FORT YUKON HAS
 MONEY SHORTAGE

There is no exchange on Canadian currency at Fort Yukon. AS a matter of fact, Canadian money IS about the only kind in the pig Yukon River community--or rath- CT, was the only kind until the ar rival there recently of Pilot Frank Dorbandt Wells Erwin and Herb Larison. They had a considerable quantity of United States currency with them, for the purchase of furS and payment of expenses along the way, and their presence at Fort Yu- kon had the effect of relieving the monetary situation very materially, reports the Anchorage Times.
 Five natives died at the Fort Yukon hospital during the stay of the visitors there, all of them be- ing victims of tuberculosis.
 Speaking of fur conditions in the Kotzebue district, Pilot Dorbandt says that all of the foxes, except the lame and halt, have migrated to other parts in quest of food, the depth of snow having made it i'm possible for the animals to obtain field mice, which have dug in so deeply as to be safe from attack. The Kotzebue is noted for it's fine foxes but this winter the district is almost a blank because of the migration.

QU|N I
EVENS SERIES

Dunbar High School tossers
evened the count with Armstrong
Tech for the colored high school
court title by defeating the latter
by a score of II to 16 yesterday
A third contest, to decide the
championship, will be played at
an early date.
Having lost to Tech in the open
ing game of the series, the Poets
went into the contest to win and
did win. MinnS, four-letter man
and center on the Dunbar team,
was a sensation of the afternoon.
His floor play and accurate toss
ing, which in almost every in
stance netted a field goal, brought
him many hands from the 1900
spectators present. The contest at
half time stood 10-all.
In the final half both teams
played bang-up game, but a free
toss gave Dunbar the edge and
the game. Cardozo High School
was beaten by both the Poets and
Tech early in the season and,
therefore, eliminated from the title
series.

FINALLY WIN
LONG-SOUGHT
PIN HONORS
By GINO SINH

Many a hard-working duckpin-
ner has gained high honors,
which have eluded him for years,
during the current campaign,
thanks to an unprecedented num-
Der of sweepstakes and special
events. Each scored in a thrilling
way.
First it was Ollie Pacini who
bursted into the championship
class by winning the Washington
Times Dixie Sweepstakes, culmi-
mating many years of arduouS
trying in major competition.
For five years Pacini had been
q regular entry in every impor-
tant duckpin event, and time and
again he finished near the top,
but always someone would nose
In ahead of him. He did a little
noSing out on his own accord last
November when he beat Ray
Barnes, of Baltimore, by four pins,
for the Dixie title.
DAILY Comes Through
Then Carroll DAILY, another
stand-out, but lucklesS, contender
for major honors for a decade or
more, came through in as spec
tacular manner as Pacini to place
first in the Evening Star tourna-
ment.
The Howard Campbell Sweep
stakes gave Tony Santini, for three
years an entry in the event, his
chance. He snatched that golden
diadem right off the brow Of Ed
Blakeney in as sensational a finish
as is registered in the duckpin
books of mighty deeds. Santini,
figured out of the picture follow
ing a wretched opening set, shot a
concluding set which still has the
fans gibbering.
Yesterday he added the George
Washington Sweepstakes title to
prove his true class.
Then Joe Pricci stepped in to
grab the Maryland Sweepstakes
Pricci's feat. stood out in that just
a few minutes prior to rolling his
635 winning set he had rolled a
poor 497 in the Maryland Virginia
Sweepstakes.
Wolfe Achieves Aim
At Hagerstown Saturday Perce
Wolfe, whose name has appeared
in every major test around these
parts for several years, finally
ended his long vigil by capturing
the Cumberland Valley Sweep
stakes with a 1918 total.
Last but not least, AL Work,
one of the oldest campaignerS
still active in the game, who in
his prime was always denied the
highest honors, seems on his way
to a championship, not of major
proportion, true, but a champion
ship nevertheless, with his flashy
GAS opening set in the Southpaw
Sweepstakes.

"Ooch," as Moriarty was af-
fectionate1y known in 1911, 1912
and 1918, when he established
football history at Georgetown,
has been designated as the Demo
cratic party'S candidate for the
office.
Political forecasters state that
Moriarty has better than an even
chance to win, due to the capable
manner in which he has dis
charged his duties as district at
torney for Western MaSsachu-
setts, an office he has held for
several years.
Outstanding Lineman
In his playing days at George
town, Moriarty was the outstand-
ing lineman in this territory.
Glenn Scobie Warner, then coach
of the Carlisle Indians, hailed
Moriarty as one of the greatest
tackles of football history. This
writer has never seen a tackle
who measured up to Moriarty.
Moriarty'S best playing weight
was 178 pounds. He was only a
step short of the lest Sprinter on
the Georgetown grid squad. Tom
was the most popular athlete at
Georgetown. He had tremendous
leg drive, extraordinary strength
in his arms, and was one of the
strongest men playing intercolle-
giate football. In some 80 col
lege games he was never out
played. He was named to various
mythical teams including Glenn
Warmers All-America eleven.
This writer was a backfield
player on the same teams with
"Ooch." The late Jimmy Fury
was another. Just before Fury
passed away, the two of us held a
tanning bee in New York and we
both were pleased to admit that
any measure of success we had
attained as football players at
Georgetown came because of the
efforts of "Ooch."
Always Cleared Path
Georgetown's famous play OF
those days was a short end run.
The play was called regularly.
Nine out of ten times the bail
carrier cut through Moriarty's S
tackle, because in three years of
football not once did "Ooch" fail
to clear the path. Histories of
the Georgetown games of IL, IL
aDd '12 nrove that more ground
was gained by the short end run
over Moriarty's position than by
all other Georgetown plays put
together.
Moriarty, a leader in his classes
as well as Georgetown's greatest
football player, has gained wide
spread recognition as a lawyer
He has figured in many Of the
most famous trials of Massa-

STAR BOWLERS REALIZE AMBITION THIS SEASON
BUSINESS HIGH
LOOKS TO NEXT
FLOOR YEAR
BY SID KATZNELL

Lynn Woodworth. three-sport
coach of Business High School,
is wreathed in smiles these days.
His regular 1892 basketball team
returns next season.
In addition to the five regu-
lars, Upton, Sherman, Cava-
naugh, Shore and Grimm, the
Stenogs are fortunate in secur-
ing George Beach, former first
string center with Tech High five
in 1880. Last year Beach was
ineligible because Of scholastic
standings. Upton was elected
captain to succeed Sherman.
The acquisition of Beach will
be a considerable aid to Business,
as last year the pivot position
was it's main problem. George
towers 6 feet 2 inches.
Averages IA Points
Incidentally, Beach is now play.
ing with the Delaware and Hud-
son basketers who won section B
championship of the Community
Center League. He has been
averaging IA points a game.
Woody is really enthusiastic
over having Carroll Shore, sensa-
tional sll.high guard, back for
competition.
Here's how Woodworth sums up
the situation:
81 am not saying that well
win the championship next
year, but we will be much
stronger than the past season.
Beach will be considerable
help. For results, we must
wait for the SERIES"
The subs returning next year
are Fishbein, Geraci, Scher and
MaraSico.
Scher Worth Watching
This fellow Scher will be worth
watching when play begins. He
is the lad who sunk a basket just
as the gun barked in the past
series to give his team a 1-point
victory over Western.
