MOTION PICTURE PIOTT
Progress of the Metro-Goldwyn
motion picture party now enroute
to Nome was halted temporarily
last week when the spanker boom
on the auxiliary schooner Nanuk
was broken in high seas two days
out of Squaw Harbor.
The Nanuk, which is to be used
in the actual filming of the Metro
picture “Eskimo,’’ has encounter
ed adverse weather conditions
during most of the trip from Seat
tle. She is carrying a good share
of the equipment of the expedi
tion, and the party’s chief wire
less operator, H. D. Watson, for
mer chief of the Los Angeles port
of wireless station, KOK.
The main complement of per
sonnel for the picture is enroute
to Nome on the SS Victoria, which
is due there this week.

PILOT DORBINOT WILL
FLY FI. HUBBIHD HU !
INTO NBINEMN
Back to Anchorage today, to pick
up two passengers for Bristol Bay
and enroute fly the Fr. B. R. Hub
bard exploration party to its
next base, is the work facing Pilot
Frank Dorbandt, independent “ace”
who arrived at the local base early
Sunday evening from Anchorage.
Mechanic Herb Larison is accom
panying Dorbandt.
It was planned take-off this
morning but the tide would not
permit it, the plane coming in on
last evening’s high tide and leav
ing the ship high and dry on the
ebb.
The noted geologist, Fr. Hubbard,
and party of foul*, Rod and Ken
Chisholm, Fr. Galtes and Ed Levin,
will be taken aboard at Kujalik
bay and, with their outfit, flown
into the crater of Aniakchak where
the learned men will remain based
for 10 days carrying on their scien
tific investigations.
It will be recalled Pilot Dor
bandt recently flew Hubbard into
the crater and landed in the face
of an erupting vent at another end
of the crater. Dorbandt reports
2,000 feet of moving picture film
and 160 still pictures were taken
by Father Hubbard at that time.
In places the heat was terrific, reg
istering 600 degrees, and that in
taking off the plane was literally
blown out of the crater by the
hot blasts.
He also reports that the geolo
gist has discovered that the crater
designated as Aniakchak is an er
ror; that Chivinok is the correct!
name for it. Aniakchak means!
“wide bay;” Chivinok is the In
dian name for “big volcano,’’ and
Veniamenoff means “erik.”
The Hubbard party will return
to Seward next month, Dorbandt
thought, and Father Hubbard may
fly to Seattle with him for he will j
make a hop about that time hav- j
ing one passenger already signed
up to go; the price will be $200.

TRUCE HUSHES
The motor-vessel Westdahl of the
U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, a
frequent caller in Seward last sum
mer, doubtless possesses a charm
which extends and includes mem
bers of its crew. This was demon
strated vividly two weeks ago when
the ship anchored in Tonki Bay on
Afognak Island and two bear hunt
eers went ashore with their heavy
caliber guns and sheathed hunting
knives.
The heroes of our true narrative
were J. A. “Bud” Dalrymple and
James “Jimmy’’ Smith. Having
sallied forth in accepted Nimrod
style, stalking through the spruce
trees of that region in their vigilant
offensive on ursa major, they had
become skeptical of the presence of
bear.
“Aw, I’m thirsty and hungry”,
said Bud. “Let’s go down to the
creek and get a drink.”
“So’m I,” said Jimmy, after some
reflection.
The pair turned from their ursine
pursuit and headed toward the
creek, when the brush crackled
ahead of them. Jimmy grabbed
Bud. Bud grabbed Jimmy.
“Great Scott! “they exclaimed in
unision. “A she brown bear and two
cubs!”
There they stood, across the
creek, sniffing the air and looking
at the two trembling hunters.
Bud was the first to recover. Un
liimbering his trusty gun, he fired
at the big bear. She tumbled back
ward and lay still. By this time
Jimmy had come into action. He
fired at one of the little bears. It
likewise fell backward and lay still
He gave the second little one a sim
ilar salute and it fell backward.
“Do you think it’s safe to go over
there now?” Jimmy asked Bud.
“I dunno. Let’s go uphill and i
watch ‘e mawhile.”
They turned to go when WOOF!
they saw a shaggy brown form ap
proaching them from that direction.
There was no hesitation. Both
hunters turned about-face and
started dowhill. WOOF' Ahead of
them was another shaggy brown
form. As one man they turned
again, heading for the stream.
Splash! Together they (jumped
in, began a hasty flight down
stream, never stopping until they
reached the welcome beach and
their skiff. An hour later the West
dahl was electrified with the news
that the hunters had seen six bears
I at one time. Next day a rigging
party, supplied with sharp knives,
j handy-billies, ropes and scrapers,
followed hunters Dalrymple and
Smith to the scene of yesterday’s
mighty carnage But lo! the bears
had vanished, and there was not so
much as a hair’s trace of the work
of the mighty Nimrods.

BETTER TIMES ARE COMING
Don’t be Discouraged!
Don’t lose the will to win .... don’t join the pessimist's who
isee naught but disaster ahead—
•During a previous depression, the government had to is
sue paper “Clearing House Certificates” as a substitute for
money. Conditions were just as bad, only we have forgotten.
Prosperity has always followed bad times—this is one of the
laws of business cycles.
Now is the time to substitute the word “Reconstruction” for
“depression.**
Don’t be discouraged. Lend a hand to reestablish confidence.
America will see this through and emerge victorious.
