The College pass ing in contrast to the locals was far superior as was also their basket shooting. Seward made many at tempts at the hoop but failed to con- meet.
 In both games Patricia Ray, who is attending the College, played on the visitors lineup and put up an excel lent game, cool and heady. In last nights game Clara Manthey, one of the local stars, made her first appear ance and gave a good account of her self until she was forced to retire. She saved the team from a whitewash last night when she made the lone basket During both games the coach es kept changing the girls around, giving them all a chance to work un- der fire. With another year of prac- tice some formidable players will be developed.

ARCTIC BLASTS GREET
 ARRIVAL OF ALAMEDA
 FROM THE WESTWARD

Arriving in the face of young hur- ricane blowing down from the north, the s. s. Alameda returned to port yesterday morning at II o'clock from the Westward bringing 55 cabin pas sengers and 23 steerage from herring plants which closed last week in Tutka Bay and Halibut Cove. Follow ing the embarking Of local and passen- gers from the Interior, the steamer continued on it's way south an hour later.
 Westbound the Alameda dropped an- chor off Seldovia, but found all pas sengers gone, so proceeded on to Halibut Cove, arriving there Satur- day afternoon. From the cove the vessel went to Tutka Bay for the can- nery help and returned to the cove, where additional passengers boarded. At 10 o'clock Saturday night the ves- sel got under way for Seward, but off Cape Elizabeth ran into dirty blow. Everything had to be roped or nailed down for the. cargo began waltzing up the bulkheads.

SATURDAYS GAME

The w. A. C. girls basketball squad went down to defeat before the Alas ka College girls in the first game played Saturday night by the score of 10 to 4. The first half ended with Seward on the long end of the score, 40, but from the second quarter the College slowly ran up the score from zero to 10. The locals did not score once after this quarter.
 Roberta Mcintosh, star for the W. A. C., who made the only points for her home team, was the target for the visitors onslaught, and turnout the remainder of the game Bert" was smothered on every play. It did not take the College long to discover the danger point on the Seward team. Elsa Larson and Mary Mcconnell also played a snappy game, and they like wise came in for a portion of the attack.
 The showing of the local girls was cause for surprise for it was generally conceded they would lose by quite a large margin, judging from advance reports from the royal camp.
 Coach Abell of the College refereed both games.
