SEWARD ATHLETIC
CLUB FORMED
LAST NIGHT
The Seward basketball season was
successfully launched last evening at
the first meeting, which took place in
the high school building. An organ
ization named the Seward Athletic
Club was formed, officers of the club
named, the membership fee fixed and
plans discussed for the acquisition of
suitable quarters for the coming
games.
Burr Snyder was elected president
of the club, Dr. Roberts vice presi- !
dent and Louis Tinkler, secretary- 1
treasurer. The membership fee was I
placed at fifty cents per month, but
all donations will be accepted as no
one will be asked to contribute to the
upkeep of the club. Those members
present last night donated $1.00 each
starting things off with $19 in the
treasury.
Providing satisfactory arrangements
can be made, the Dreamland Hall will
be secured for the winter. Here will ;
meet the boy scouts, school boys and !
girls, and those who take an interest !
in athletics. The American Legion will '
be invited to use the club for their
meetings, thus helping in maintaining
a public hall for Seward.
Under the new organization will
come the management of the hall. It
is planned to let the school children
use it from four in the afternoon until
six, after which time the place will be
open to the grown-ups. When the boy
scouts are organized, they will meet
there during the winter months for
instructions in camp lore and other
exercises.
The total monthly upkeep of the
hall, providing it cannot be secured
for less than $50 a month, will be in
[ the neighborhood of $S5, and it will
only be through the cooperation of
everyone in town that this sum may
be raised.
To the majority of those present
.last night, the rental appeared quite
high, and fear was expressed that the
organization could not meet the pro
posed obligation,. Ways and means
were discussed at some length, the
outcome of which resulted in a mem
bership drive being sponsored, to be
gin today and lasting over a week.
Professor Guy Barnett, representing
the Seward Schools, stated he had
made an effort to secure the hall but
found he was unable to meet the de
mands. It was largely through his
efforts the Seward Athletic Club was
organized, in order to give the boys
and girls some pleasure thru the long
winter ahead.
Mel Holben, genial proprietor of the
Seward Grill, was the first man to
come forward last evening with an of
fer of aid. Mr. Holben has offered to
make a cash donation of ?5 a month
in order to see the organization a suc
cess. Mr. Holben has always been be
hind every movement for the public
good in Seward, and his offer was cer
tainly one to be proud of.
Another meeting will be held some
time next week, at which everyone
is expected to be present. Time and
place of meeting will be announced
later. Meanwhile when “Louie” comes
around writh a membership card, be
liberal.
Woman’s Club Meeting
The Seward Woman’s club will
meet tomorrow afternoon in the
apartments of Mrs. Ed. Kurtz, in
the Arcade building, at 2:30 o’clock.
A full attendance ’’s requested for
the election of officers will be in
order.

Good Increase In Fox
Industry Cook Inlet,
Says Dr. C. A. Pollard
There has been a good increase in
the fox industry in the Cook Inlet
district, this season, according to Dr.
C. A. Pollard, of Anchorage, who re
cently passed through Seward follow
ing a trip to his farm on Heska island.
At the present, however, he stated
there was little market for breeders
but that it was his belief when the
fox farmer gets down to business and
sells pelts, will be satisfied with a les
ser income, the industry in general
will be materially benefitted.
