and his smaller brother, Edward, aged
8, do not know anything about the
work or even the existence of humane
societies. maintained to prevent suf-
fering among dumb animals. But
these two small boys during Wednes-
days sleet storm showed that their
hearts are right.
The two boys live at 1901 Washing
ton street, just south of the old mar
row, high arctled stone bridge that
spans the Shunganunga on Tenth
street. The sleet storp that formed
the advance of the present cold wave
coated the steep slopes of the bridge
with a CLASSY coat of ice, on which
horses and autos skidded and slipped.
Observing the troubles of the horses,
Bernard and Edward put on their
aps and mittens and loaded a tubful
of ashes into their toy wagon With a
smaa shovel borrowed from their
mothers coal bucket, they carefully
spread the ashes over the coating OF
ice on the bridge. It was cold WORK
and they were none too warmly clad,
but they stuck TO the job until IT was
done thoroly. A passing autoist
paused to ask the boys who told them
to put ashes on the ice
Nobody. we just did if so that the
horses wouhdn't slip and fall down.
Bernard answered

DOUGLAS AGAIN
DEFEATS KAYK|
IN CLOSE GAME
Wins Second Game 70 to 20
Faces Hardest Fight
in Wrangell Schedule.

The Douglas High Schools hoop
warriors last night again retained
The laurels won by last years cham
piCnahip squad by defeating for the
second time of the season the five of
the Ketchikan High School on the
Iatter's floor. The Islanders won
after a hard fight, downing Kayhi
by a score of 26 to 20.
Douglas is due in Wrangel to-
night where it will probably have
its hardest fight of the present sea-
sen up to this time. 1t is scheduled
to meet two strong teams, one repro
senting the Wrangell school and the
other from Metlakatla. Wrangell is
credited with a victory over Ket-
chikan, winning Is to 10 in a game
played about two weeks ago. Meta
katla, which was beaten carly in the
season by Kayhi. came back strong
and defeated Wrangell. Four or five
games will probably be played at
Wrangell in the tournament begin
ming this week.
Lack of suitable transportation,
it was announced by Supt. j. e.
LAM, prevented Juneau High from
being represented in the Wrangell
tournament. No boat, he said, was
available fer the boys to make the
trip 1t is hoped that the team will
be able to meet both Wrangell and
Ketchikan and probably Metlakatla
later in the season.

COACH BOILER NOT
OPTIMISTIC OVER
SEASONS OUTLOOK

PULLMAN, Wash. Dec. 27.-Al
though the same basketball team
that represented Washington State
College last season is available again
This year. Coach Fred e'Doe')
Boiler is by no means optimistic
over the seasons prospects. HIS
dependency is caused by the neces
sity for developing a center and for
wards-the weak berths on last
years team.
Boiler is further handicapped by
having very little material of real
varsity caliber available from last
years freshman squad. Eight letter
men from last years team are back
fighting for berths this year These
include Captain Harold Sorenson
Clarence Doomis, Ernest Burke, John
Friel, Victor Harrington. Leon Sears,
Lowell Schroeder and Carl McCarty
These letter men are augmented by
Burpee, kelso, Anderson, Chandler
McCurdy and Pickering from last
years freshman squad.
Burpee and McCarty appear to be
the most promising candidates for
center. Both are tau and rangy
ideally built for the pivot position
But neither possesses to a marked
degree the knack of shooting baskets
Burpee played center on the frosh
five last year McCarty played the
same position on occasion for the
varsity.
Friel appears to be the best of the
forward candidates. but Bohler is
considerably worried as to who will
be a suitable running mate for him
Hugo Schultz, star freshman for
ward last season, did not return to
school this year. Boiler had tenta.
lively selected Schultz for one for,
ward position and his failure to re-
turn has rather disrupted the Cougar
mentors plans. Kelso also is a
member Of last years freshman five
is a good shot, but he is handicapped
by size and weight.
