CARNIVAL NEWS REPORTER CENSORED
Cont riIbuted)

Owing to the use of too many descriptive adjectlves and ad- verbs in his copy in giving the unbiased story of the greatest carnival of all time the reporter is crying his eyes out and tear ing his hair out by the roots be- cause they gave his scoop the axe. He has been covering big events for the last fifty years or more and has never had the op- portunity to write up or even witness such an affair as the car nival certainly will be. The fol- lowing is the story with portions censored:
 "In covering this story I wish to be modest in my descriptions as I do not want it said that l am over anxious or over sold on this carnival idea. The carnival is just as I see it from having had the opportunity to sit in at all committee meetings and listen to all reports. The carnival former ly held each year by the Nome Kennel Club now sponsored by the Arctic Club will be held Sat urday evening March End. It will be the best and most (censored) party of the season and possibly for a (censored) years to come. After what I've heard of the re- ports of the several committee all (censored) couldn't keep me way. The program taking a fair portion of the evening the most delightful and (censored) enter tainment (censored) staged (cen sored). It has been said else WliClC Lliot PiOSi olii O1 IiiS C' ening would be forthcoming in the Friday issue of our (censor- ed) Nome Nugget but the cen sors sensed a couple of Censor ed) dark horses on the program and refused to allow the pro- gram to be printed owing to the fact that these shady entries are certain to be a big (censored) ad dition to the (censored) stupend ous (censored) program. Don't miss it or you will be (censored) (censored).
