Looking Ahead!
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northfland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm faith
in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with
Alaskan progress can accomplish much. Looking ahead to still
greater things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one
way that a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pains
takingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and, that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”

SOLDIER CAGERS
ARRIVE TONIGHT
FROM ANCHORAGE
SEWARD FIVE UP AGAINST THE
TOUGHEST SERIES THIS
SEASON
“Nip” Johnson, center of the Seward
basketball team, was not on deck last
night at the long and final workout of
the local squad, owing to duty at the
Standard Oil plant. However, the
team was sent thru a practice game
with “Steamboat” Painter’s five, after
which Coach McEwan instructed them
in new plays, formation, and shoot
ing for the cage.
Coach McEwan stated last night, af
ter the workout, that he was not sat
isfied with the showing of his team,
and especially taken in comparison
with the flashy Soldier outfit which
arrives in Seward this evening from
Anchorage. The recent acquisition of
“spedball” Andreson has gone far in
bringing the Seward cagers up to a
standard not equalled before but the
Soldier team has been playing togeth
er all season and work like one uni
fied piece of machinery.
McEwan has six men to select from
to make up the first string lineup,
namely Johnson, Andresen, Ratliff,
Chya, Tinkler and himself. Looking
them over there sure is one sweet line
up. Who he will start off is unknown
today but his decision for the opening
game will be made this afternoon and
published in tomorrow’s isue of The
Gateway.
“Missouri” Dyer will take care of the
scoring and “Happy” Hopkins will do
the clocking.
Have you seen the Weekly Gateway.
FOUR GREAT fEARS
COUNT'EM
Fonr great fears accompany you from
your home to your work and remain
with you throughout the day—1
1* The fear of your family being
left unprovided for;
2. The fear of a penniless old age
for yourself;
3. The fear of Joss of income from
total or partial disablement;
4. The fear of losing what you
have accumulated.
Would it be worth anything to you to have these
fears eliminated from your life-^-to know that you
were shielded by a complete circle of protection?
A line to us will bring you full details without com*
mitting you to any action.
