LEGIONNAIRES TO
RENEW WORK AID
FUTURE CITIZENS]
The American Legion, Seward |
Post No. 5, welcomed the return of'
Adjutant Glenn Rogers, from Moose
Pass, at its regular bi-monthly
meeting last evening.
Mr. Rogers, superintendent of the
Seward Public Schools, also is the j
director of the Legion-Community
band and he said that he hadi
heard the band practice and sta-i
ted that he was pleased and amaz- j
ed at the progress the band had:
made during the summer. He ex
pressed himself as being highly
congratulatory to Fr. Merril Sulz
man, who has directed the band,
and to the individual members of |
the band for their accomplishment |
Rogers predicted that it would *be1
but a short time before the band
would be ready for public appear
ances.
As a part of the business mat
ters to be dealt with the Post mem- j
bers were informed that a deficit!
of $5.80 for the Fourth of July cele- !
bration expense had been incurred. I
It was voted to make up the deficit
from the Legion fund.
A communication -was read from
the Seward Chamber of Commerce
congratulating the Seward Legion
aires for the efficient manner which
the entertainment features for the
five visiting destroyers of the Uni
ted States Navy were handled.
An appeal was made by the Post
Commander to the Legionaires that
they sign up eight more members.
If this is done, he declared, the Post
will top the membership standing in
the Alaska Department of the Am
erican Legion.
The Legion members decided at
the meeting that they would renew
their Americanization work and in
regard to this work they stated that
they would help aliens who are de
sirous of becoming United States
citizens. The Legionaires will help
citizen applicants make out papers
and help future citizen in any man
ner they can. It was announced
that any citizen-applicant, or per
son who had yet filed his applica
tion, that if they wanted any aid,
that they call upon Post Command
er L. J. Chilberg, and they will be
given all possible aid. It was de
clared that Chilberg has been do-i
ing considerable work of this nature
in the past and his services would
be of inestimable value to help in
the Americanization work.
After last night’s meeting ad
journed tne Legionaires indulged in
their usual “skoffing up.”
