WELCOME TO SEWARD GOVERNOR!
In behalf of the citizens of the city The Gateway ex
tends a hearty welcome to Gov. George A. Parks, who is
a brief visitor in Seward today. The Chamber of Com
merce tendered Governor Parks a luncheon at noon to
day where all had occasion to personally meet the popular
Alaska Executive.
Your visits are altogether too far between Governor;
also much too short. ’
A REGULAR FELLOW SAY GUIDES
We would like Mr. W. A. Spickler of San Pedro, who
has just completed a big game hunt Westward, to know
that two or three members of his party, the guide and
others, have informed this paper that he is a regular fel
low on the trail and they hated to see the last day of his
hunt arrive. Coming from chaps of this type Mr. Spickler
can well feel proud for these hardy Alaskans are sincere
in their fellowship and praise.
BROTHER NOEL LOST, RALPH CARRIES ON
The spirit of Lindbergh carries on; Alaska feels in
tensely proud of Ralph Wein who, in the absence of his
brother Noel, is making the airmail trip to Nome from
Fai rbanks via way stations.
With less than ten hours of solo flying, his brother
lost somewhere in the vast wastes of the Arctic, this
young man accepted the responsibility of seeing that the
mail arrives on time and that the firm’s contract is ful
filled. /
Buy all the poppies you can today. It is a very worthy
cause.
The Chinese want a national anthem. We might spare
that one of ours with the funny line about a “sweet land
of Liberty’’. ____
ANNUAL HIGH SCHOOL i
PICNIC YESTERDAY
Yesterda^ the high school students
and faculty had an ideal day for the :
annual picnic which was held thi3 |
year in the woods off the main road
| some distance out of Seward.
Cars donated and driven by several i
Scwardites conveyed the party (and j
the lunch) to a trail leading from I
' !
the toad, and the picnicers walked in j
for some distance till a clearing wa3 |
reached. Here the boys played j
i “scrub” until a lunch of beans, sand ;
wiches, pickles, olives, coffee and j
pie was served nearby on a minia- j
ture beach. Then the surrounding1
! woods were explored by some-Mc
McEwen went bear hunting and brjt
back a porcupine-while others play I
ed the portable victrola.
Everyone had a fine time and the
students wish to thank the era ow- j
neis who so generously donated tbeb'j
seiwices.
