GYMNASIUM PROBLEM
IS BEING DISCUSSED
'
| Officials of the Seward Public
i Schools and students are at pres
ent busy working on some method
to solve the gym problem for the
winter. It is the plan of the school
to take over the Dreamland Hall,
the same as in previous years, but
they have yet to arrange for some
method of financing the project.
There appears to be plenty of
athletic material and potential
members to draw upon for support
and would include, besides, the
students themselves, the handball
players, basketball teams and others
interested in athletics.
Basketball this year has plenty
of material for the formation of
four and perhaps five active teams;
two high school teams, the girls
and boys; the City Women’s team,
the City or Firemen’s team, or a
socalled Alumnae team, composed
of former high school players.
Several meetings have been held
at the school for the purpose of dis
cussing ways and means of solving
the problem and today another
meet was arranged at which it is
expected some definite plans will
| be formed.
Halloween appears to have come
ard as childish pranks, such as
and departed peacefully from Sew
soaping the windows, upsetting ash
cans and moving Marathon moun
tain, were conspicuous by their ab
sence.

which to tame down reports the
Cordova Times,
Fox decided to keep warm from
the inside out and over-did the
part. He was steaming under high
pressure and decided to relieve his
pent-up emotions. He also got the
fine idea tli&t it would be beneficial
to waken up his neighbors so he
loaded his rifle and started shoot
ing at the Copper Center road
house.
A hurried call was sent into Chit
ina by these awakened residents
and a few moments later U. S.
Deputy Marshal Nels Sqrby and
U. S# Commissioner O. A. Nelson j
arrived on the scene.
At a hearing Fox was found guil
ty of having violated the Alaska
Bone Dry law and was sentenced
to serve six months in jail and to
pay a fine of $300.
