• By Mrs. J. C. Green)
if When the giant silver bird
“Land of Soviet” came to rest
yesterday afternoon in Resur
rection Bay, it brought foui
fliers who had been journeying
since 5 o'clock in the morning;
very hungry and tired.
The four fliers aboard the
“Land of Soviet” rank as follows:
Commander and First Pilot A. A
Shestakov, who was born in Bend
ery. Russia. The 2nd Pilot Philip
Efimovich Bolotov is from Perm
Russia. Next in rank is Aero-Navi
gator Boris Basilievich Sterligov
whose home is Moscow. The me
, chanic, who likewise is the young
est of the group, is Dmitri Vissar
ionovich Fufaev of Orel. Russia.
Commander Shestakov, who is a
short man talked for the entire
party. He said, “I have experienced
nothing but bad weather since
starting on this tour, and of course
the responsibility of being in com
mand of such an undertaking rests
heavily upon me. But this is a
grand country and the people are
so hospitabe. The crew of the Che
lan was so kind to us at Unalaska,
and here in Seward everyone is so
good to us. I regret that the dense
fog has kept us from seeing every
thing about this beautiful country,
but most of our traveling has been
done while heavy clouds obscured
the view.”

offerings. Folks, don’* miss this potent
one. Be sure to drop in our store and
hear the little lady croon about her
extraordinary boy friend. Lend your
ears too to the swarm of top-notchers
that go with it . . . Jim Miller and
Charlie Farrell, whose lilting melodies
send shivers up your spine . . . Ben
Pollack, whose orchestra plays like
nobody's business. We'll be glad to
play all of these knock-outs for you on
the marvelous Victor Radio-Electrola.

EVERYBODY HELPED
It is particularly worthy of
note to mention the cooperation
and energy displayed by the
townsfolk, from the Mayor down,
who pulled on ropes and stuck
on the job throughout helping
to moor the monoplane.
Then to the Van Gilder Hotel
where comfortable rooms and a
hot bath awaited them; then
into civilian clothes and to the
Seward Grill where they lin
gered long over their coffee.
In the meantime two guards
had been posted to keep careful
watch over the plane owing to
the small local storm which had
whipped up the waters.
The approximate speed main
tained on the flight from Dutch
Harbor averaged 100 miles an
hour, stated Chief Pilot A. A.
Shestakox, one of the most noted
of Soviet flyers who, in 1925, es
tablished a record flight between
Moscow and Tokio. Mr. Shesta
kox is the commander of the
party which includes all civilian
fliers; Pilot Bolotof, Sterligof,
the navigator, and Fufaev, the
mechanic.
TIRED BUT HAPPY
Everyone of the men were tir
ed but very happy in having
successfully completed another
step of their long flight which
ends at New York from which
point the plane will be crated,
and with the crew, return home
by steamer. The condition of
the crew is splendid and opti

at Sitka for a day or two then
