The basketball team captained by
Roy Veach won over Sherwin’s team
yesterday afternoon by the score of
28 to 19. Veach won the toss and
chose the north basket to defend.
Powrie shot the first basket in the
first few minutes of play and the team
was never headed nor in danger from
then on to the end of the game. Veach
milsed on free try. Captain Sherwin
broke away for a score but over shot,
the ball landing among the gallery
gods. Powrie with the aid of Leahy
and Trachsel smothered another bas
ket. Henkle scored the first points
for his team by a great overhand bas
ket after receiving the ball from Sher
win on a clever pass. Sherwin missed
two easy chances to count. Powrie
missed his shot, but Veach recovered
and caged a goal. Veach missed free
try, but again recovered and scored a
field basket. Veach counted one from
the foul line and on the next play stole
away down the court for two more
points. Henkle scored on free try and
Veach missed his chance.
Henkle made free basket on foul.
From the boundary line Gubert passed
to Veach who shot a field basket.
Veach to Gubert scored the final bas
ket in the first half that ended Veach
15, Sherwin 4.
Henning went in for Leahy at the
beginning of the second half and
Sherwin switched Knutson from for
ward to guard and Engle to the for
ward position.
The Veachers again started off with
a rush and Veach caged a goal after
receiving the ball from Gubert. En
gle, Sherwin and Henkle all missed
easy baskets. Veach made the feature
play of the game when he caught the
ball from Knutson, who passed from
bounds, and shot a perfect basket from
a long distance. Sherwin to Knutson
to Engle scored from the field Trach
sel passed to Henning from bounds
and Henning caged a goal. Powrie
shot a difficult basket after clever
passing by Henning and Gubert.
Knutson commenced to get in the
game and scored after receiving the
ball from Sherwin. Both teams were
playing hard and the next few plays
all resulted in baskets. Powrie and
Veach pulled off a great play with
Veach shooting the basket. Nicholls
passed to Sherwin who counted. Hen
ning to Veach scored and Sherwin to
Knuson scored on the next play. Hen
kle made free try and missed on the
next attempt while Veach scored on
double foul. Henkle made a spectac
ular one-hand shot after Engle had
missed. Sherwin to Henkle scored
again and the Sherwinites were com
ing from behind. Nicholls to Knut
son smothered a basket from the field
and the half ended with the score
Veach 28, Sherwin 19.
A large crowd witnessed the game
played by the two picked teams. From
the fact that they have had no chance
to practice neither side put up any
team work and the game was featured
by individual playing.
The same teams play again tomor
row night.
The teams lined up as follows:

