BORDEN MARATHON RACE.
promptly
nomine April 16th.
r: r?0 the Borden Mara
s started over the 26
mile course, with eigth entries eager
to take their alloted place at the
starting point.
This is an annual race conducted
by the Nome Kennel Club and the
prizes are those presented by John
Borden of Chicago, an enthusiastic
sportsman and dog fancier. Due to
Mr. Borden this race is kept up each
year and hotly contested. The big
prize of the Marathon is a handsome
cup which must be won by the same j
entry three times but not in sue-1
cession. The winner of each race j
also receives a cup independent of
the main prize.
The race started from Barracke
Square and was run to Cape Nome
and return, a distance of 26 miles:
and 383 yards.
This particular race developed j
some very adverse conditions in that j
the fair weather developed into a '
howling blizzard, with the wind :
blowing hard from the west and a j
temperature of eight below biting
into both men and dogs. Loose)
snow to the depth of five and six 1
inches added difficulty to the trail
and on the return trip the drivers J
had to lie down in the sleds, being
unable to face the storm. ' Notwith- j
standing the many trying features of l
the race the time of three hours and !
thirty five minutes was scheduled
with Wm. McGuire as the whiner.
J. Derosie got as. far as the milk
ranch and was unable to proceed, re
turning *o Nome without having
completed the course. John Mit-,
chell froze four of his dogs in the ,
contest.
Jack Gale, one of the top notch j
entries, after going nearly to Fort j
Davis returned 'to the Milk ranch,
a distance of about three miles,
deeming the storm too severe to
face. Upon reaching the milk ranch
Jack thought better of the situation
and turned about and proceeded to
and annexed fourth place.
The winners are Wm. McGuire
first; J. Gustofferson second; and
O. S. Weaver third.
Following are the entries and the
time made in the race;
W. C. McGuire. 3 hrs. 35 min.
J. Gustofferson 3 hrs. 36 min.
O. S. Weaver 3 hrs. 34 min.
Jack Gale 4 hrs. 21 min. *
R. B. Julian 5 hrs. 03.min.
C. Hecht 5 hrs. 14 min. •
J. Mitchell 5 hrs. 48 min.
J. Derosie returned, no run.

LECTURE DELIVERED
AT PIONEER IGLOO
WELL ATTENDED
On Wednesday evening Superin
tendent Thomas Collins of the Nome
Public School delivered a lecture in
the Pioneer Igloo. This lecture
was free to Pioneers and the public
and the .lecture room was filled with
an interested-’audience.
Robert James, prestdetn of the
Pioneers of Alaska, introduced the
speaker and stated that by a unani
mous vote of the Igloo Mr. Collins
had been invited to speak before
them, stating further that Mr. Col
linn was speaking gratuitously.
The subject of the lecture was
Esperanza, meaning Hope, and was
a talk on the South American state
of Venezuela, a country which the
speaker had visited in 1920, while
on a trip gathering material for his
thesis.
His descriptions apd deductions
were much appreciated and enjoyed
by his audience and comment was
made upon the fact ^hat it seemed
all too short. Mr. Collins spoke
but 45 minutes deeming it wise not
to overstep his time, feeling it bet
ter to be too brief rather thaYi too
verbose.
