OF THI GAME
DOES GREAT WORK FOR MO-
HAWK IN GAME WITH POR-
TAGE LAKE LAST NIGHT.
MOHAWK WINS.

BY defeating the Portage Lake
hockey team last night at the Glacia-
dom by the score of TO /, the Mo-
hawk team took the second of a Sc
ries OF four games that are being
played TO determine the champion
ship of the copper country. The ice
was almost perfect, and there was not
a dull moment throughout the match.
Mohawk was strengthened for this
game by the services of Gray and Bate
man, two of Calumet's star players.
Gray held down the goal position, and
Bateman played at cover point, until
Chaput, the rover. was injured, when
he went in at rover Chaput playing
Bateman's position. This occurred a
few minutes after the second half
had started.
From the moment that Chaput
played on the defense the game un-
derwent a complete change Bateman
worked up good combinations with
Uksila and the other two forwards OF
the Mohawk seven that resulted in
scores, and completely upset the call
culations of the visiting seven.
During the latter stages of the game
Mohawk completely rushed the visit
ors off their feet Shots were rained
on Haug in goal, that only Haug could
stop. At that four scores got past
him.
There was no scoring at all in the
a.. AnI %
period had gone twelve minutes before
the first shot went true. Ii came from
the stick of Stroud, who scored from a
scrimmage in front of the Mohawk
net. Three minutes later, ST. George
passed the puck over to Bateman, and
Murray evened up with a splendid
shot. Closely following this score
Hogan scored the second for Mohawk
from a rebound of Uksila's shot, off
Haug's stick Chaput scored the third
goal for Mohawk from a lift almost
the full length of the ice. Haug hav-
ing no chance to stop IT, Two minutes
before the game ended, Bateman
scored his fourth goal making No. A.
This was all the scoring and Mohawk
won one of the fastest games ever
played on local ice.
Although both teams have now won
one game each, Portage Lake still
leads, having scored more goals than
Mohawk. The first game OF the series
played at Houghton resulted i'm a vic
tory for Portage Lake by the score
of 6 to 1. The goal standings of the
teams now are:-Portage Lake, Z;
Mohawk, 5.
There was large crowd present
from Keweenaw county towns as well
as Calumet and the Portage Lake dis
trict. Cooney Shields of Houghton,
refereed in his usual excellent manner.
The game was a fairly clean one, and
was played in the best of spirit Two
more games are to be played, at
Houghton and Mohawk respectively,
before the series ends.

LEHTo VERSUS DEMETRAL.
Said Match Will Be Held in Calumet
on Feb. 10.

According to present plans, Karl
Lehto. the famous wrestling Finn of
this city, will meet william Demetral
of Chicago at Calumet. Feb. Is, says
the Duluth Herald. Demetral is one
of the best known wrestlers i'm the
country today and is also the claim
ant of the Greek championship of the
country.
Demetral is nearer the size of the
young Finnish champion and the con-
test should be one of the prettiest in
the Northwest. The promoters OF
Calumet have been clamoring for the
appearance of Lehto UP there all
through the present season, and now
it seems that they have made a very
good match.
While the arrangements for the
Lehto-Demetral match have not been
completed as yet, II looks as If the
Firms manager will close arrange
ments during the present week
Doc" Reid. well known to sport low
crs of this city, is at the present time
handling the affairs of Demetral.

THE UNPAID FEES
SECRETARY WEsTERMAN SENDS
OUT APPEAL TO MEMBERS so
GOOD REPORT CAN
BE MADE.

G. ID. Westerman, secretary OF the
Y. NJ. c. A. is endeavoring TO make
the annual. report of the local associa-
ton, which will be published on or
about April 30, the close of the fiscal
year, the best If possible, the asso-
citation has ever issued. To this end,
he is sending out a circular letter to
members, which is self-explanatory.
and goes into detail concerning the
effort he is making. II follows:-
Dear Friend and Member
our Association year ends April 80,
that time our annual report is issued.
BY this we determine our standing,
financially and otherwise. BY this we
may compare ourselves with ourselves
of previous years. and with the other
associations in the state and nation.
Upon this also our financial commit
tee bases its estimates for the ensuing
year. The Importance then of being
in good condition on April 80 is clear.
But this desirable condition cannot
be secured by waiting until the dawn
Of the both for action. In fact, we
have been preparing for this since the
first of last May. but by giving special
thought to this during the three
months ahead of us, the good report
we desire can be the more surely
made.
one OF the matters needing this adj
vanced attention is that the receipts
from our membership fees, gymnasium
fees. etc. are not coming up to the
budget estimate and also that on our
books the total unpaid balance of
these items amounts TO $3.50, which
if paid would provide for the budget
requirements.
| enclose a statement of the amount
of your account as we now have IL.
While it may not be possible for you
to get this in on the receipt of this
letter, yet l am sure that your interest
in the Associations welfare will lead
you TO make preparation to take care
of il by April surely and as much
sooner as possible.
This will be of great help in making
the desired condition on April 30th
possible and will be greatly appreciat-
ed by the finance committee of the
Board of Directors. upon the MEM
bers of Directors the burden of this
part of the Association enterprise
falls.
With thanks in advance for this
l am,
Yours sincerely,
G.. ID. Westerman.
Gen'l Sec'y.
