, CAPTAIN WOOLVERTON TELLS
OF MANY ACTS CORDIALITY
s EXTENDED TO PARTY
The wonderful hospitality of the
* residents of the Westward districts is
) nothing new to the people of Sew.
1 ard; this courteousness was again in
evidence during the recent trip of
Capt. Robert B. Woolverton, radio
officer in charge of this area, U. S.
Signal Corps, who, while Westward,
installed two new radio stations, one
at Squaw Harbor and the other at
Dillingham. Captain Woolverton "was
accompanied on the round.trip by
:‘T’S Wcoiverton and daughter Patsy.
But let the Captain tell it in his own
words:
“We left Seward May 23 on the S.
S. Starr, and although we had rough
weather that night, the rest of the
trip Westward was wonderful. None
of the Woolverton family was sea.
sick either coming or going.
* Wes found the islands and mainland
in green, instead of white, as we left
Seward. In fact, with the brilliant
sunshine, the green everywhere, and
the blue of the water in th<^ coves
and bays, the country Westward re.
minded me of many tropical islands
I have visited.
“I think the thing that impressed
me most westbound was the length of
time required at most the smaller
places like Perryville, to unoad a few
tons from the Starr. For instance at
Perryville, it required 18 hours to
unload 19 tons of general freight. This
was because it was accomplished from
an anchored position off.shore, by dis.
! charging into a single dory, with two
men in it. After the dory was loaded
each time, it had to be rowed ashore,
landed through the surf, piled on
shore where the surf could not reach
it, and then the dory was rowed back
to the ship. There were plenty of
people ashore, and plenty of boats,
but no cooperation.
“When we arrived at Squaw Har.
bor, all hands and the cook were
there to meet us. From that moment
on our experience with the Pacific
Ame:?car Fisheries people was some
thing we can never forget. We were
housed in a modern apartment with
every known convenience, with ‘China
boys’ to wait upon our every whim,
carry wood and coal, take out ashes,
run errands, etc. If we mentioned
some neighboring island or town, the
company’s tug was waiting for us at
the dock. We were taken out to the
famous Kelly Rock trap, known every,
where as the ‘million dollar trap’s
where we watched them life 10,000
fish each trip, when fish were not be.
ing caught anywhere else. When we
admired the big ‘kings’, we found a
case of hand packed king salmon un.
der the berth when we started home.
Never for a moment during our stay
were we permitted to be without en_
tertainment, kindness, and the finest
hospitality we have ever known.
“I had intended to complete as much
of the work of installation of the new
radio station at Squaw Harbor as
possible while the Starr went to Dil.
lingham and returned, but was most
emphatically overruled by Mr. Bard.

TIME TO CLEAN UP
The citizens and property owne-s
of the city are urged at this tim?,
row that all trace of winter snows
have disappeared, to clean up their
Sards and lots. Seward has always
had a reputation of being the clean,
cst and most beautiful of all the Al
askan cities. Thisi reputation was
gained by the general cooperation of
the citizens, who have always tak*-*
immense pride of their home a$d
town. This is just a gentle reminder
to those who 'have not as yet started
in on their spring cleaning.
The Seward City Council is scheTill
ed to meet in session tonight.
Frye-Bruhn’s Baby Beet is unex
celled.
