However, the regular fans were
|on hand, and the balcony and
bleachers were filled almost to
capacity.
The Community Christmas I
Fund committee wishes to thank
the townspeople for their sup-1
port and enthusiasm for this be-1
lated phase of .the Christmas pro
gram.
