FUCETT AND HEILNER
COIN NEW NAME .FOR
SUBSIDIARY COMPANY
Capt. W. H. Fawcett, one of the
foremost magazine publishers in the
United States, who arrives in Sew
ard this evening having concluded a
successful big game hunt under the
auspices of the Alaska Glacier Tour
association, together with Van Cam
pen Heilner, field representative of
the American Museum of Natural
History, also associate editor of Field
and Stream, performed a signal hon
or recently for the big game associa
tion. Mr. Heilner passed through' the
city some weeks ago after he also
enjoyed the rare privilege of secur
ing some excellent specimens.
They conceived the idea that the
Alaska Glacier Tour association
should have a more distinctive name,
or a subsidiary name, so forthwith
coined "The Alaska Guides Associa
tion, Inc.,” and the company imme
diately took the new child to their
bosom and adopted it.
Gus Gelles, secretary and treasurer
of the association, when asked yes
terday to divulge information con
cering the subsidiary association said
that the main reason the name was
selected was because the majority of
the licensed guides, all of whom are
professional hunters, were members of
the company. The name will be feat
ured on their stationery and in the
company’s national advertising cam
paign this winter.
FRESHMAN PARTY AND
IE GREAT STUFF
The Freshmen initiation party of
1927-28, given last evening by the
upper classmen of the Seward High
School was a success in every way,
possibly not for the Fresnies, but for
those officiating..
The affair commenced with a par
ade which started at the high school
building, down Main street, around
the “traffic cops” a number of times,
back up the street to the school. It
was the greatest parade witnessed in
the city for some time. The Fresh
ies wore green dunce caps. Guy
Manthey led the procession, beating
a tatoo on his “six cylinder, sound
less” drum, the upper classmen rid
ing behind in two cars. A good-sized
crowd witnessed this parade.
After retiring to the school build
ing, it was found that the Freshmen
iwere in a bad state of constitution,
!soa remedy, consisting of castor oil,
bread and a few laxative bills in the
form of green peas, was applied with
good results. To round up the dirty
^ork, the Freshmen were asked to
clean up the floor, during which
time each one of them was obliged
to make a speech in the form of “I
love This and that, him or her.”
Dancing was indulged in for the
rest of the evening until refresh
ments were served in plentiful quan
tities of a most nourishing and deli
cious kind. Then a little more danc
ing, and the crowd began to dwindle
away.
Now, the Freshmen can justly
class themselves as high school stu
dents, without comment from their
superiors.
