Chapter Nine N QANGER AS wney drew near the yanding iCurt looked down the ghore seyen hundred yards and saw four old stone‘houses in the middle of & second-growth clearing. He krew what they were; at Tel: lacet he had heard stories about those cuins. An ancient Russian tur poat, tocatéd’ there ‘wiien Washing- ton was leading the ndw-born Amer jcan Republic, it was a relic of the days when Russia ruled western America from Nome to northern Calitornia, and predatory Cossacks, with “musket, sword and the heip of God.” gathered tribute for the Little White Father in faraway St. Vetersburg. Except for inland stations fin Alaska, it was one of the few posts which the Cossack expedition had established at any distance from tidewater. The four stone structures, rearing above the second growth. were half-hidden by wood vines and wild ivy, much as their actual his- tory had been overgrown with tale and superstition. The canoe nosed in to the pier. Paul jumped out and lapped the painter around a cleat. As Curt tossed their duffle on the planking, he purposely made a display of their two gold pans and short-handled shovels. Among the men watching tliem a trapper nudged another and remarked, “Prospectors, John." lleads nodded. 1t was as Curt had wished—let them draw their own conclusion and they would believe it far miore im plicitly than it Paul and he should announce their business. He introduced Paul and bimself to the old trapper called .John, who then introduced them to the others. As Curt shook hands around, be sized up the meu swiftly, Corporal Hodkins, the Mounted Policeman, was a stolid negligible fellow who would be peither a help pot hindrance.

It she was anything ot a fisherman she ought to snag some big ones in the shallows around those islands: but from the awk- ward way she handled the paddle she was plainly a tenderfoot. He turned to'Paul, who was watcli tng her too, “Who is she, d'you know?” “A stranger to me, to my regret.” Curt smiled at his rapt gaze. “You find her pretty, don't you? As pretty as p'tite Régina Ducharme at Fort Chipewyan?” “Almost!” “Humph! That'. a big admission from you!” ']‘HE girl disappeared among the islands. Curt went on with the camp work. Bending down a near-by sapling, he tied their grub pack to the top of it and flipped the sapling up again, safely caching the supplies from stray huskies.

The Tallapoosa basketeers upset the dope-bucket to take the Moose by a score of 34 to 32 in a curtain-| raiser ‘ which went into overtime at the high schoal auditorium last; night. The ‘DeMolay swamped the Flks as scheduled by 53 to 23 in one of the roughest games yet played on the local maple-court., . In the first clash, the Talla- | poosa got off to a running start by looping in three baskets be- fore the Moose got their feet un- der them. At the end of the first: quarter the score stood 8-2 for the ‘Tallapoosa. The second quarter was unevent- ful, ending with the Tallapoosa still in the lead at 14-11. Moose Spurt In the third guarter, the Moose started a drive that looked for a while as though it would cinch the game. At the climax of the spurt, Gould of the Moose sank a long one from the middle of the court, tried it again and missed. ‘Whereupon the Moose let their grip slip a bit and the quarter ended 23-20 for the Moose. The Tallapoosa came back strong in the closing frame and rushed the score up to 2829. Gould fouled Gisberg, who converted and the tied at 29-20 with a minute to play. Frantic efforts of both teams to score were fruit- less and Peterson muffed a chance to make a hero of himself by missing a foul shot as the gun sounded. Overtime Period In the overtime period, Ledbetter scored a nice one from the. side- lines, followed by Gisberg to tie the score up again at 31-31. Har- kema of the Tallapoosa scored a basket, and then Rodenberg con- verted a foul on Stroflie. Brown blew up and missed the backboard . ; o 3 | from the middle of the court, and uxuriance ol e woods | then fouled Harkema as the game ended, making the fourth foul on Brown. Harkema converted. Fracac Starts In the seoond game, Bayers of the DeMolay broke the'jce and the fracas was on. From the opening whistle to thé final, both teams were out for blood, and they didn't ssem to care whose blood it was. Even Refereé’ Regele came in for an upset to his shoulder-hlades. Charging, ' blocking and running with the mn were the ru]-= of the | Harkema | Brown, Brown for Baldwin, Gould SEE HIS UGLY AGAIN -~ | evening. The only difference from’ a good rough game of fogtball was that there weren't so many play- ing, and the ball was rounder. Both teams were ragged, ut the DeMolays could find the bas- lost a little more oftener, and that tells the tale. The score at the end of the first quarter was DeMolay 9, Elks/ |3, and the DeMolay led all the; way through. Nelson of the Elks went out at the beginning of the second frame with four person- als. At the half the teams stodd 22 to 9. Third Quarter During the third quarter, Pel- ley of the DeMolays began to get his eye and buried two in succes-| sion from the middle of the floor. Pelley likes to shoot. At the end of the quarter the score was 41-| 15. In the' final period, the bn,ttle( gained a little in speed but not in gentleness. At the worst it was a good fight.
