 Soon Be in Vogue

Although there were only a few of the prospective basket ball CT thusiasts of the city In attendance the meeting held yesterday after noon at Moose hall can be said to have been success from every standpoint In fact, according to the report of one of those most in terested, the meeting proved con- clusively that when interest in the sport is further aroused, there is no doubt but that several good teams of basket ball players will be developed. However, a little more boosting is necessary, and in order that it may be done the regular business of the meeting was post poned to another session, which is to be held at Moose hall TuesdaJ evening.
 teams will be included in the league The Fairbanks high schoool has al ready organized team, and are only waiting for some of the fra ternal organizations of the town to start their teams before issuing a challenge. It is expected that the Arctic Brott erhood, Moose and Eagles will each put a team in the field.
 Just to see how the idea wou d work out, Slim Packard, the in stigator of the basket ball move ment, organized two teams out of the material available at the meet ing yesterday afternoon. He states that he is very well pleased with the showing made. Those who played did rothing but pass the ball. as there are no baskets at Moose hall It is expected that all of the games played will be at the Auditorium.

Patter son returns to Brooks
 Postmaster T. H. Deal states that he has not yet advised with the de partment concerning the establish ment of a mail route. However he will probably do so this week. and if the department acts on Mir Deals advice, which it will probably do, an emergency service will be established for the present. which means that mail for the Tolo vana country will be sent from Fairbanks to Olnes on the train At Olnes it will be handled by the postmaster who will put all of his Tolovana mail in the same sack and it will then be sent to Brooks on the Ringseth stage, MT. Ringseth having already made an offer to cHGTy it. The service will probably start as soon as MT. Patterson has qualified as postmaster at Brook and established himself in suitable
