Senior Basket Ball Team Organized to Compete For Honors on. Cas-
 tineau Channel

The Thane Athletic Club which has been taking leading part in athletic matters on Gastineau Channel since Its formation some months ago, has now perfected arrangements for put ing senior basketball team in the field. With the formation of this team people of channel points will be assured of seeing some senior games at least as the Douglas Fire Department already has a team formed and ready to play.
 If a senior team could be organized in Juneau a three cornered league could be formed that could play many games this winter in the differ. ent towns.
 The publicity. manager of the newly organized Thane team has the follow ing to say about his men,
 When it became apparent this fall that basketball would resume it's place in the hearts of the channel athletic fans, the Thane Athletic Club determined to place a team in the field if possible. The ardent en- thusiasm displayed by the club mem bers in general to this proposition. re- vived the dormant spirit of the bas- ket shooters, who being given hearty financial support by the club com mittee. have now pledged themselves to take on all corners during the season which has been tentatively decided upon.
 Martin Jorgensen has been select ed by the club committee to look after their interests, acting in the capacity of club manager. J. Smar. den was elected by the team as team manager. Smarden has had wide experience in basketball, having played with Mt Angels College of Portland the three years that they held the championship of their class. H. R. Herner of Mt Royal College and Juneau High School fame was elected captain and will be assisted in his duties by A. Olson, an old Nome star Capt. Herner hopes to pilot as successful team this year as he did in 1914 when Juneau Higa held the championship of Southeast ern Alaska. Many of the old timers in the game are turning out regular ly. Carlson of o. A. C.. who also played 8 stellar role in the old A. B. team. Sabin and Hendrickson. old J.. H. s. men, Nelson of Douglas and Brebner of Portland.
 There are half dozen other men who are busily working off surplus weight and these dark horses will make it quite probable that Thane will carry two full teams of basket shooters with them at all the com petitions"
