STORE TEAM WINS
WHICH TIES LEADERS
?
TREADWELL, Mar. 3.?By a score
of 24 to 11, the Store team last night
trimmed up the Mexicans in one of the
fastest games of basketball played
this season, this leaves the Mexicans
tied with the machine shop boys, and
the general impression is that no fur
ther contests will take place to decide
the championship.
The game last evening followed
closely the contest between the Skag
way players and a Treadwell team, in
which the Skagway team lost by a
score of 4 to 20.
So coufldent were the Mexicans of
winning the game that they had pre
pared a jollification banquet to eat in
honor of their victory. They ate the
banquet minus the Jollification .
One of the leading fans, alter wit
nessing all the games, has picked
tho following all-tar team:
Thomas MacDonald?Forward.
Wm. Barquist?Forward.
Jack Johnson?Center.
Fred Forter?Guard.
Ed. Beals?Guard.

TREADWELL, Mar. 3.?Some care
less visitor to the Athletic training

able alarm for the safety of the build
ing. The burning mat was smothered
with water and dragged out of the
building. Aside from scorching the
floor, no serious damage was done.
