Merchants Basketball
Team In First Place,
Play Again On Tuesday
The Nome Merchants took sole
possession of first place in the
Base-City League last Friday eve
ning when they trounced the
Nome Nanooks 49-30 in the sec
ond game of the doubleheader
tilt. Lomen Commercials made
their debut a successful one in
the opener as they ran up a 46-30
score against the Detachment 23d.
The 23d, who have lost their
first two games, made a fight of
it the first half but faded badly
in the final periods. The winners
held leads of- 12-11, 20-17, 32-22

play on the part of the high
school as they ran up a 9-4 score
at the quarter mark and stretched
it to a 30-9 count at the half. At
the end of the third quarter, the
Merchants led 38-21 and closed
out the final quarter with a 11
point splurge, while limiting the
Nanooks to nine.
Former Nanook players on the
Merchants were paced by George
Bell with 15 points, Gary Long
ley 11, Louis Kost and John Bell

Nome Dog Owners Urged
To Protect Pets With
Anti-Rabies Innoculations
Chief of Police Clyde Glass has
warned the community through
this paper several times that dogs
infected with rabies (hydrophobia)
had been caught in recent weeks
and shot.
Every year from 6,000 to 10,000
dogs in the U.S. have rabies. Ac
cording to a bulletin which is the
property of the Police Department
a bite from a rabid dog can pass
this disease to children and adults.
Thousands of children and adults
'throughout the world are bitten
each year by rabid dogs.
Chief Glass urges that any sus
picious-looking dog be reported
immediately. He also urges that
proper precaution be taken and
vaccination of pets to protect the
family and friends of pets.
