DANCE MUSIC PLEASES
Numerous expressions of approval
of the excellence of the music at the
mask ball Friday were made. This
was attested by the numerous encores
played and to the late hour the orches
tra was kept playing. All members
were “tuckered” out when 3 o’clock
came around, but the pianist probably
was in the sorriest plight, for on each
finger of both hands blisters were
raised.
HANDBALL PLAYERS NOTICE
CHANGE I N SCHEDULE
On Tuesday, January 4, Flickinger
and Jessen will play Dyer and Swet
mann instead of Painter and Blue.
Painter and Blue combination meet
Flickinger and Jessen December 21
on the old schedule. This puts the
next playing date for Painter and
Blue to Monday, January 10, 5 p. m.
GRILL TENDERS DANCE
In compliment to the visiting bas
ketball players Mel Holben, proprie
tor of the Seward Grill, gave a dance
in the banqueting room last night fol
lowing the game. The Signal Corps
orchestra rendered the music until a
late hour. Numerous couples en
joyed themselves.
Financially and every other way,
the annual firemen’s dance, which now
has passed into history, was a decided
success.
After a night’s deliberations on the
problem of who really was the con
sistent star for Seward in both games
in the humble opinion of the Gateway
the honor is handed to “galloping”
Galloway.

TEAMS BATTLE TO LAST SEC
OND...
Seward’s basketball team placed
itself squarely in the line of promi
nence in Alaska last night when it
defeated for the second time the
Alaska College quintet, 19 to 18, at
the S. A. C gymnasium in a manner
which left no doubt that the superior
team triumphed.
Employing the professional style
of play, while the College adhered to
the time-worn college style of the
five-man defense, Seward assumed the
lead, and with the exception of the
second quarter, the College was un
able to go to the front. Seward’s
hard-passing offense proved an able
defense at the same time, and the
College was hard put to wheel into
position for scoring chances.
Seward made nine goals from the
floor, and converted one foul; the Col
lege made eight field baskets and
converted two fouls.
Loftis, former O. A. C. star, topped
both teams in scoring. The rangy col
lege centre accounted for 19 points
in Saturday’s game and 9 in last
night’s game, a total of 28 points of
41 for both games. Saturday’s game
ended 27 to 23 in Seward’s favor.
Willis was the star point-getter for
Seward in both games, donating 15
points; Johnsen followed with 12; An
dresen 11, and Galloway 8.
Willis and Johnsen repeatedly con
nected with the basket from just be
yond the College defense zone, while
the locals were arranged in five-man
formation intent upon forcing the
College to take ‘long shots. As in the
previous game, Galloway worked su
perbly. Chya never appeared in bet
ter fettle. His expert guarding and
accurate passing was great to watch.
Faster games never have been
witnessed in Seward, and they were
marked by clean playing all the way,
and not once was there a squabble.
Spills were frequent, but no one was
hurt. It was a keen pleasure for lo
cal citizens to watch the fine-looking
College boys in action, and it was
equally a pleasure for the local team
to play them, win or lose. To have
won the series—two out of three,- in
cluding the one the locals lost earlier
in the month—was a feat which will
attract attention from athletic cir
cles thruout the Territory. The Sew
ard team made basketball history last
night.
Sunday’s game—First quarter, Sew
ard 4, College 4; second quarter, Col
lege 10, Seward 8; third quarter, Sew
ard 14, College 12; fourth quarter,
Seward 19, College 18.
Field goals—Johnson (3), Willis,
Galloway and Willis each (2); Col
lege converted ^oul shots, Johnsen
(1), College (2).
Referee—Lieutenant Jones.
(Continued on Page Seven)
The general opinion expressed Fri
day night was that the 22nd annual
firemen’s ball excelled all previous
ones. The hall was packed with
dancers and spectators and it was es
timated that more than 100 were in
costume.
