SEASON PRESENTED
LAST NITE TO NAVI
The social event of the sea
son took place last night at the

Captain Hunter is reported hav

fair and a fitting expression and
example of the good will exist
| ing here between . the town’s
people and the Navy personnel.”
Captain Quinlan, who was seen
almost constantly on the floor,
again expressed his desire to re
turn to Seward and the hope
that the Chief of Naval Opera

of the Fleet to Seward each
year on their annual summer
cruise
A number of passengers from
the SS. Yukon were present and
helped to enliven the party. Ma
yor McMullen disported some
agile steps. The orchestra, with
Mrs. Elbert Kunz at the piano,
Hawkins at the violin, Stroup on
the saxophone and “Chris” Chris
tiensen from the Wasmuth help
ing out on the drums, played to a
packed house.
Interviewed this morning, a
member of the younger set who
does not want his identity dis
closed stated that he had never
seen a larger or more congenial
tunr-out at a dance in Seward.
