From "Wednes Jay's Oaily Swept away before the brilliant offence and the equally effective de fense tactics of the (.'reishton Prep basketball team, the Platsmouth High school team suffered a defeat of 55 to 17 at the Creighton gym in Omaha last night. The prep school showed its most effective work of the year against the lighter and smaller Plattsmouth team, which was a decided reversal in form for the Omaha aggregation which was recently defeated by Cen tral high school. In the opening quarter the game was very close ami at the close of the quarter the score was 8 to 5 in favor of Creighton. with the Platts mouth team playing a very fast brand of ball which caused the fans to speculate as to the final outcome of the battle. In the second quarter the Creighton aggregation started their successful offense and ended ; the first half in the lead by the score ' of IS to S. At the opening of the second half the Plattsmouth defense tightened, but it was only for a short time as the Omaha players with their clever plays were able to work the ball through their opponents' defense. Short passes were very effective in rolling up the score for the young Hilltoppers. Halpine, fed by Walsh, Leahey and Fuxa. was able to tally basket after basket as the Platts mouth team seemed unable to solve the attacking methods of the Oma ha cagesters. Walsh also made some long shots that were good for baskets in the last part of the game. Joe Buttery was high point man for Plattsmouth with two field goals and five free throws out of six chances. Edgar Wescott played the best all round game on the offense, however, for his team, and tallied late in the game with a field goal from the center of the large gym floor. The Plattsmouth players were very accurate in their free throws. Uox score: Plattsmouth (17) FG FT F Kartfcrd. If 0 1 Reoal. rf 0 Wescott. c 2 Halt. Ig 0 Buttery, rg 2 Flynn.

York of thts city has received from his son, Russell York, who is ' located at Petersburg, Alaska, a very .'interesting folder that tells of the advantages of that town in the great territory of Alaska. The average resident of the continental United i States has little Idea of the size or resources of the comparatively un known country to the north which is one of the greatest possessions of the United States and without a doubt the most valuable. The town of Petersburg is located at the end of the Wrangell Narrows and has a very valuable harbor there J for vessels. The chief industries or the community is that connected J with the fish and salmon canneries ' rf? there are three shrimp canneries, one crab cannery and two salmon canneries there. The climate, so the folder states, Is practically the same as that of Washington. D. C, the lo cality being much warmer than the j j north and west of the United States j ' by reason of the Japanese current. I The while of southeastern Alaska benefits by the effects of the cur rent, although the northern portions of the vast territory are covered with snow and ice in the winter season. Fruit and dairy farming are also very profitable in that part of the Alaska territory.
