FIRST TOWER FOR BIG
RADIO PLANT ERECTED
4 _ .
Erection of the first 200-foot tower
for the Seward radio station was com
pleted yesterday by the sub-contractor
for Gutleben Brothers and the work
of riveting the structure will be com
menced at once. Erection of the sec
on tower will be started soon and will
be completed at an early date.
Daniel Gutleben, who is in personal
charge, has certainly secured splendid
results, considering the force of men
employed in tfie time since he arrived
here with materials.
The steel workers put up the little
flag always found at the top of newly
completed steel structures last even
ing. There is a superstition among
steel men that to fail in marking the
topmost work with a flag means bad
luck on the next job.
