WHITE SHEEP, BLACK TAILS
Why an Alaskan white sheep should
have a white tail is what Robert
Frothingham, author, anthologist, ex
plorer and big game hunter wanted
to know so he came to Alaska. At the
present time he and his party are still
out West where Frisco used to get
its ice supply. But he is due back in
Seward in a few days then perhaps
his finding will become known.
The low-down truth with respect
to R. C. Ingrim’s title, is Chief En
gineer, Inspector- Superintendent, or
the Bureau of Public Roads. Jo!
that down in the old blue book.

DEFEAT SCHOOL BONDS
Arrivals in Seward from Anchor
age reveal a condition over there
which, in the face of the recent de
feat, of the Anchorage school bond
election, is difficult for many Sew
ard people to understand.
Anchorage school facilities are so
overcrowded that the first and sec
ond grades have had to be put in
the basement; about 50 of the lower
grade children must be housed in
tlie Pioneer hall, others in the Fire
hall, and the manual training class
in still another building!
And in the face of all this the
majority of the voters turned down
the proposition of issuing ‘bonds for
i building a new school As one visitor
in Seward said today if Anchorage
could see and feel the change here
in Seward since Seward’s recent suc
cessful school bond election, there
would be no hesitantcy over there.
Caring for the children in those
various places necessitates the em
ployment of two, first grade teach
ers and a huge rental to be pail
for the rooms used by the extra num
ber of students. The high school as
sembly, which originally afforded
just enough room for about 50 stu
dents, is now crowded beyond com
fort with 80 or more students.
Having failed in their first at
tempt to bond Anchorage for $100,000
for a new school house, it is hoped
the second attempt of Anchorageites
will meet with the success attained
by Seward.
