DISTRICT IS ENTICING
Was Recent Visitor In Seward On
Board Canada of Vancouver
On Way To Seattle.
An Alaskan invasion is planned by
David H. Bunch, of Seattle, who for
a number of years past has been
prominent in the Puget Sound City
in handling and installing radio
equipment. Mr. Bunch was a brief
visitor in Seward last week while
the former North Sea mine sweeper,
Canada of Vancouver was in port.
Mr. Bunch was the operator on the
vessel which had just arrived in Sew
ard from Japan on his way to Seat
tle.
The Canada of Vancouver, and the
Imbucaria, which also arrived here
from Japan, were both equipped with
powerful sets by Mr. Bunch. Under
the provisions of the contract with
ihe Argentine, government, to which
country the vessels were under char
ter, Mr. Bunch was instructed to take
charge of one of the sets during the
trip. Arthur Elliot, another Seattle
young man, was in charge of the
Imbucaria radio outfit. Mr. Bunch is
a son of John H. Bunch, traffic man
ager of the Alaska Steamship Co.
The Alaska field, particularly thru
this region, looks very enticing, Mr.
Bunch said, and he is under the im
pression considerable radio business
can be procured here. With this in
mind, he stated to the Gateway, tha*.
he planned returning to Seward early
next year at which time he would
introduce his line.
During the trip to Japan. Mr. Bunch
said he practically relayed all traf
fic for the President boats the
Grant and the Jefferson. For three
nights he was in touch with station
! KPH, San Francisco, the fi :st night
while out 3,000 miles the second
night from 3,350 and the thud night
from 3,700 miles. These distances
were worked on 600 meters. O.i SO
meters he worked from latitude 49,
longitude 170E, an approximate 2,200
miles from the shores of the United
States. During the day at one time,
he as in touch with the Westing
In u-e experiment stitior in Newark,
N J., " 000 miles awv.\
Own* to the small jf the ves
sels, quarters for the radio operators
were extremely small, much more so
than is generally found. Due to the
powerful sets installed on both of
the boats, every inch of space had
to be utilized. Aside from the space
occupied by the equipment, there was
just enough remaining space for the
operator to set down in. All mach
ines were within reach from his
stool. Three men standing up would
fill the unoccupied space, including
the operator. This wras very uncom
fortable during rough weather. Mr.
Bunch said, for it was impossible
to remain seated and work at the
same' time. Therefore for hours at
a time both operators were forced to
send and receive, standing up.

I -
| COPY OF 1926 PUBLICATION RE
CEIVED FROM WASHINGTON
OFFICE BY GATEWAY
A copy of The Current Tables of
the Pacific Coast for 1926, published
bv the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Sur
vey, Department of Commerce, has
been received by the Seward Gate
way from the Washington Printing
office.
The purpose of this publication is
to furnish information regarding cur
rents to the mariner, the engineer,
and the public generally. For a num
ber of years the tide tables issued
annually, in advance, by the Coast
and Geodetic Survey devoted a limit
ed amount of space to currents; but
the results of recent current surveys
and investigations have so greatly
increased our knowledge of the cur
rents as to make advisable a separ
ate publication devoted to the cur
rents.
In the preparation of these current
tables all available observations have
been used. In some cases, however,
the observations were insufficient for
obtaining final results, and as fur
ther information becomes available
it will be included in subsequent edi
tions of the current tables.
For the Canadian waters the cur
rent data given in these tables were
based on the publications of the Ca
nadian Tidal and Current Survey.
This edition of the Pacific Coast
Current Tables contains, in addition
to the predicted times of slack wa
ter heretofore published, predictions
of the times and velocities of
strength of current. This addition has
been deemed advisable for stations
on the Pacific coast because of the
large daily inequality in the current
velocity at these stations.
For 1926 the current information
will appear in the two following
forms:
1. Current Tables, Pacific Coast, No.
America, price, 10 cents.
2. Current Tables, Atlantic Coast, No.
America, price, 10 cents.
The tide tables for 1926 will ap
pear in three forms, as follows:
1. Tide Tables, United States and
Foreign Ports, price, 75 cents.
2. Tide Tables, Pacific Coast, re
printed from Tide Tables, United
States and Foreign Ports, price,
15 cents.
3. Tide Tables, Atlantic Coast, re
printed from Tide Tables, United
States and Foreign Ports, price,
15 cents.
A list of agencies of this survey
will be found in the first number for
each month of the Notice to Marin
ers, which is published weekly by the
Bureau of Lighthouses and the Coast
and Geodetic Survey. These agen
cies have for sale 4he Coast and Geo
detic Survey Current Tables, Tide
Tables, Charts, and Coast Pilots, and
they have for free distribution Chart
Catalogues and Notices to Mariners.
THE FUNNIEST THING!
The comedy-drama at the Liberty
Theater last night, was about the
funniest thing seen here for a long
time. One man laughed so hard that
he fell out of the seat into the isle.
The first part of the six reels was a
bit in places, but it soon blossomed
out into a continuous roar of laugh
ter. Helen Jerome Eddy and Theo
dore Roberts added another brick
to the tower of their fame as ac
tors.
The “Our Gang’’ comedy of two
[ reels that went with the main fea
| ture was also unusually good.
And among the interesting items
in the Pathe Review was the micro
scopical picture of the growth of
crystal, and the making of up-to-date
bread.
