ADMIRATION DUE TO U. S. SIGNAL CORPS
A few years ago Point Barrow, farthest north point of
Uncle Sam’s domain was without a wireless station or out
side communication of any kind whatsoever during their
long winter, with the exception of a few dog team trips up
the coast and one or two vessels during six months of the
year.
Today Point Barrow is world-renowned. There Ser
geant Stanley R. Morgan and his wife, Mrs. Morgan toiled
with sorrow in their hearts, but with the highest discipline
and adherence to their code, to inform the world of the pass
ing of Will Rogers and Wiley Post.
Sergeant Morgan is in charge of the U. S. Signal Corps
station at Barrow, and during the recent work of transmitt
ing the story of the tragic accident to two of the world’s most
famous men, Mrs. Morgan was of especial assistance.
Together they kept in constant touch with the Signal
Corps system throughout Alaska and speeded the opportuni
ties for the airplanes of various companies to get to Barrow.
As an example of the value and estimable character of
the service rendered by the U. S. Signal Corps in Alaska,
the Barrow affair will be chronicled in the history of radio
in Alaska, as the greatest single happening meriting work
of recognition.
Barrow alone is not entitled to the plaudits of an appre
ciative Territory, as the various other stations located at
Kotzebue, Nome. Fairbanks, Anchorage, Ruby, Nulato and
others, were instructed by headquarters to keep in constant
touch while the bodies of Post and Rogers were there and
enroute outside.
To the entire system of the U. S. Signal Corps thruout
Alaska, we extend congratulations. They deserve the fin
est commendation for their work which our government
may bestow upon them. Their work is never through and
they continue to carry on in a hundred different ways.
It keeps money at home to meet the taxation required
for municipal maintenance and needed improvements.

(Continued From Page One)
Young said that Crosson, his great
work ended, would not continue,
but with his crew would fly his plane
back North to Fairbanks. However
Crosson changed his mind at the
last minute and accompanied them
south.
Sorrowing; Had Little Say
Crosson was sorrowing deeply ov
er the death of Post and Rogers,
and had little to say.
•Boys; I just haven’t anything
much to say". He was silent when
asked if he warned the two fam
ous men from making the flight to
Barrow. 'I just bade them farewell”,
he finally said, with great feeling.
Comes in From Vancouver
Crosson, piloting the speedy El
ectro of the PAA, swooped down
before the crowd of mourners at
the field here and taxied into the
hangar. They were immediately
surrounded by state and city police,
also the Marine Corps.
Badly Mutilated
Wiley Post’s face bore a gash ov
er the left eye and other small
scratches, in addition to broken
limbs, a source inside the hangar
said, which also described Rogers’
face as a pitiful sight, and must
have been crushed in in the crash.
Ceremony at Vancouver
At Vancouver, Alderman Tom
Wilkinson for the mayor, who was
out of the city said ‘On behalf of
his Worship The Mayor, the city
council and citizens, we pay tribute
to the illustrious dead. Canada
mourns the great loss America has
suffered."
