When you are sick it’s CAKE
you want.
As foulers the members of the
young ladies City basketball team are
some chickens, making 17 in yester
day afternoon’s game that they fin
ally won over the commission by 14 to
11.
At half time the score was 10 to 3
in favor of the City who apparently
had the game their own way. They
scored four baskets from the court in 1
this half but only one in the second
half while the conditions were just
reversed with their opponents, who 1
caged one goal in the first and three j
in the second half. Frequent fouls !
by the City gave Lockhart a great j
opportunity to again toss her team to j
victory but she was off in her aim i
and virtually lost the game. The Ti-1
tian-haired captain shot only four out j
of 17 baskets from the foul line but on
the floor played her usually fast,
clever game, making one field basket
and assisting in two others.
Denton played for the Commission
owing to the indisposition of Kubach.
The game was much faster than the
score indicates and started off by a
foul by Maltby which Lockhart mis
sed. B. Polley scored one from foul
line and Lockhart missed. Lockhart
made free basket, making the score
even. Albertson recovered from cen
ter of court and passed to Blye who
smothered a basket. Polley scored
from scratch line. Fitzgerald to Den
ton to Parks scored for the Commis
sion. Lockhart missed free try. Blye
to Walsh scored from court and Walsh
to Albertson on the very next play du
plicated. City had it all their own
way and the combination of Maltby to
Albertson to Blye scored the final
count of the first half that ended City
10, Commission 3. j
The tables were reversed in the sec
ond half, with the Commission play
ing the stronger game. For the City
Walsh went in at center and Byles to
forward. Commission, Lockhart to
center and Parks forward. The half
was hotly contested and the play rath
er rough in spots, with the City being
the chief offenders, making 13 fouls,
of which Lockhart counted on but two.
Commission made three baskets from ,
field in this half in the following man
ner. From bounds Lockhart passed to
Parks who shot a basket. Parks to
Lockhart to Rogers through the field
scored again and Lockhart unassisted
w-ith ten seconds to play caged a pret
ty goal. B. Polley made two out of
five free baskets, and Walsh made
the spectacular play of the game
when she cleverly checked Parks and
recovered, passed to Blye who in re
turn passed to Walsh who caged a
difficult goal.
Teams lined up as follows:
City A. E. C. i
Albertson .R. F. Denton I
Walsh .L. F. Lockhart
Byles .C. Parks
Maltby.R. G...... Fitzgerald
Polley .L. G. Rogers
Basket from field, Parks 2, Lockhart

The Sherwinites again demonstrat
ed their superiority by defeating the!
Veachers on the local basketball court
yesterday afternoon by the score of 20
to 12.
The first hafl ended with, the i
Veachers one point to the good, but
their opponents came back in the last
20 minutes and scored almost at will,
completely outplaying the Veachers at
every stage of the game.
Captain Veach was again off on his
shots and missed 12 out of his free
tries from the foul line. Nor was
Henkle’s average up to standard and
he caged but 2 out of 8.
From the first toss up Knutson re
covered and passed to Engle who
caged a goal from the field. Henkle
missed on Leahy’s foul and Veach
duplicated when Engle was penalized.
Powrie passed to Trachsel who scored
from the field. Veach made made one
on Sherwin’s foul, but missed when
Nich was chalked up with an error by
aggression. Henkle fouled and Veach
missed and missed again when Sher
win fouled.
The going was rough at this stage
and Trachsel came out of a scrimmage
with the ball which he immediately
passed to Powrie who delivered as per
schedule.
Henkle came back and caged a pret
ty goal, but missed the chance to even
the score on the next play when he
missed on free try.
Half ended Veach 5; Sherwin 4.
The Veachers started the second
half with a rush and scored on the
first few plays by the passing of
Veach to Trachsel who caged a beau
ty from the side. Veach missed two
free tries in succession, but shot from
two points on the next play after re
ceiving the ball from Henning who
had replaced Leahy. Their spurt,
however, ended here as they made only
one more field basket while the Sher
wins came from behind with a rush
and a slam and a bang that could not
be turned or denied. Sherwin recov
ered and passed to Knut who scored.
On double foul both Henkle and
Veach missed. Nich decided about
this time that he wasn’t covering
enough territory and came across the
court to recover the ball which he
cleverly passed to Knut who shot from
a difficult angle. Veache missed free
try and Henkle counted one for his
side. Gubert shooting for Veach
missed. Sherwin and Engle both got
credit for field baskets on next few
plays. Veach missed two free tires
and Nich to Henkle scored two points.
Henkle missed and scored on two free
tries from foul line. Veach made free
basket and Henkle missed on double
foul. The team work of Powrie and
Veach scored from the field, Veach
getting the credit. Veach missed free
try and Veach and Henkle both missed
on double foul. Knut pulled a regular
Knutson play when he recovered from
the toss up and by clever floor work
passed the opposing statues for an
easy basket. The Veachers applaud
ed.* Engle also got a raise when he,
unassisted, duplicated Knut’s clever
stunt.
Veach missed free try. Nich again
dived into the mass of wriggling
calves and biceps and came up smiling
and with the sphere which he immedi
ately shot to Henkle who was calmly
waiting, unprotected, immediately un
der the basket. Henkle pyt her in.
Henkle and Veach both failed to hit
the bull’s eye from the red line and
with the ball in possession of the Sher
win painters who cover the world and
major part of the local basket ball
court the game ended. Sherwin 20;
Veach 12.
the game was ragged and rough
and was featured by absence of team
work and clever plays.
The teams lined up as follows:
Sherwin Veach
Engle. R. F. Leahy-Henning
Henkle. L. F.Trachsel
Sherwin. C.Veach
Knutson.R. G.Powrie

