Walsh ABOUT TO
BECOME A MAGNATE
BY II. C. HAMILTON.
UnIted Press Staff Corresponden

a
NEW YORK, Feb. Ed Walsh,
former pitching star Of the Chicago
White Sox is giving serious consider
alton to the proposition OF becoming
a baseball magnate. He Is said TO
have been approached with induce
ments to take over the Des Moines
club OF the Western League. now own
ed by Frank Isbell. another former
member of the White Sox.
OF course, no one doubts who is the
guiding hand In the deal which would
send Walsh to Des Moines. The
whole thing would be engineered by
Charles Comiskey. who has long been
one Of the chief figures in the Western
League Isbell himself maintained
for a long time an alliance with the
Old Roman.
Isbell, It is said, wants to devote all
his time to the management and own
ership Of the former Wichita Club,
now transferred TO Colorado Springs.
Walsh probably would be popular in
Des Moines. He was a great pitcher,
often a visitor to Des MOines with the
White Sox and often praised there
Preparations have been made for
some time to land Walsh in a favor
able community.
The deal also would be considered
a good step for Walsh. The Des
Moines Club is one OF the few in the
ancient Western League where money
has not oozed out in huge gobs in
stead Of coming back the same way.
Isbell won a pennant a few years ago,
and he had following to boast when
he did It. He has developed some
good bali players, and has sold them
for good prices.
George Mogridge, Paul Mauser and
Lefty Thomas, three pitchers, are all
products Of the Des Moines Club. II
Walsh. with the pitching skill he is
known to possess, could develop a few
of these, and could keep the popular
ity sign working on the turnstile as
Isbell did, he would be well fixed.
Walsh deserves something He was
one of the grandest pitchers that ever
stepped on a slab. A finish as the
owner and manager of a Western
League Club-or any minor league
club-snould be just what he desires.

WORK ON PHONE LINE
is NOW PROGRESSING

The work of digging trenches for
the underground telephone wires of
che new telephone system to be in
stalled by the Alaskan Engineering
commission, was started during the
week and is proceeding rapidly, con-
sidering the fact that the ground is
crusted with frost and must be
thawed in advance of the eXcava
ton. Supt. B. E. Holifield, Of the
electrical department of the COM
mission, states that underground
wires will be laid throughout the
business district and that the system
when finally installed, will up-to-
date in every respect, with modern
phones and a central station housed
in a building erected especially to
accommodate the new switch board
and general Office equipment. Work
on the building was started some
time ago and it will be ready for
occupancy by the time the linemen
are prepared to install the phones.

STAGES MOVING REGULARLY

Although there is not yet snow
enough to make good sleighing, two
stages are making regular trips be-

dog teams are becoming more num-
eraus daily, many of them enroute
to various parts of the district.
The first dog team to make the trip
from Fairbanks was driven into
town early this week by Billy But
Ter, with Attorney Cecil H. Clegg
as a passenger. They made the
run down in two days, travelling by
way of the Ohio roadhouse.
The two horse rigs operating be-
tween the two towns are the Roland
mail stage and the Thelin stage.
Their schedules are arranged in
such a manner as to give the public
a splendid service. And when the
trails improve sufficiently, the ser
vice will be still further improved
by reducing the time to one day be-
tween the two points

HALLOWEEN PARTY
ENJOYED BY MANY

The Halloween masquerade, which

enjoyable affairs held in Nenana
and very largely attended. There
a great number of new and some
very pretty costumes in evidence,
but the majority apparently cos
tuned with a view to enjoying the
dance rather than prize winning.
The floor was filled with dancers
from the start of the grand march
until an early hour in the morning,
and the balcony and boxes were
crowded with spectators during the
greater part of the evening.

SCHOOL DANCE
GREAT SUCCESS

The housewarming and dance, for
the benefit of the Nenana Public
school, which is in progress as the
News goes to press, is most graft
flying success in every respect, the
attendance being exceptionally large
and the dance being a most enjoy
able affair, with good music, new
floor and a delightful luncheon.
Nearly 500 tickets were sold,
which means that very substantial
sum has been realized for the pur
chase of needed equipment for the
school.
The housewarming has given the
people of Nenana an opportunity to
inspect the new school, which was
constructed under the direction of
Townsite Manager F. S Ryus, and
the many complimentary remarks
heard indicate that the public is
well pleased with the attractive new
structure, which was built with
liberal portion of the money refund
ed from the sale Of lots.
