BATHING BEAUTY
CONTEST FOR 4TH
A bathing beauty review will be one
of the major attractions in Seward
on the Fourth of July. Plans are
under way for a girl’s swimming race
to be held, and according to reports,
the idea is appealing to the fair sex.
Never before have Alaska bathing
beauties been seen in review here.
The Mack Sennett girls have nothing
on Seward girls when it comes to
beauty and feminine atheletes.
Sponsors of the idea have suggest
ed a start be made with a dive off
the Ocean dock, racing to a mark on
the beach. The crowds will find
ample room on the beach to view the
! water events which will also include
! races for men and boys and canoe
and boat racing. For the bathing
. beauty review, Mr. and Mrs. Ells
worth have offered the use of their
automobiles.