MULE IS SIX AND HORSE IS
ONE AT THE BATTLE FRONTS
LONDON, Feb. 23.—A mule is
worth at least six horses, says a Brit
ish brigadier, and in this he confirms
the findings of the recent border mob
ilization. In the bitter Somme opera
tions, exactly six horses succumbed to
every mule. The mule is self-suffi
cient, nerveless and wise. A horse
bogged down in a shell hole will strug
gle until he dies, actually of a broken
heart; a mule will try once, and then
philosophically will wait for aid. In a
veterinary hospital one sees hundred
of horses and perhaps one mule. The
horses actually can and do die of ner
vousness and worry, engendered by
the crush and turmoil on crowded
roads, perhaps under fire. The mule
will nonchalantly flap his ears, lay in
to the collar and do his bit without
bothering his head over anything.

THE SKII RACE
One of the most interesting sport
ing events of the winter was the skii
race, pulled off by a number of the
adherents of the sport in Anchorage
yesterday afternoon. The race was
closely contested from the start and
the winner of last Sunday’s contest,
John Aho, again came in ahead by the
narrow margin of 24 seconds. The
time made for the distance, 10 miles,
under existing conditions, was re
markably good.
A purse of $100, divided into four
prizes, had been hung up for the event,
as follows: Fifty dollars for first;
$110, second; $15, third; and $5, fourth.
The winners and their time follow:
John Aho, No. 6, first, 57 minutes 25
seconds; Lee Sundell, No. 10, second,
57 minutes, 4!) seconds; H. Lund, No.
9, third, 58 minutes, 43 seconds; T.
Hennington, No. 8, fourth, 60 min
utes, 31 seconds.
Harry Challstorp, W. Nastrom and
Swan Swanson acted as judges and
timekeepers.
The Recreation bowling alley, from
which the race started and finished,
acted as stakeholder for considerable
money, as the enthusiastic support
ers were quite willing to back the
various favorites.
A banquet was given at the Oyster
Grotto last evening for the contestants
and members of the committee having
the race in charge, at which 21 were
seated. The prizes were distributed
and the party was an enjoyable af
fair. The committee wishes to thank
the business men and others who sub
scribed for the purse and otherwise
made the race possible. The skii
jumping contest was postponed indef
initely owing to the fact that the jump
prepared was only 40 feet and was
considered too short to make the
contest interesting. Fourth avenue
was packed yesterday afternoon be
tween Eh and E street and AtMMted
spectators scattered all along the
course. The skii races are causing so
much excitement and have aroused so
much enthusiasm that another race
will undoubtedly be arranged for
next Sunday and possibly a short dog
team race.
The committee in charge of yester
day’s successful affair deserves all
credit for the sportsmanlike manner
in which it was carried out.
