The bride, white of hair, stoops
over her cane,
Her footsteps, uncertain, need
guiding.
While down the church aisle,
with a wan toothless smile,
The groom in a wheel chair
comes riding.
And who is this elderly couple
thus wed? !
You’ll find when you’ve closely
explored it,
That here is that rare, most
conservative pair
Who waited ’til they could af

Alaska Lions Convene
in Gateway City
(Continued from Page 1)
The Seward club has under
taken and maintain a number of
praisworthy projects for the im
provement and betterment of
the city. One of the most valued
of these is an annual scholarship
of $500 awarded to a member
of the graduating class of the
Seward High School. The schol
arship committee is comprised
of three members, and has been
effective for the past three years.
In addition to the scholarship,
a student loan fund was set up
under which any graduate of
Seward High School may bor
row up to $750, to be used by
him in the pursuit of higher
learning. The loan is made with
out interest, to be repaid after
the recipient has entered the
earning field.
The scholarship fund was in
augurated in 1946. designed to
encourage deserving young peo
ple to continue their education.
The award is not based on scho
lastic standing alone, the finan
cial need of the student receiv
ing greatest consideration.
The students loan fund was
made available in 1948, when a
gift of .$250 was made to the
club, to be followed each year
with an additional amount un
til a total of $1250 is reached.
The donor stipulated that this
money was to be set aside foi
the express purpose of estab
lishing the loan fund to further
assist and encourage the young
people of Seward in the pursuit
of higher education.

C of C Letter To
School Board
(Continued from Page 1)
because the entire Board pro
gram cannot be obtained at this
time, is in the Chamber’s opin
ion a short sighted policy and
decision.
We would appreciate taking
this matter before the parents
of Seward, for their reaction,
and see if the School Board
could not be induced to alter
their stand in this matter. To
make clear the issue, we offer
some of the facts as outlined by
the Governor to the Mayor of
Seward.
A gymnasium, swimming pool
and auditorium could be ap
proved for immediate construc
tion, of a 50 per cent cost basis
to the People of Seward. The
Alaska Public Works Agency
to erect the building, paying
the total cost of same, and when
completed would turn same
over to the City, taking their
j notes or bond for 50 per cent
of the cost. This 50 per cent
due the Federal Government
for the project would be paid
for from receipts of the City
Sales Tax and the Territorial
Cigarette Tax, without addition
al cost to the People. However,
if it were necessary to issue
City bonds to cover the City’s
portion of the cost, it would be
a good investment for the citi
zens.
We ask the People of Seward
to consider this matter care
fully and make known to the
School Board, City Council,
newspaper, and Station KIBH
their wishes on this subject. The
People of Seward have claimed
that we do not receive our por
tion of Public Funds. Perhaps
our attitude of not giving due
consideration to the subject, or
relying on the judgment of small
groups, is the reason why we
do not progress and receive our
portion of Public Funds. Let’s
publicize this matter and get
the People’s wishes carried out.
