KODIAK IS RUNNING
SHORT OF 3.2 BEER AND
SHIP'S GREW IS SAD
What is regarded as one of the
l major mysteries in Kodiak mar
| ine history w?s the story told by
I Lord Biglewater of the U. S. S.
Discoverer, U. S. Coast and Geo
detic Survey, when the vessel
touched Kodiak recently to begin
her summer season’s work. While
admonishing reporters that the
mystery was as baffling to him as
to anyone, the Lord nevertheless
recounted his observations and left
the affair, so to say, up in the air.
“The mystery”, said the Lord,
hauling his keel up on the beach
| and bending 10 hitches and a half
i around the nearest palm tree, “is
i why the Discoverer does not run
over to Seward first on coming to
this quarter of the globe- Here;
we've been as long as three days;
out of sight of land and the taste:
of 3.2 is almost gone. None in1
Kodiak and plenty in Seward.”
Several theories were put foi
ward by helpful reporters who
flocked around the vessel as she
warped in, on, above and around
the dock. One of them blamed tlie
Alaska Legislature. Another men
tioned earthquakes. A third put:
forward the theory that the Gulf
eddy from the Japanese current j
was spinning the wrong direction.!
The interview7 was rapidly degen
erating into blue funk when John
Silver, Vice Strawboss in Charge of j
the Navigation Department, made j
his appearance.
“Well, boys,” he cheered, “back
at the old stand. Now, if we only
had last year’s Chief Greeter,
Musclebound Quinn, to conduct
the usual good-will tour of the city,
we would be all set. But do the
best you can without him.”
The crew, to a man, leaped a
ahore and charged the dance hall,
where a reception was in progress.
Present were 99.2 of the local popu
lace, the Four Hundred included.
Introductions were rapid if incom
plete, and soon the social whirl was
on.
Inquiries made by the Gateway’s
Kodiak correspondent, later the
same day, revealed that one of the
reasons the Discoverer has not
come to Seward as yet is that Chief
Tip-Tapper Anderson has a new set
of minions and is tutoring them
very carefully toward the proper
appreciation of Alaska and particu
larly of his shipmates.
In the meantime, a look-out has
been posted on Caine’s head to
forewarn the Sewardites of the ap
proach of the Discoverer.
Anchorage reports several more
earthquakes yesterday.
