does. Fred is the boy that we
used .to know gt . the Sitka
Training School' as “little
Andrew.” He is not little any
more which is pefhaps a rea
son why he can sell the FISH
ERMAN.
.... . _Brotherhood
The spirit of real Brother
hood is making great progress
among the natives of Hoonah.
The Sitka A. N. B. basketball
team defeated the Hoonah A.
N. B. team by the score of
30- 16. Then the Hoonah School
Team defeated Sitka 22-19;
then Sitka A. N. B. defeated
the famous Hoonah City Team
31- 27. To show the fine feeling
between the people and to help
the Sitka boys to meet their
expenses, all the gate receipts
were turned over to the Sitka
team, except the famous V.
I. S. City Team.
Yakutat
Yakutat has the hardest place
of all situated as it is away
from all other towns. Still they
have their fun right among
themselves and wait patiently
for some ship to come in. At
last the Unalga came to Yaku
tat and the sailor boys under
stand now just how Mayor J.
J. Conners of Juneau feels
whenever anybody says “Yaku
tat” for the sailor boys were
defeated in basketball by the
Alaska Native Brotherhood
team the score being 27-16. All
of this ocurred on February
15th. Something went wrong
with the wireless and so we
are not able to print the names
of all the heroes in this his
toric action.
A New Brother
We are glad to report that
a new brother has joined our
ranks recently. The A. N. B.
is certainly going ahead altho
the motives sortie have for
“jinin” are mighty queer. In
this case, we will let the Bro
ther? from Juneau tell his own
story: “Dear Uncle; Just a
word I want to say in regard
to Mr. Wm. L. Paul. From
what I have heard, what people
were saying, how you people
look to him, over there at Sit
ka as a big man. You know the
experience I had among the
white people, as I start to as
sociate with the Government
officials, ever since I was a
young man. It gives [me a
little idea to know a little bit.
I know it doesn’ sound very
good when a person speaks be
hind another. But case like this
I could not help it, I thought
this was only chance that I
have to be one of the members
of the Brotherhood, which I
am now, since last Monday
meeting, so that I will be able
to speak about a few things,
which I have known about the
man, whenever I have a chance
to visit the Brotherhood con
vention. I think this is about
all. Sending my best regards
to Mrs.-. This is about all
for this time.” (Signed) Jack
Williams.
(Editor’s note; we hope Jack
will meet at Klukwan about
November 10th. next and tell
what he has learned about “that
man.” But why wait till next
November, Jack.)