afternoon by two points. Dalton
scored the first points by a field bas
ket and Lockhart evened the score by
two baskets from the foul line. Parks
caged a goal and at half time the
score was Commission 4, Cleaners 2.
The spectators loudly cheered as the
Last Tuesday saw the pitiful end of
a shattered romance in which youth’s
young dream was rudely awakened
and another modem Michaevelli ex
posed in his true colors of falsehood
and deceit. It was a triangular af
fair in which the villain played the
important part and with the help of
the vampire enticed the heroine and
foolish maiden on the fair road to in
famy. The affair had its conception
in Anchorage and was the culmination
of a satanic brain; the final chapter is
laid at Rainbow creek, where the long
arm of the moral law stopped the mad
flight into the great unknown. The
villain was advised to continue his
journey, with instructions not to re
turn to Anchorage; the heroine came
back over the beaten path of misspent
confidence, a sadder but wiser woman,
to meet the rebuffs and rebukes of her
sisters, and find solace and consolation
in the hypocritical smiles of the false
friend.
The entire affair has been publicly
aired and the concensus of opinion is
that the lure of mythical wealth that
brings pomp and plumes was directly
responsible for the maiden to repeat in
the language of Ruth, “Whither thou
goest I will go,” even though it be to
the fabled island, famous in fiction as
containing tons upon tons of commer
cial fertilizer worth fabulous sums. To
be real romantic and have the proper
settings, this island should have been
located in the South seas, the land of
the lotus eater, where luxuriant flow
ers abound, watered by the fountain of
perpetual youth; the land of palms
and ukuleles where they could have
sat on silken cushions under the bam
boo oree while he told of the grand
eurs and conquests of an unconquered i
line (not Armour’s Best) and where!
the soft, balmy breeze of the summer
seas would tint her fair cheeks with
the first blush of shame and they
could look out on the waters of a
placid bay and see the graceful lines
of “my private yacht.” But no, he
had to stick this Jules Verne island off
the storm-beaten, rock-ribbed coasts
of cold, cruel Alaska. Admitting the
fertilizer, but the island does not ap
pear under his name on the mariner’s
chart and the yacht and other similar
fairy tales were the fruits of a Regen
erate mind.
The party left Anchorage, not as a
modern Lochinvar on a prancing steed
with gaudy coverings; neither as
Quixote on an ass, nor with a team of
pedigreed racing malamutes, which
would have been the ideal Alaskan’s
way and would certainly have given
more tone to the exodus. However,
he did have a train of three swarthy
Bohunk retainers, but it is hardly fair
in the day of gallants and the renew
al of knighthood that the susceptible
maiden should have been forced to
vulgarly mush over the trail covered
with snow. There is nothing particu
larly romantic about mushing over
Alaska trails, but then there was the
goal of her dreams, as painted by the
villain, to be attained in the end. The
dream only awaiting the deft touch of
a mistress hand and it would burst
forth in a shower of many-colored
i silks and satins, willowy plumes and
j flashing jewelry; it would bring opu
! lence and this meant power and posi
i tion and the fulfillment of the childish
| fancies.
As is so often the case, the bubble
; burst, the dream was shattered, and
! Anchorage relieved of a moral leper.

Second half started off with a rush
and after shooting at the wrong bas
ket the Cleaners carried the ball d< wn
the court where Dalton made the shot
that evened the score.
Lockhart made free try. Murry
went through the field for a basket
and Lockhart made free basket and
again evened the count. Dalton put
the game away by caging a pretty
goal just before the whistle blew end

Most of our fair women have drifted
away from cooking, but the Two Girls
still retain the old custom. Mother’s
cooking is the best. SSI
aroused and his rayings of wealth,
family connections and globe trotting
experiences were put down as ordin
ary and commonplace and listened to
with boredom. It was only after learn
ing of his pretending to promoting a
beluga fishing industry and separating
some of the foreign element from
their hard earned money that the au
thorities were advised to look into his
actions. He was generally considered
a “nut" and consistently played the
part. Bank books showing deposits,
in his own hand-writing, of many
thousands, were a mere bagatelle and
he usually dealt in large figures, but
up to the time of the hegira had not
fooled any one in particular, except
perhaps his first wife, who, with two
small children, is anxiously awaiting
his return.
It is understood that he had previ
ously engaged the services of a go
between to play the part of the jealous
suitor but the acting was apparent
and superficial and the scheme died a
horning mainly through the influence
of the victim’s friends. Looking for
other hearts to break and other sus
ceptible minds he selected the heroine
of this story, whose life probably has
not all been a flowery bed of ease, and
too, she has evidently been denied
many of the requisites and surround
ings that go to make a woman happy
and contented. And then there is al
ways the psychological moment and he
was unquestionably discerning. She
is not to be blamed for her sacrifice of
a good name in the moment of ill-con
sidered action and her Anchorage
friends have covered her with the man
tle of charity and welcomed her re
turn with open arms. There is not a
breath of suspicion attached to the
case that has no significant bearing
other, possibly, than an infringement
on the great moral law of the land.
Perhaps it is well it happened in
this way and thus saved a more un
sophisticated maiden. The human dere
licts usually drift with the flotsam and
jetsam on the sea of life to the south
ern seas; the criminals flee to the
mountain fastnesses of Mexico, and
the turbulent countries of Central
America; the promoters go to the
moneyed marts of the effete east and
occasionally with the hardy pioneer,
endowed with brain and brawn, who
comes to Alaska to blaze the trail for
his progenitors, there creeps in a de
generate and a “nut.”
