MICHIGAN YOUTHS
FIND SEWARD TO
BE VERY FINE CITY
[ Seward is certainly one of the
i finest towns in Alaska in the op
! inion of Ben Laboree and Willard
| Hildebrand, Jr., who with Prof. Dow
W. Baxter, of the University of
Michigan are in Alaska collecting
floral specimens for the University.
' The Michigan trio arrived in Sew
1 ard from Moose Pass the other day
1 and will remain here for possibly
' two weeks collecting local flora.
They had intended to go on to
1 Cordova and Southward but they
1 decided they would stay here.
’ Prof. Baxter is not a newcomer
1 to Alaska, having spent a previous
1 season on the Yukon. On this trip
the trio stopped off at Ketchikan,
and Juneau, went up the Richard
son highway to Fairbanks, then
down to MfcKinley Park, to Anch
orage, Sunrise, Moose Pass and
Seward.
Laboree is a senior at Michigan
land Hildebrand is a junior. The
I latter is a husky young fellow and
| plays guard o.n the Michigan Var
j sity.
I Both Laboree and Hildebrand
carry a pleasing sparkle in their
(eye which is all that is necessary
f to say they like Alaska. They were
'not reticent to remark about what
:a delightful town Seward is and
'they said that their visit here is
doing much to correct an erron
• eons impression they had formed
of this city.
During their stay here the trio
is gathering more specimens and
are busy boxing flora already col
lected for shipment.
