RED CROSS WORKERS ACTIVE
Foremost in rendering succor to the thousands of
homeless in Florida and bringing partial relief to the be
wildered and afflicted populace in their crushing mis
fortune, was the Red Cross. Hardly had the moan of the
hurricane died in the distance when corps of Red Cross
workers were entering the stricken zones. From chaos,
order is being brought about, but so tremendous was the
calamity which struck Florida down that it has been ne
cessary for the National headquarters of the American
Red Cross, to ask for assistance from all Chapters.
From the Pacific Division Manager of the American
Red Cross, a telegram was received yesterday by L. V.
Ray, chairman of Seward Chapter, A. R. C., stating the
disaster was of such magnitude as requiring assistance of
all chapters and on the request of the Governor the Red
Cross is extending relief for the entire devastated area.
The Seward Chapter is authorized to recieve contribu
tions and forward the same to the San Francisco office so
any citizen wishing to contribute may do so to Rev. T. P.
Graham, who is secretary of the local unit.
YOU AND I BOTH
We wonder how many Seward fistic fans would like
to be sitting in at the ring-side Thursday, at Philadelphia.
To see Dempsey and Tunney crawl thru the ropes; watch
them glare at one another; the nerve racking business of
seeing the gloves inspected; then laced on; then the
stools and buckets pulled thru the ropes and the trainers
slide off the platform and THEN THE BELL! SWEET
MAMA! Wouldn't yuh like tuh be there. OH BOY!

PASSES THRU SEWARD SATUR
DAY EN ROUTE TO KASHING
TON, D. C.
Mr. 0. J. Murie, field naturalist for
the Biological Survey of the Depart
ment of Agriculture arrived in Seward
Saturday and sailed on the Yukon for
Seattle en route to Washington, D. C.
He has been accompanied by Mrs.
Murie and his son on a long cruise.
They left Fairbanks May 25 and
went down the Tanana, up the Yukon
and then up Porcupine and old Crow
rivers to the headwaters.
For the past eight years Mr, Murie
has been engaged in a systematic
study of the natural history of Alaska
part of the time making an extensive
study of various species of bear anc
caribou. He has also banded mem
bers of migratory game birds, bj
catching the young and old birds anc
fastening a small aluminum bant
around the leg. Geese banded in A1
aska have been killed in all parts o
the Pacific Coast and thus the migra
tions have been mapped and studied
It is important in the life history o
birds to know not only of thus breed
ing habits but of their travels so a
to draft adequate laws for their prc
tection.

FIGHT RETURNS WILL
ARRIVE SEWARD AT
3:1 P. M. THURSDAY
DEMPSEY AND TUNNEY WILL
HAVE CROSSED GLOVES FOR
FIRST TIME AT THAT TIME
According to a dispatch from the
Associated Press, Seattle office, the
account of the Dempsey-Tunney cham
pionship battle, which will be fought
on Thursday of this week, wili start
arriving in The Gateway office at
3:40 p. m. The big fight starts in
Philadelphia at 5:40 p. m. Seattle
time. At that time Dempsey and Turn
ney will cross gloves for the first
time.
The last minute condition ot me
fighters, the size of the crowds, the
preliminaries, weather conditions,
and the innumerable other details will
start pouring into The Gateway office
long before the actual battle starts
at 3:40 p. m.
As was stated a few days ago f..r
the convenience of the local and out
of-town public, a telephone operator
will be stationed in The Gateway of
fice to answer queries and all the in
coming press until the end of ihe
fight will be published in the regular
Thursday evening issue of The Gate
way. No special edition will be is
sued. The paper, in all probabilities
will be late in getting off the press
but the public will have the satisfa:
tion of reading all the news together
until—shall we say, wThen "Tunney’s
hand is raised, heralding a new champ
or when Dempsey kayoes Tunney.
Wall street is betting two to one
on Dempsey which is a mighty good
barometer to follow. Here in Sew’ard
the majority seem to be for Tunney—
they want to see Tunney win—but
whether or not there is much Tunney
money about—ah, that’s another ques
tion! If Tunney wins he will prob
ably be the most popular champion
who ever wore the crown. On the
other hand the world is told that Mr.
Dempsey, now' that he is a free lance
and no more under the guidance of
Jack Kearns, plans to do a-lot of fight
ing after he mops up on friend Tun
ney. So it looks like the boxing fans
will have a run for their money in the
future.
Among the tests being carried out
at Anchorage by the railroad is that
of brick making. Building and fire
bricks both are being turned out, and
according to local information, the
test thus far has been very satisfact
ory.
