LOTTERY TICKETS
NEll ICE POOL
CHECKED 111
MAY 13TH, 1:13 P. M. IS COVERED
BY 148 CHANCES. SAYS RE
PORT
The tedious task of cheeking the
37,211 tickets, entered this year in
the Nenana ice pool sweepstakes has
been completed by the Nenana com
mittee reports the News Miner. A
complete list has been made giving
|
names of purchasers of tickets and
the time of guesses. A copy of the;
list is open for inspection at the
Horseshoe Cigar store. Writing to
Harry Phillips from Nenana, Alfred
Ghezzi, chairman of the committee
said the checking was “the biggest
little job I’ve tackled for a long
time.”
A study of the list shows that in
terest in the lottery has extended to
every town in Alaska. Ketchikan
and Juneau, as w'ell as points farth
er north, are weld represented.
Seventy-two tickets were rejected
because they had no names; 36 did
not have “a. m.” or “p. m.” marked;
9 tickets were rejected because the
month was left out. Pour persons
forgot to mark the hour and six left
the date out.
Eighteen were dated too early, be
fore the lottery closed on April 16.
Thirty-nine tickets were improperly
marked and one was illegible. Two
persons guessed the Ice would go out
on April 31. One ticket was a total
blank. A refund will be made in
those cases where the signature is
on the card. The money which can
not be returned will be left in the
pool.
The most optimistic gambler be
lieved the ice would go out on March
30 and the most pessimistic chose
May 26. The majority of tickets
are between May 9 and May 14.
The 13th was a favorite day and is
fairly plastered with chances. Thir
teen was a favorite number through
out. May 13, 1:13 p. in. is covered
by 148 chances. If the ice goes out
then each of the 148 persons would
get $251.42 if no deduction were made
from the gross amount of the lottery.
May 13 at 3:13 p. m. is covered by
98 chances.
