Dr. E. Lester Jones, head of the
coast and geodetic survey, has
named the highest peak of Mans
field peninsula for Robert Barron,
known at Juneau as “Buster” Bar
ron, one of the first American avi
ators to lose his life in the great
war. He was a son of James T.
Barron, head of the Thlinket Pack
ing company of Funter bay.
The Portland Oregonian contains
the following special, of date June
12: .
“The name of Robert Barron, of
Portland, Ore., cadet aviator of the
United States army air service, the
first American aviator killed at the
outbreak of the war, is to be per
petuated as the name of the highest
peak on Mansfield peninsula, South
eastern Alaska.
“This announcement was made to
day by Colonel E. Lester Jones,
chief of the survey. This peak,
which is of 4,000 feet altitude, will
be known as Mount Robert Barron.
Robert Barron, as a cadet aviator,
was killed near Philadelphia, while
trying to save fellow aviators from
destruction. He was the son of J.
T. Barron of Portland.
“ ‘The naming of this peak after
the first of America's aviation heroes
is a tribute not only to the young
man who gave his life in an act of
extraordinary heroism, cut is like
wise a tribute to the young man’s
distinguished father, who has done
more, perhaps, than any one else
for the development of that part
of Alaska overlooked by Mount Bar
. ron,’ said Colonel Jones, in making
,the announcement. The peak over
looks Funter bay and the town of
! Funter.”
GEN. PERSHING
PRAISES K. OF C.
FOR GOOD WORK
PARIS.—Acknowledgment of the
service rendered to the soldiers by
the Knights of Columbus has been
sent by General Pershing to the
headquarters of the organization
here. Writing to the overseas com
missioners, Lawrence O. Murray and
Edward L. Hearn, General Pershing
stated:
“I wish to express through you
to the Knights of Columbus my ap
preciation and that of the officers
and men under my command for the
valuable services rendered by your
organization to the American Ex
peditionary Force.
“The active work of your organ
ization in France, begun early in
1918, was well under way by the
spring of that year, and has been
increasing in scope ever since. Be
fore the cessation of hostilities its
workers were attached to many of
the combat divisions and recreation
huts had been opened in the prin
cipal American concentration cen
ters. Numerous commanding of
ficers have commended the devotion
to duty of your personnel, and have
testified to their popularity and
helpfulness among the troops whom
they served.
“During the armistice, it has been
particularly active in the promotion
of athletics, a most valuable factor
for. health and contentment. It has
also contributed to the success of
the army entertainment program by
generous appropriations for musical
instruments and equipment of sol
dier shows; has increased its gen
eral recreational activities, helping
materially to maintain the morale
of the army during the inevitable
period of waiting to go home.”
