235-FOOT TOT VISITS
PUGET SOUND CITY;
FLEUMU'S EfiSFT
Another dash of color was add
ed to the Lake Washington marine
picture in Seattle last week with
the arrival of the trim, sleek,
black-hulled yacht Haida.
The Haida captures the eye im
mediately through size and sheer
force of contrast. While most
yachts are resplendent in white
and light mahogany dress, the
| Haida is not. She has a black
i steel hull that has a dull luster
like teak wood and her housing
is in buff.
The Haida, built on grehound
lines, is 235 feet and is the prop
erty of Maj. C. Fleischmann, mul
timillionaire manufacturer, explor
er and author.
The Haida was built in Germany
nine years ago. She is powered
with two 750 horsepower Krupp
Diesels and is capable of approxi
mately 15 knots on hour. In addi
tion to her six comodious double
staterooms, she has accommoda
tions for a crew of 30. The ship
is registered in New York but
spends most of her time in Pacific
waters. When not in service she
is laid up in the Santa Barbara
Harbor.
The sentiment back of the
choice of the name Haida for the
big yacht is not known but the
name is familiar in Alaska as1
that of a tribe of Indians near!
Ketchikan.
ALASKA HOLY HIS
20 MOSQUITO SPECIES!
Dr. George S. Tulloch, who lias
been engaged in investigation of
mosquito control in Interior Al
aska on a cooperative agreement
between the Fairbanks Exploration
Company and the Department of
Agriculture, gave a short lecture
at Fairbanks, according to the!
News-Miner. 1
Slides of mosquitoes and of
mosquito control work in the !
States were shown.
Dr. Tulloch said, it was too early
to say whether control measures
in this region would be successful.
Further investigation will be nec- j
essary before that can be deter
mined and any methods suggested
should be first tried in an expert !
mental way, it was said.
Dr. Tulloch believes there are
probably 20 species of mosquitoes l
in Alaska. It is a mistake to as
sume, he declared, that the small j
mosquitoes w’hich come after the
large ones in the spring, are prog- ■
eny of the latter kind. They are I
an entirely different species/
It is probable, the speaker as- i
serted, that control measures with- I
in a radius of a mile of town !
would result in materially lessen- i
mg the number of mosquitoes but
Dr. Tulloch desires to confer with
other experts before recommend
ing any plan for local use.
