Expedition Captain
Brings Ship Here
The U. S. S. Boxer, of the Bu
reau of Indian Affairs, spent
part of the week unloading sup
plies at Erskines dock for feder
al schools on the island. The
boat usually deliverr at ports a
round the island, but due
to trouble with auxiliary en
gines the supplies will be distri
buted this year from Kodiak.
Capt. E. L. Bush is complet
ing his 47th trip on the Boxer,
each trip averaging over 6000
miles. The boat this year loaded
materials at Dutch Harbor and
took them to Nome, loaded
there again and returned to Bris
tol bay, and then picked up their
last load for the trip south.
From Kodiak the Boxer goes
to Cordova and Juneau and wi l
have made over 8500 miles when
it gets to Seattle.
Just before Captain Bush
brought the Boxer north this
spring he had completed a 25,
000-mile trip in 5 months and
10 days with the Admiral Byrd
expedition to Little America.
According to Capt. Bush the
oak and copper riveted Boxer
dates back to Civil war days,
when it started out as a brigan
tine. In its next period it served
as a training ship for midship
men at Annapolis. After some
years of disuse it was brought to
the west coast and rebuilt for its
present service.
Capt. Bush started with the
Boxer on its present run which
he has made for 19 years. He
has only one complaint to make.
“I don’t get much time at
home,” he said.
