STUBBING; VICTIM
CLIFFORD SIMONSON HELD IN
FAIRBANKS FOR ATTACK ON
J. MCDONALD
James (Red) McDonald is confined
to St. Joseph’s hospotal with a deep
knife wound in his right breast and
Clifford Simonson is held in the
Fairbanks federal jail as the result
of an altercation terminating in a
fight early this week in the yard of
a home occupied by Mrs. Lillian
Kennedy on Third Avenue, between
Lacey and Noble streets reports the
News Miner. McDonald lately was
employed by the Fairbanks Explora
tion Co. as a truck driver, and Si
monson, who has been in Fairbanks
since last fall, is attached to the
radio station.
When McDonald’s condition was
discovered he was taken to the
Golden Gate hotel until a truck
could be found to convey him to the
hospital, where a physican had been
called to attend him. It is said his
right lung was penetrated by the
knife, and it is also stated that the
wound has not been completely clos
ed, for fear of internal bleeding. It
is believed he will recover, although
he is greatly weakened from loss of
blood. Simonson was placed under
arrest by Deputy Pat O’Connor, who
was summoned shortly after dis
covery of the affray. No one witness
ed the fight, it is said.
J. L. McAllen, Willow Creek mining
operator, will be among those arriv
ing in the city within the next few
days en route to the States. Mrs.
McAllen, his wife, passed thru Sew
ard last Saturday and is now at Cor
dova, where Mr. McAllen will join her.

ROBERTS-URBACH WINNERS

tured all three games played. Paul
steiner is an old hand at the game,

The wedge ‘-'splits” th air and
