Because of the change in the Al
aska Steamship Co., schedule, made
necessary by the sinking of the S.
S. Aleutian, the time of departure
of Richardson Highway Transpor
tation Co., stages from Fairbanks to
Chitina has been changed.
The revised schedule calls for
the stages to leave Fairbanks at 3
p. -m. Wednesdays instead of Thurs
days. Thus tourists going over the
highway can board the southbound
boat at Cordova on Sundays. As
only two boats are on the south
western Alaska run now they will
'eave Seward on Saturdays instead
of Sundays, as was originally plan
ned.
Earlv in August, when the Ala
meda is placed on' the southwestern
om and sailings from Seward are i
made on Sundays’ the transporta
tion company will have its stages
[cave Fairbanks Thursdays.
MUCH WATER RUNNING
The exceedingly heavy snow-!
fall of last winter and the last!
few days of warm weather and j
an unusually heavy flow of water j
Interior have combined to cause j
in the streams, endangering the
bridges and railroad tracks, as
wwell as preventing fshiermen:
from making successful catches j
with hook and line.
John Slater, well known local
citizen, departed today for Moose ;
Pass where he w7ill spend the
coming week.
Volney Richmond, president of
the Northern Commercial Co., |
will arrive in Seward Saturday
from the Interior enroute to his
3eattle office.

WASHINGTON, June 19. (/P)—
Round airplanes may figure in
the future of aviation if a com
munication just received by the
aeronautics branch of the de
partment of commerce is an in
dication.
An inventor writes that he has
filed a patent on the idea of
spherical planes based on the
theory that this is the best shape
for speed and general efficiency, j
He informs the editor of “Domes
tic Air News” that if he:is wrong
then “golf ball should be square
and fish should swim sideways.”
OLD J. P. HIMSELF
J. P Hannon, former Seward City
clerk, and secretary of the Cham
ber of Commerce, radio wizard and J
“what have you”, who left these j
confines months ago to take up his
•psidence at Anchorage as office
manager of the Evans Jones Co.,
was an arrival last evening as a
witness in a case before the local
term of court. Hannon, on Thurs
day, joins the staff of the Eklutna |
Power Co., which new concern is j
opening up offices in Anchorage.
Mrs. Hannon and children are very
v/ell, John reports, and all like An
chorage immensely. It was Seward’s j
loss and Anchorage’s gain when
this fine family decided to move.
CLEANLINESS and the best of
meats our motto. Fry-Bruhn’s.
