The Wrangell High School Bas- ketball team returned on the Alas ka from their trip to Gastineau channel. They failed to bring home the bacon, but nevertheless returned in the best of spirits with no apologies for the showing they made while away from home.
 At Juneau the Wrangell Five were defeated by a score of l5 to [. At Douglas the Island team won by a score of g to 6. MT. Mcclellan, the coach, in commenting on the trip said that he considered the con- test with Douglas the better of the two games played while away. The first half of the game at Doug las was marked by a very close de- fense by both teams, with very few shots at baskets. The score at the end of the first half was to 0 in favor of Douglas. In the second half several fouls were called, and first one team and then the other was ahead until near the end when Douglas players made several bas- kets, giving their team the victory. Tn this game the Wrangel boys did some clever passing, but failed to get any close shots.
 The Empire publishes the follow ing account of the game at Juneau:
 The Juneau High School five last night defeated Wrangell High 15 to :. in a very pretty game, marred somewhat by it's Toughness, but !n- teresting enough to keep house full of fans roaring most Of the 40 minutes of play. Wrangell held the locals almost to even terms for the first half but were unable to keep up through the final half the pace set by the locals.
 Connors' shooting and clever floor work in the final half gave the Hilltoppers their victory in the second half. Ellingen's shooting was under his usual standard, but with Garnick and F. Orme he divided honors in checking the visiting teams efforts at breaking up the local defense and in overcoming the defense of the visitors which, if any thing was slighly stiffer than the locals. "Fat" Orme had an off night particularly in his shooting, missing shot after shot that ordinarily he could have been counted on to la

Visitors Pass We'll

In passing the Wrangell team showed up to better advantage than Juneau but, except for the first quarter, it wasn't very successful in working loose from the local de- fense within the shooting zone. Its defense was like a rock wall at times but failed to hold at critical periods. Desmond, Wrangell cen ter, was undoubtedly the star of the team. He played a brilliant game on the floor and scored five out of the teams seven points.
 Wrangell started off like it was going to make a runaway game of it. Desmond caged one from scrim- mage in the first three minutes of play. Just before the end of the first quarter, Wheeler dropped long one through from difficult angle carrying the count to four to nothing where it stood at the end of the first ten minutes of play.
 Juneaus defense frightened up in the second quarter and Wrangell was held scoreless. Ellingen drop ped through two free throws for the Hilltoppers' first score. Connors looped long shot through the cage for the first Juneau goal from scrimmage and just before the half time whistle sounded. Ellingen worked free close to the basket and caged another. At half way mark, Juneau led by a score of 6 to 4.
 Juneau was never headed in the second half. In the third quarter Wrangell was held to a lone point, a free throw by Desmond Connors showed some of his oldtime form in this half. In the third quarter he caged two from the field and one on free throw. the score standing II to 5. He caged two more from scrimmage in the final quarter while Desmond dropped one through for Wrangell, making the final count | Is to '.

BONES BUDGET PLAN
 NOT FAVORED

The Alaska budget proposal
 D 41ooS IouI9AoD Gq 9psU Bone in his annual report does not meet with approval among the senators and representa- tives in the national capitol, ac- cording to a special dispatch to one of the Seattle newspap- CTS.
 The recommendation of the governor with respect to the budget proposal reads as fol- lows:
 "That annually hereafter all appropriations required for Alaska regardless of the de- partment or agency under which they are to be expend- ed, be combined and consoli- dated in an Alaskan Budget to be submitted to Congress through the Federal Bureau of the Budget, thus presenting Alaskan requirements under one heading, and obviating the necessity of appropriations by piece meal through depart mental budgets. It is believed that such procedure will be conducive to better under standing of the Territory's needs and simplify and facili- tate the work of Congress and it's committees"
 Representative Curry of Cali fornia, in a statement regard ing the proposal declared :. might result in the slashing of appropriations for Alaska to an unwarranted degree by making them conspicuous ob- iects for attack both before the budget officials and the two branches of Congress.
 Delegate Sutherland is also quoted as expressing doubt re- garding the wisdom of the pro- posed change.

1 To dance to music provided by an orchestra close to 2,OO0
 miles away was the novel ex- perience of those who attend
 ed the annual New Year ball of the Pioneers of Alaska at
 Pioneer Hall last week. To trip the light fantastic to mus ic from the air may be no great novelty to chose in more salub-
 rious clirnes but it certainly
 was a unique experience for
 many of the sourdough's of Hyder, many of whom had never before listened to one of those latest of mans invent
 ions. The feat was made poss- ible through the kindness of iJ.D. Littlepage, manager of the Riverside mine who loaned his loud speaker for the occas- ion. The music was provided by orchestra's in Oakland, Cal. and at ther points on the Pa cific coast. As the zephyr waited strains" did not contin- ue throughout the evening, ad ditional music was provided by the big phonograph: A good sized crowd enjoyed the entertainment which was dis tinguished by the usual atmos- phere of good-fellowship com mon to Pioneer gatherings. A da inty luncheon of cake, sand wiches and coffee was provid- ed by the Pioneer ladies and everyone enjoyed themselves to the limit until the New Year was several hours old.

PREMIER PLAYERS
 WIN MORE LAURELS

The Cabaret entertainment given by the Premier players at the Premier mine New Years eve proved one of the most novel and pleasing enter tainments in the camps hist ory and further enhanced the reputation of the players as
 entertainers par excellence.
 The entertainment was held
 in the big assembly hall, the
 larger part of which was fes- tooned off for dancing, with the remainder set with tables
 and chairs for the use of spec
 tators, in imitation of a caba-
 ret. The decorative effects
 were remarkably pretty and
 under the glow of myriad col
 ored lights presented a won
 derful sight.
 Handsome Christmas decorat-
 ions were everywhere and the
 hand painted menus were
 works of art. The lunch con- .sisting of turkey, ham and cheese sandwiches, fruit salad,
 lobster salad, ice cream and
 several kinds of punch, in ad- dition to tea, coffeee and CO., coa, was served during the evening". The cabaret perform ance comprised a number of very pleasing acts in which the various players displayed marked histrionic talent and won we'll merited applause from the large audience. Among the especially pleasing numbers were a duet by Mrs. Dr. Carson and Russell Carr, entitled "A Kiss in the Dark" !" in which Mrs. Carson appear ed as a fairy. A comedy duet Mrs. Carson and MT. Carr, "l Left the Door Open and Some body Else Walked h." and a fancy step dance by Mrs. Den ny Jackson and Wm. Assyltine.
 On the stroke of 12 o'clock, venerable Father Time, with his scythe and snowy beard ap- peared on the scene and with solemn mien circled the dance floor before passing from view. As he left, Little Buddy" Watson, in cupid array and typifying the New Year, ap- peared on the floor, presenting a pretty and winsome picture. The quaint presentment was greeted with spontaneous ap- plause by the audience. After that it was Ion with the dance, let joy be unconfined" and every one had a splendid time until 4 a. m., with the carnival spirit dominant throughout. Splendid dance music as we'll as the accompaniments for the various acts was provided by the talented Premier orchestra. Old timers who attended pay the Premier entertainers pretty compliment by designat- ing the entertainment as one of the most enjoyable events they have ever seen in the North.
