COLLEGE GIRLS TAKE
VISITORS TOO EXPERIENCED AND
HEAVY FOR LOCAL W. A. C.
FIVE
Outclassing fne Seward girls In
every department of play the College
Girls basketball team romped borne
victors in last night’s game, 16 to 2,
and this morning left for fresh fields
to conquer—Anchorage—after taking
both local games. The College pass
ing in contrast to the locals was far
superior as was also their basket
shooting. Seward made many at
tempts at the hoop but failed to con
nect.
In both games Patricia Ray, who is
attending the College, played on the
visitors’ line-up and put up an excel
lent game, cool and heady. In last
night’s game Clara Manthey, one of
the local stars, made her first appear
ance and gave a good account of her
self until she was forced to retire.,
She saved the team from a whitewash
last night when she made the lone
basket. During both games the coach
es kept changing the girls around,
giving them all a chance to work un
der fire. With another year of prac
tice some formidable players will be
developed.
REBEKAHS MEETING TONIGHT
The Rebekahs will meet this even
ing at 8 o’clock and all members are
asked to be present. Installation
takes place this week.
AUXILIARY INSTALLATION
Installation of officers for the en
suing year of the local Auxiliary Post
of the American Legion will take
place tomorrow (Tuesday) afternoon
at 2 o’clock at the residence of Mrs.
L. V. Ray. All members are request
ed to please be present.
Promptly at S o’clock Saturday
morning a gang of men entered the
S. A. C. hall and within three hours
had removed all the decorations and
all evidence of the big annual dance
the night previous. The floor was
mopped and. was in excellent shape
for the double-header basketball
games Saturday night.
Losing the two games to Seward
the College team’s record now stands:
lost four out of 11.
Judges at the mask ball Friday
night were Miss Ironsides, R. W. Reed
and Professor Abell of the Alaska
College.
SATURDAY’S GAME
The W. A. C. girls basketball squad
went down to defeat before the Alas
ka College girls in the first game
played Saturday night by the score
of 10 to 4. The first half ended with
Seward on the long end of the
score, 4-0, but from the second quarter
the College siowly ran up the score
from zero to 10. The locals did not
score once after this quarter.
Roberta McIntosh, star for the W.
A. C., who made the only points for
her home team, was the target for
the visitors’ onslaught, and thruout
the remainder of the game “Bert”
was smothered on every play. It did
not take the College long to discover
the danger point on the Seward team.
! Elsa Larson and Mary McConnell also
played a snappy game, and they like
! wise came in for a portion of the
attack.
The showing of the local girls was:
cause for surprise for it was generally j
conceded they would lose by quite a:
large margiin, judging from advance j
reports from the roval camp.
Coach Abell of the College refereed
both games.

IHGTtG BLASTS GREET
ARRIV1L OF ALAMEDA
FROM TOE WESTWARD
Arriving in the face of a young hur
ricane blowing down from the north,
the S. S. Alameda returned to port
yesterday morning at 11 o’clock from
the Westward bringing 55 cabin pas
sengers and 23 steerage from herring
plants which closed last week in
Tutka Bay and Halibut Cove. Follow
ing the embarking of local and passen
gers from the Interior, the steamer
continued on its way south an hour
later.
Westbound the Alameda dropped an
chor off Seldovia, but found all pas
sengers gone, so proceeded on to
Halibut Cove, arriving there Satur
day afternoon. From the cove the
vessel went to Tutka Bay for the can
nery help and returned to the cove,
where additional passengers boarded.
At 10 o’clock Saturday night the ves
sel got under way for Seward, but off
Cape Elizabeth ran into a dirty blow.
Everything had to be roped or nailed
down for the cargo began waltzing
up the bulkheads.
Shoving out the gang-plank er
day the gale shipped it over t.ie side
of the dock, where it hung suspended
I for a few moments before being pulled
back to safety.
Two hats were blown out to sea,
one of them from the head of an of
ficer of the steamer. It is said some
i choice oaths were heard when that
-occurred. However, it was the kind
of weather which would make anyone
cuss. And to lose a hat in a blow
like yesterday’s was a catastrophe.
Regular meeting of the City Coun
cil tonight.
A special telephone was installed in
the S. A. C. hall during the College
Sewarard game for the purpose of im
mediately relaying the plays to An
chorage and Fairbanks. “Billy”
Shellhorn was the operator.
Due to lack of space in today’s issue
of the Gateway the southbound list
of passengers on the S. S. Alameda,
which departed yesterday, will be pub
lished tomorrow.
