GENUINE SPORTSMEN
A genuine sportsman is one who not only knows how
to win gracefully, but how to lose uncomplainingly with
out trying to shift the responsibility for failure upon
someone or somethng else.
The sporting attitude toward life is one of the sound
est of philosophies. We want the Seward High School
basketball teams which leave Seward tomorrow for An
chorage to win, of course, but we want them to come
home with the same reputation they leave with, a good!
bunch of sports.
Give the best you have, boys and girls, that’s good
enough for us, and remember, those of us who can’t go,
will be silently rooting for you to bring home the bacon.
WHO MAKES THE SACRIFICE?
Following an exhaustive inquiry Secretary of Com
merce Chapin announces that thru the “share the work”
plan approximately 5,000,000 men have secured employ
ment. But he did not point out that this sharing was a
sacrifice by labor to help their fellowman whjle high-sal
aried corporation officials gave up nothing and equally
high salaried employees of the government merely yield
ed 8 1-3 per cent under pressure of Congress.
As the full history of the depression unfolds itself
it is,a* significant fact that all sacrifices, even-unia bear
ing tax burdenryhave come from the farmer andlaborer,
including the white-collared worker.

of Seldovia, was unanimously chos
en. ' J

duct future meetings of the De
mocratic party, and to take charge
immediately of this and all future
correspondence.

Shortley.
Mr. Morris and ahrdteutaoinini
. Mr. Shortley and Mr. Morris are
both business men of Seldovia, and
iMr. Hart has held a position for
