Several cars pulled into Fair
banks recently from Valdez and
all occupants had enough exper
iences in gettiijg mired and trav
eling through the woods to detour
to keep the trip from becoming
monotonous, says the News-Miner.
The first car of the Anchorage
delegation arrived with Ray C.
Larson at the wheel. With him
were Mrs. Larson, Mrs. A. J. Hew
itt and Miss Myrtle Wendler.
Behind were two other cars with
Dr .and Mrs. J. H. Romig, Howard
Romig, Robert Romig and A1 Ben
son of the Alaska Transfer Co. at
Anchorage. They shipped their
cars from .Anchorage to Valdez via.
Seward.
Dr. Romig has a big new Nash
but its fenders are said to have |
been stripped off going through
the woods just south of McCarty.
Travel over the highway there be
came impossible when silt from
the Delta filled in the road. A
detour was cut through the woods!
but it had to be abandoned when!
water encroached and now the j
detour is high up through heavy
timber.

(By Babe Hayes)
Wm. F. Whipple, a retired mer-;
chant of Worcester, Mass., who j
visited Alaska several years agoj
making the Richardson Highway!
tour, in speaking of the trip, says: j
“Thanks for the papers. Many
people here have listened to the
'wonder tales told by myself and
Moore about Alaska, and I am
sure several are interested. So
from now on you may expect
tourists and travellers of all sorts
from this part of the world to see
its wonders and meet the jolly i
good chaps like yourself who live
around Cordova and vicinity.”
In 1927 Alfred and Brewster
Bingham, sons of Senator Bing- I
ham of Connecticut, spent sev- !
eral weeks in Alaska. They came !
out from the Interior over the i
Richardson Highway. Speaking of!
their trip at a later date, they!
say:
“It was very kind of you to
mail us the Cordova papers. We
certainly did have a pleasant trip
ail around, especially at Cordova.
“If we hadn’t met you and you
hadn’t introduced us to so many
interesting people and helped us
see the things worth while yre i
might have had a rather dull j
time, but as it was you did every- I
thing for us and we enjoyed every !
minute. Alaska is a great coun- j
try and I hope we may sometime j
return.”

THEATER PROGRAMS
On tap for this evening at the
Liberty Theatre is the nine-reel
comedy drama. It is rather a
drama with plenty of comedy, be
cause the plot is a good one.
Eddie Quillan, the well known
comedy actor, heads the cast. The I
two-reel comedy is a Mack Sen
nett production and is rated as
good. A News Reel completes the
| program.
