YOU'LL GET BlDSTMf
“Produce the band and you’ll get
the band-stand,” a member of the
city council at yesterday’s Chamber
meeting when he was asked if the
city would erect a band-stand this
spring. Rising to the occasion, Cap
tain Guthrie, commanding officer,
U. S. Signal Corps, stated the nuc
leus of an excellent band was already
in formation, referring to the Signal
Corps orchestra, but that many mon
ths were required of constant prac
ticing before a band of ten or twelve
pieces arrived at that point whe^e
they could perform with any degree
of perfectness.
He informed those present that |
there were any number of instru- j
ments available for any musicians
who desires to turn out and practice.
The main thing is to form a baud
and it is hoped civilian musicians
will come forward and lend their tal
ents to such an organization.
According to present plans it is the
Accord in to present plans it is the
intent of the Seward High School
basketball team to take a jaunt over
to Anchorage and show them how
the famous indoor sport should be
played. If no hitch takes place the
lads will go over on next Thursday’s
train, a week from tomorrow. It is
expected a series of three games will
be played, returning home Saturday.

cording to the recent change in
