PLAY GAMES SHOD

Another opportunity of seeing a
first class basketball team in action
by the people of Seward is in the off
ing. The Fairbanks Exploration Co.,
proposes to send their stellar team
to the coast soon after the first of
February. The F. E. Co. team is the
one which recently made the College
team bite the dust.
The question of finances, and the
support by towns people for such a
series arises as well as the question
of opposition. It is hoped these mat
ters can be satisfactorily settled and
the visit be assured.
Among the members of the F. E. C.
team are such men as Shaw, former
ly with the College, the Gill brothers
who have been playing basketball in
Anchorage since they were knee high
to a grass hopper;Olson, one of the
best shots in the Fairbanks league.
A full lineup will be published later.
Never in the history of Alaska bas
ketball has Seward been favored
with the opportunity of entertaining
and seeing in action as many good
teams as this year.
PET MOOSE AT GURRY
JUMPS THRU WINDOW
The moose (one of them) at Cur
ry ranks number one among the wild
pets of the famou| railroad hotel
and is now so domesticated it is
sometimes a difficult proposition tc
keep him out of the hotel. He en
deavors to follow patrons into the
hotels where, it has become known
to him, he might be shipped a choice
bit of a handout once and awhile,
Being locked out one day he jumped
through a window. Naturally, he got
spanked.
