BASEBALL BOYS TO
GIVE JITNEY DANCE

For the purpose Of raising funds
for the support of the baseball team,
the Juneau Fire Department will
give two jitney dances in A. 3 Hall.
The first will take place Thursday
evening of this week and the sec
ond q week from Thursday.
The high cost of living has not
passed up the great National game,
and all kinds of baseball supplies
cost considerably more today than
ever before. For example, the old
ar-and-a-quarter" is now no
more. Two dollars straight is the
price of a baseball this year. The
fire boys have no money in the
treasury for financing their team.
but they expect to realize a tidy
sum from the proceeds of the dances
that will put them on their feet
for the season
f. J. Dyer has promised to fur
nish the crowds with new thrills
in the latest dance music.
