PREMIER COAL
TO IWADE MARKETS
BARTLEY HOWARD TELLS OF
PLANS OF HIS MINES AT
MOOSE CREEK
“With an unlimited supply ol
coal in sight and our new wash
r
i
ing equipment going in, we are
out for the markets of all Alas
ka,” said Bartley Howard, head
: of the Alaska Matanuska Mines
Company and the Premier Mine,
f both on Moose Creek Mr How
ard, accompanied by Mrs. How
ard, paused Saturday in Seward
I on his way £o the States on bus
I iness. Mrs. Howard will visit her
former home in Kentucky.
“We are producing commercial
bituminous coal of an excellent
grade and will continue to pro
duce this A-l product. There will
jbe a force of men on the job all
| winter. The washers will eliminate
! waste and we will offer to the
| people of the Territory a fine
.sample of their own product. We
!are finally getting back to the
first principles. Back to what the
Alaska Railroad was built forr—
to ship Alaska products.”
“Premier coal will go to the
towns along the southeast coast
and to the Westward,” Mr. How
ard said “It will go into direct
competition with coals from the
Outside, confident that Alaskans
will give it the preference. And
j we can freely recommend it be
cause it carries heat units better
than most coals. It is a splendid
fuel and no other coal should be
j used in the Territory except Alas
| ka coal.”
| Mr. Howard is negotiating with
! various concerns along the south
j east coast, and will take up the
| matter with Westward canneries
i to be supplied from the Port of
| Seward. On his present trip he
, will visit San Francisco, Los An
; geles and Kentucky, expecting to
- --•*—
be absent from the Territory for
a couple of months.

FIREMEN FJLL HOLES
SHOWS GIL
The Seward Firemen’s cagers
got badly scorched Saturday nite
when they contacted the live
wires from the Signal Corps. The
Army deluged them by the score
of 24 to 15.
What became of the Firemen’s
mascot, the “dark-horse,” is not
known but when last seen young
Urie was 16 miles out the road
and going fast in a northward di
rection.
The game was most interesting
from the standpoint of roughness
as momentarily the spectators ex
pected someone to take the count.
Their wish was almost gratified
in the last stanza when Noble
crashed into one end of the hall,
! bounced off and down to the
J floor where he rested on his hands
! and knees for a four-count. Then
up and away only to collide head
on with another chap. That time
Noble staggered back with that
peculiar look in a man’s eye who
is about out on hs feet. Noble
| shook his mustache and the cob
| webs and was back in their fight
I ing again. A little later he took
one in the solar plexus; time out
was called for a breathing spell.
Yes indeed it was a thrilling
game to watch from the sidelines
i but it was rough, brother, very
; rough. Jim Galen of Cordova al
| most had his brand new $15 hat
ruined when one of the players
mistook it for the ball. Jim just
smiled, and smiled
The Army played ring around
rosy with the Firemen who seem
ed to be entirely out of luck when
it came to shooting. Guard Otto
Sandbeck again proved himself
a difficult obstacle to overcome
as he knocked-down ball after
ball. Shellhorn, Andresen, Coon
and Guy Manthey were entirely
out of luck and couldn’t lay up
a thin dime though credit must
be given for scores made and say
j ing nothing about those missed.
Guy plunked in five field shots,
I Sandbeck and Andresen one and
I Sandbeck, also, a foul heave.
The Army sharp-shooters, led
| by Ace Raymond Manthey. total
ed something like this: Raymond
! 7 field baskets and 2 fouls; Hard
! fighting Turner 4, field goals;
“Speedball” Homan 1 field and 1
| foul line throw, and Rongen, i
foul line point.
Tomorrow, as usual, the Seward
Chamber of Commerce will meet
at noon in the Seward Grill at
the weekly business session and
i luncheon.
