; WINNING STREAK OF
! BOSTON RED SOX
: BROKEN BY YANKEES
NEW YORK, May 20. (/P>—1The
pitching of Herb Pennock and
George Pipps, Yankees, took a
doubleheader from the Boston Red- ‘
sox and thereby ended their los- j
; ing streak of five games. Pipgrass
held the Boston men to one
scratch hit and shut them out.
In two of the weirdest games |
probably ever to have been wit
nessed, Broooklyn and Philadel
phia made 50 runs and 66 hits,
including seven home runs. Eleven
pitchers saw action and issued 77
bases on balls. In addition Har
vey Hedrick, Brooklyn shortstop,
made two put outs in a double
play.
The regular weekly business
meeting and luncheon of the
chamber of commerce will be held
tomorrow at noon.

ALASKA HERO
I . i
'Mrs. W. H. Fawcett, wife of the
j nationally known known pub
lisher, both of whom are well
acquainted with Alaska and Alas
kans due to trips up here, in
| forms the Gateway, in a letter re
ceived Saturday from her sum- j
mer home at Robbinsdale, Minn., |
I that her suggestion for a hero ;
medal for Walter Kosoff, who two
years ago was the main instru- j
ment in saving the life of Bessie J
Howe, Westward school teacher1
who accidently shot herself in |
the abdoman while cleaning a
shot-gun, was not approved by
the Carnegie Hero Fund Com- j
mission with whom Mrs. Faw
cett gave all details of the great
sacrifice made by Kotoff; and of
the ultimate saving of the young
woman’s life.
Mrs. Fawcett’s letter follows:
The Seward Gateway
| “I am enclosing herewith a
| letter from the Carnegie Hero
! Fund Commission which is self
I explanatory. I am, of course,
| very sorry that my suggestion
I for a Hero Medal for Walter Ko
! toff was not concurred in by the j
| Commission.
“When you have read this letter i
! will appreciate if you will mail1
I the same to Mr. Kotoff-he pro
bably would like to keep it as a
| memento of his journey in be- !
half of Miss Howe.”
Yours very truly,
Mrs. W. H. Fawcett
The letter from the Commission
to Mrs. Fawcett:
Mrs. W H. Fawcett, in care of
the Fawcett Publications, Rob
binsdale, Minn.
My dear Madam:
“Referring to previous corres
pondence on the case of Walter
Kotff:
“The Carnegie Hero Fund ap
plies to acts in which conclusive
evidence may be obtained "show
ing that the person performing
the act voluntarily risked his
own life in saving, or attempting
to save, the life of a fellow-being.
“While- Mr. Kotoff’s act is
commendable, from the facts at
hand it does- not appear that it
was attended by any extraor
dinary risk to his own life; and
for this reason his case, I regret
to say, does not come within the
scope of the Fund.”
Yours very truly,
F. M. Wilmot, Mgr.
