CIIPTIIIII BILLY TIKES
INDICT WILLOP IT
The following paragraph is taken
from “Whiz Bang”, the November
number which has just been put on
sale in town. As may be recalled the
publisher of the book is Captain Faw
| cett who hunted with the Alaska Gla
| cier Tours Association a few months
i ago. The company maintains its of
! fices at Anchorage. The paragraph:
i
The trip up here (Captain Billy re)
[ fers to his trip to Seward from Seattle
j in all probability) has put me straight
| on a lot of bum information that I
! have been carrying around for sever
i al years. Imagine my surprise when I
i
| stepped off the good ship, Aleutian,
j at Anchorage (the punctuation is
[ their's not ours) to be greeted by
none other than Dan Me Grew!
Naturally, when several residents
read of the direct slam at Seward
they became indignant; others just
laughed. But as a result of the mis
information , several letters are being
written to the publisher and among
the first is that of "Lucky” Baldwin,
local busines man. His letter follows:
Capt. Bill,
Whiz Bang.
Truthful Sir :
In your letter from Anchorage you
speak of meeting “Dan Me Grew” and
the lady that’s known as “Lou.” That,
the writer can easily understand, as
Alaska is full of Dan Me Grew ladies
known as “Lou” but HOW IN H— you
could step off the S. S. Aleutian at
Anchorage and be greeted by them,
the writer can’t comprehend,(did you
wear Jack the Giant Killer’s 40 mile
t
boots boots) Anchorage being 114
miles inland from Seward where you
did land (perhaps in a daze at the
grandeur or Puritan malt) and you
may have under these conditions mis
judged the distance from Anchorage
to the deep-wnter terminal of the
greatAlaska Railroad at Seward.
