MOTHERING A BROOD
It was once the boast of old-time U. S. deputy mar
shals that when a man who could shoot straighter and
quicker showed up he could take their star and job.
While Commander John F. Baylis of the good ship
USS Itasca does not throw any such challenge to his brood
of young sea dogs, it is a known fact that he packs a wal
lop in either hand and besides other sports, is numbered
among the leather pushers aboard the Coast Guard cutter.
Commander Baylis’s willingness to lead his crew in
wholesome athletic sports and exercises, when democracy
supplants the “majesty which doth hedge a king,” ac
counts for the esprit de corps of Uncle Sam's fighting
force, and explains why the Stars and Stripes have never
been humbled, but made glorious on the sea. Such com
manders do not have men fight under them, but with them.
Such bending of discipline aboard an American ship
of war, is the bane of foreign naval officers. They cannot
understand how a commander, admiral or other wearer
of the gold braid, can put aside the dignity which accom
panies such insignia of honor and merit, and meet Jack
Tar on equal terms, or send his cheverons into the brig
while he has a joust with an inferior officer with the
knuckle dusters.
John Paul Jones taught the British what this esprit
Je corps, born of recognition of worthy human qualities,
meant in a fracas.
It is such men as Commander Baylis who may teach
some other nation what his naval pups can do if they get
their fur rubbed the wrong way.
Down in Missouri a good hound is evidently valued
more than our law enforcement agencies value a baby.
When Bill Alexander believed that John Cook had kid
napped his purp he picked up his gun, found Cook and
gunned him into kingdom come.
A war expert claims that a gas attack is not neces
sarily dangerous. He has evidently overlooked the last two
sessions of Congress.
An educator has willed his brain to science. Now we
may hope to ascertain the cause for the hooey which has
been taught in the past ten years.
Evidently Mooney is anxious to get free before Hol
lywood closes up.
What Li’l Old New York needs most is a flock of
porcupines.

KETCHIKAN BHOADCAST
RECEIVED IN SEWARD
Seward radio listeners and dial
twirlers were given a treat Wednes
day evening when radio station
KGBU, at Ketchikan, came on the
air.
Although this station is not using
its full power as allowed by the
Federal Radio Commission, the
station came in quite clearly. It
was explained by the announcer
that the station would not use its
full power until after 100 hours of
operation so that they can gradu
ally work in their new transmitter.
The announcer said that listen
ers of this station would gradually
find the station coming in with ad
ditional clarity and everything
would be better as they continue
operation.
KGBU broadcasts on a wave
length of 900 kilocycles.

RETURN FROM VISIT
The Misses Agnes Anderson and

son, wife of Lieutenant Nelson of
the USS Discoverer, returned Wed
nesday evening from a brief visit
with Mr. and Mrs. Peter Sather on
Nuka Island. As momentos of the
trip they brought back a number
of Indian wood carvings—totem
like curiosities—whch Mrs. Sath
er was fortunate to find recently. It
is said these carvings were found
on the mainland at an apparently
abandoned or ancient village.
