AS GOOD AS THE BEST
For many a night we have been listening in to the
radio programs and radio announcers from all parts of
the United States, including Alaska stations, and have de
cided that J. P. Hannon, announcer and broadcaster for
the Anchorage station—KFQD—has as good a voice if
not better than any of the many at the “mikes” m the
States. It is a certainty, as his pleasant, precise and clear
enunciation is far above the average.
An Anchorage correspondent to The Gateway writes
that the Anchorage broadcasting station, the “Voice of the
Golden North,” and our good friend J. P. Hannon have
installed much new equipment, bringing the station up
to the standard of many in the States. With this new
apparatus the programs should and are coming in excel
lent in Seward. .
One feature the Anchorage station sponsors is the all
request program and if Seward people will just drop a
line or telephone call to the station, making known then
requests, such numbers will be dedicated as desired.
Several long distance calls have come in to the An
chorage station from as far north as Nenana, all stating
that the reception was excellent. The other night a re
quest came in from Nome and nightly sees the number of
requests increase from all parts of the Territory.
With winter coming on and the new regulations of the
Federal Radio Commission, it will probably be imperative
that KFQD go cn the air six hours every day. If such is
the case, several hours of this time will probably be dis
patched dining the daytime, giving Alaska housewives
a good chance to learn about the various commodities
some enterprising merchant has to offer her.
This is not said to hand out a platter of “bologna”
but solely with the idea of awakening Alaskans to the
fact they may be overlooking a citizen of the Northland
who some day will be leaving us in response to a “call
from the States,” also to properly give credit to one wdio
long has strived to assist and entertain you and I.
EXCELLENT NEW ALASKA MAP
The Gateway is in receipt of a copy of Alaska Map A,
scale 80 miles to the inch, \\tfrich has just been issued by
the Department of the Interior. The map, compiled by
the Alaska branch from all available authentic sources,!
chiefly from maps of the United States Geological Sur- j
vey and the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, is in line
with the government's desire to provide accurate infor
mation of the Territory for the benefit of those interest
ed. It is a timely edition in view of the fact of the pres
ent indications of widespread interest in Alaska.
The Gateway is informed that the general public is
at liberty to reproduce, for any legitimate purpose, any of
the maps or other publications of the Geological Survey,
credit, of course, being given to the Survey for the in
formation used. However, if any advertising or other
matter is added to the map, it should be made plain that
the base map only is the work of the Geological Survey.
# Copies of Alaska Map A may be obtained from the
United States Department of the Interior, Geological
Survey, Washington, D. C.
Russia will now pay workers according to their abil

Local golf is playing havoc with the magpies. One
magpie quit her mate after she had sat all summer on the
golf balls he had snitched off the course.
President Hoover might have received a few pointers
by consulting American heiresses on the ultimate of “no
