MERL Ul HOY HIS
CIRCLED ME SINCE
LEFT SEWARD IN 1925
The many friends of Merl La
Voy who, since his residence in
Seward years ago, has become
one of the leading free lance mov
ing and still picture photographers
in the United States, writes the
following interesting letter which
tells of his travels and adventures
since he left the Northland and
of his keen desire to return:
Dear Jessen:
It seems such a long time since
I last saw you in Seward, about
Xmas of 1925. I have covered
a lot of country since then. After
coming South in the fall of 1926
I remained here in Los Angeles till

OUT FOR VACATION
Miss Margarete Porter, one of
Anchorage’s charming younger set,
departed last evening aboard the
SS. Yukon for Los Angeles, where
she plans on spending a well earn
ed six week’s rest. Miss Porter is
assistant chief telephone operator
at the Anchorage city office and
her charming voice over the long
distance will be sorely missed.
Harold Koslosky, young Anchor
age clubman, came over on the re
gular train Friday and rot irnr.d to
the Interior this morning
Darathy Hubbard, nee Stiles, the
charming daughter of Warren
Stiles, Chief Dispatcher of the Al
aska Railroad, left for the Outside
on the SS. Yukon and plan? going
to Los Angeles where she has been
offered employment.
spring of 1927 when I went to
China and covered the revolution
for Pathe News; remained there
a year then went to the Philip
pines for six months. Came back
and covered the Smith campaign
in the fall of 1928, then went with
Hoover on his South American
trip and covered him until his
inauguration, then went to the
Mexican revolution after which I
came here to Los Angeles and
have been in this vicinity ever
since, with the exception of going
to Samoa with a Congressional
Committee last September; that
was a great trip, and in a day
or two I am leaving for New York
for a month or two.
But the trip I am alw'ays wanting
to make is another trip to good
old Alaska, for that is the place
I like best and if plans I have in
mind materialize, I will be up
there again next year.
I sincerely hope that it won't
be so very long until Alaska will
unite and join in a publicity cam
paign that will bring thousands
of tourists to Alaska. I believe
that the tourist business will event
ually be Alaska’s primary indus
try—it will comparatively be to
Alaska what it is to California.
I hope everything is going along
nicely in Seward, I read the Sew
ard notes every week in the Al
aska Weekly it’s sort of old home
news as I lived in and around
Seward 25 years ago.
I recently ran across a fellow
I used to w'ork for on the old
Alaska Central in 1905. He ran
level for Walter Jones and I did
rodding for him. He is Frank Kit
tredge and is now chief engineer
of National Parks. Best regards,
I am,
