SCHOOL, HOSPITAL, PAVING
Which shall \vc have? All, or
none? Seward can have all three
projects, because tley are all on
application. It remains only for
the electorate to show approval
by voting favorably in the com
ing special election October 14.
An unfortunate factional dis
pute has arisen in Seward in re
cent weeks over the priority of
school raid hospital. The matter
of priority can be settled after
election. The priority of need
should not hold up any one or all
projects at this critical time.
The immediate need for addi
tional school facilities must be
apparent to everybody in Sew
ard. and more especially to those
parents who have children hous
ed outside the school building.
The School Board is asking that
the school be moved into num
ber one place on the priority list
which is now held by the hos
pital. There is little doubt that
the hospital group will recognize
the school’s right to this place by
virtue of extreme need. But the
hospital plans should not be cast
aside completely when it is pos
sible by a single election to ob
tain both projects.
As for street paving: it can al
so be included in the election
now. and built at a later date,
next year or even the year after.
To "get under the wire" for
appropriations from Conress, all
proposed construction must be
applied for NOW, so that funds
w ill be appropriated. The matter
of priorities can be settled by the
simple process of sending a letter
from the Mayor and City Coun
cil to the Director of Public
Works.
Seward has been behind on
obtaining Federal assistance sev
eral times, simply because we
have been too slow. Let's not
miss the boat this time. Vote
YES far ALL THLEE projects —
school, hospital, paving — then
make it plain to the City Council
which should com'’ first, by pub
lic hearing if necessary, or an
other vote.

Three Music Artists
Due Next Week
Nut oik*, but three, celebrated
artists will be heard on the op
ining program of the 1J52 53
Alaska Music Trail concert se
ries on Saturday, October 4, at
b pan. in the Methodist Church,
sponsored by the Seward Con
cert Association.
A trio with Bella Urban, Luigi
Silva and Maxim Schapiro play
ing violin, cello and piano, offers
almost unlimited musical enjoy
ment. Often the violinst takes
the lead in the performance and
plays the star part of the ensem
ble, but with this group especi
ally formed for introducing this
famous kind of music to Alaska
audiences of the AMT, eacii in
strument will share equally in
presenting the beautiful and
well known music of Mozart,
Tschaikowsky, Handel (arranged
by Halvorsen) and Grieg.
Especially popular is the vio
lin and cello playing with a
background of the piano to re
echo the singing melodies and
exciting crescendos of the strings.
Luigi Silva and Maxim Scha
piro are coming as old friends
because of former tours in tlie
North where they have many
warm friendships. Both artists
have made great strides in their
respective careers as world fa
mous concert ariisLs since last
here. Bela Urban, a young Hun
garian American, is recognized
for his successful New York re
citals in Town Hall and Carnegie
Hall v here he received the high
est acclaim from the critics. He
has appeared in the large music
centres as soloist with symphony
