_____
The radio operator of the
watch aboard the Coast Guard
patrol boat. Cyane, at Ketchikan,;
swung to the typewriter and ad
justed the volume control on his
receiving set. A thin voice was
piping through the static on the
2670-kilocycle radiophone band:
‘‘SOS, SOS, Motorship Patter
son ashore twenty miles south
Yakutat near Cape Fairweather.
We are breaking up slowly. Send
help.”
Thus was the vast lifesaving
machinery of the United States;
Coast Guard put into action for
one of the most dramatic rescues
in the recent history of Alaska.
The story “Ship Wreck,” by Stan
Lilian, in" the March issue of the
Alaska Sportsman gives a thrill-,
ing detail a first-hand account of;
a shipwreck and subsequent res-'
cue that occupied the headlines
in newspaper stories and radio
broadcasts throughout the nation
for two weeks prior to Christ
mas.
Another thrilling drama in this
new issue of the Sportsman
which has just been published is
included in Kenneth L. Cohen’s
Letters of a King Cove School
teacher entitled .“Battle for
Life." It tells the story of a hardy
Alaskan who was left on the
I beach o£ the bleak and desolate
Alaska Peninsula without food,
clothing, fire, or weapons when
his small boat was wrecked in
.the boiling surf. His companion
was drowned in the wreck. The
story of his sufferings and sub
sequent rescue makes this install
ment the most thrilling of the
series.
C. M. Archbold of the U. S.
Forest Service tells of the work
that the Service is doing to re
store the ancient totem poles and
native dwellings of Alaska to
their original state in his article,
“Restoration.” It is an authentic
description of the work being
carried on, and he explains how
the government is preserving
these historic relics for the en
joyment and enlightenment of
tourists and future generations
of Alaskans.
E. L. Keithahn appears with a
well-illustrated article on “The
Secret of the Fetroglyphs," and
gives some inside information on
*
the mysterious rock carvings
found in various parts of South
eastern Alaska.
In her article “I Married An
Alaska Photographer,” Laura P.
Ordway of Juneau gives a vivid
idea of her life as the wife of an
. enthus.astic photographer; climb
ling glaciers and mountains, trav
eling distant rivers by steamer
and frozen trails by dog team, ac
companying her husband on dan
gerous assignments while she
marvelled at the scenic glories
encountered. Fine photographs
from these trips add zest and
fascination to the story,
f Excellent illustrations, both on
cover and frontpiece, as well as
throughout the magazine con-1
tribute to make this one of the
finest numbers published, and
i the stirring editorial brings to
light the crying need for ade
quate publicity on Alaska and
what it has to offer both to the
tourist and the settler.
