SAN FRANCISCO, Calf, Sept.
16-Nisei football fans are hop
ing that the San Francisco '49ers
win roll up q big lead early In
the game Sunday against the
Baltimore Colts at Kezzr stadium

rent that Wa1ly Yonamine, Nisei
halfback isn't going to get n real
good chance to show his stuff in
a league game unless the local
team has the game cinched.
As usual, several hundred Nj
sci are expected to be in the
stands for the game Sunday.
Many Nisei have noted that they
aren't the only ones who want to
see more Of Wally. Other nom
Nisei fans have been heard num-
bling in all parts Of the stadium
for q better glimpse Of 'Yo-nah-
mee-nee" because Of all the pre-
season writeups Of out-of-town
games.

Third League Cup Coming Up for Lotus?

We don't know how much longer we must
wait for Kate, but we're sure we'll know we
won't have to wait much longer to crown the
Northwest Times Baseball League champions.
One of the two title contenders, Valley or
Lotus Ms, will tumble about 2:30 or O'Clock
this Sunday afternoon at Columbia No. l play
field.
If the Ms win, it'll be the third time In 10
cal diamond history that Lotus nine has an
nexed league title
The Lotus Ashuras were the first to BRING
home to the Buddhist temple league baseball
trophy that in 1910 when they took the Glass
diadem.
In the following year. 1911, the Lotus Lam
GERS came through with the Class champion
ship
The now disbanded Lotus Trojans were
lawfully close'' to several league championships
but lost out when their stars sailed the high seas
for Alaska cannery work.
Eyebrows are being raised among Lotus
fans today: Can the Ms make it No. 3?

Girls iron and help with the washing when school hours are finished. Even the dishes are community chore, with older children taking turns at the dishpan.
 Yet even as they struggled to build home which would shel- ter them this winter, workers were looking beyond to the per- manent home they hope to have. The present temporary structure will be in use two years, they feel, but already logs have been cut and the basement dug for their permanent home. That basement, which would have taken several days labor for mechanical equipment, was scraped out with shovel and pick by home workers and older boys. But it's not all work and no fun for these 32 boys and girls. They haven't many toys, for the fire which burned El-Nathan home destroyed all those, but they find time for play with "Mittens," a St. Bernard dog, and a kitten. They also partici- pate in Palmer's community life, enjoying basketball games and all child activities of the Valley.
 They wear cords and T-shirts or cotton dresses and sweaters, just as school children every where. They are as merry at table as the children of any fam fly. There are several family groups together at Lazy oMun- tain, and it all makes for much chatting and visiting when they come together at lunch or din ner.
 Two small sisters dawdle over a lunch of sandwiches, soup and apples, as only a six and seven year-old can. Even a dislike for the food on her plate was judici- ously handled by one chubby

The 2 members of the Valley Dairyman's Association who brought suit against the Mata- nuska Valley Farmers Cooper atlng Association were awarded interest on the $28,700 sum giv- en them. The decision was hand ed down last week by Judge An thony J. Dimond of the third dis trlct court in Anchorage.
 The judge said he had over looked mentioning the interest in his recent court decision against the Coop. He awarded interest at six per cent for each of the 22 men from July 1, 1946

little girl. After sarnpling. the soup and deciding against it, she promptly marched outdoors and fed it to the cat.
 And like all children every where, Christmas is the most i'm portant topic of discussion at any mealtime. They're not quite cer- tain what Christmas morning will bring, but they're all sure there'H be toys in the dining hall again, when packages are un- wrapped at breakfast-time:
 MT. and Mrs. Hughes are not quite certain about that Christ mas morning either. They are sure there'll be one gift for each of the 32 children, and they hope it will be enough. For Christmas gifts are among those items which we don't actually need, but are things we'd like to have, 7 of which MT. Hughes spoke.
Valley frontiersman., 1947-12-24

Hughes aren't quite sure how it's to be done yet.
 The home at Lazy Mountain, which is build on ground given by Max Sherrod, is a branch of the El-Nathan Children's home at Valdez. It was begun only last April, when MT. Hughes moved in on his 60-acre patch of ground and trees and began to build.
 Hand-Hewn Home
 The present structure is prac- t1cally a one-man job, for MT. Hughes and the older boys com pleted most of the major con- struction alone. Everything that could possibly be fashioned from the materials at hand was made by the homes director and his helpers. They lived in a tiny log cabin, which since has been moved to new site near the present main structure.
 That cabin is now the honey. moon cottage of MT. and Mrs. John Valentine, home workers who were recently married at a candlelight service in the dining hall.
 Work went rapidly with will ing hands, however, and in May, when school ended at Valdez, the children who were to make their home at Lazy Mountain were moved. The Valdez institution had burned last winter, and it was imperative that new quar- ters be found as soon as possible.
 Everyone Helped
 There was no roof on the din- ing room yet, but children and workers were happy in their mountain surrounded hom e. Everyone helped with the work. They still do. Boys cut logs, helped with the carpentering, harvested potatoes and did what ever they could to provide food and shelter for the winter.

.ThaW Caused 7
 Many Wrecks

The misplaced Florida weather that swept the Valley bare of snow last week, first smoothed snow-packed streets and roads to glassy smoothness. Motorists and pedestrians alike skidded to market and skidded home again before the ice disappeared en- tirely.
 Many motor vehicles were in- volved in accidents on Wednes- day, Thursday and Friday, al- though none resulted in serious injuries. The most spectacular smash-up occurred at Eklutna crossing last Thursday evening, when an automobile failed to stop at the top of the incline and skidded to collision with pass ing freight.
 The vehicle was carried nearly 50 feet down the track before the train could be stopped. All though the automobile was al- most demolished by the accident, none of it's five passengers was seriously hurt. Mrs. Gloralie Brown suffered a broken ankle and Mrs. Fred Hasekoester fractured arm. The other three passengers needed only first aid treatment at the 183rd General hospital at Fort Richardson, where they were taken.
 It. Harold Lamberton of the Post, who is living in the Val ley and assisting Dr. R. E. Garret on weekends, arrived at the scene of the accident in time to assist the injured passengers.
 A second train-automobile col lision occurred in Palmer the following evening. Again the oc- cupant of the vehicle was un- hurt. The Anchorage-bound train struck Stakeholder truck atthe downtown Palmer crossing. The vehicle was driven by Mrs. John Mcdonald of Palmer. She was shaken up but not otherwise hurt.
 Buses of both the Matanuska Valley lines and the O'Harra Bus Co.,, slid off the road during the three-day period of thaw. Pas sengers and drivers were unin- | iIred in both cases. Drivers re- ported seeing as many as seven or eight cars" in the ditch along the highway between Anchorage and Palmer.

 Team members will fly to Cor dova. A plane has been chartered for the trip. It now is tentatively planned that the ShamrockS will play a Cordova town team at the same time, in order to cut the cost of air transportation.
