HALL TEAM RETURNS
WHIPPED HUT HAPPY
Inhabitant* of Cannery Team Took
(iititie by Score of Fourteen to One
The Valdez hall team, which play
ed a game at Cordova yesterday, re
turned on the launch Katalla Queen,
Capt. Otto Elfstrom, this morning,
and while the hoys drew the short
end of the score, they were loud in
their praises of the manner in which
the sport-loving population of the
Copper City had entertained them,
and enthusiastic over their trip. The
Cordova team took the game by a
score of 14 to 1, in a fast game.
Manager Conley stated that the
Valdez team played their best, but
were outclassed by the Cordova
bunch, who had a couple of good
teams to pick from and who were
cracking good ball players when the
picking was over. Mr. Conley stated
that Cordova had promised a return
game in the near future, when the
local bunch would endeavor to show
our people they could still put up a
good game of ball.

'S.” Sunday for a picnic trip down the
j Sound. Twenty young people made
t the trip, stopping at Shoup’s Bay for
jabout three hours where a sumptuous
picnic dinner was served, after which
1 the surrounding country was explor
ed. interesting discoveries being re
| ported. About five thirty the boat
| carried the party to the Liscuni side
i of the Narrows, landing them in one
| of the many beautiful coves which
line the sound. Her^ a huge bon fire
1 was soon blazing. The return to Val
i dez was begun about eight o’clock,
terminating in the neighborhood of
i nine thirty. The success and good
time enjoyed were greatly heightened
by the genial and obliging nature of
ilie Captain of the ship. Win. Calla
ghan. who turned the boat and all its
furniture and fixtures over to the use
of the young people. In spite of the
cloudy and rather rough weather
every one had the time of their lives
and extended a hearty vote of thanks
to Mr. Herman and Mr. Lindsay.
Those who enjoyed the outing were
Messrs, and Mesdames—W. Thomas
and family. R. D. Kelsey and L. B. ■

Enlist Your Dollars
In the War
In this time of our country’s crisis an idle dollar is
as much a "slacker” as .an idle man. Are your dol
lars doing their duty?
“The Liberty Loan of 1917” invites the immediate
response of the American people. Every dollar sub
scribed will help make it a success. The quicker the
better.
Armies of dollars are an absolute necessity for
national defence. Unless the dollars at home
stand back of them, the soldiers in the field can
not do their utmost to protect our households
and our freedom.
