EXCURSION TO
 KENNECOTT IS
 HUGE SUCCESS

The excursion to Kennecott on Sunday morning was n decided sue cess and the large crowd who accom- Danied the ball team to the interior enjoyed the trip and are enthusiastic in their praise of the hospitable treat ment accorded them by the people of Kennecott and Mccarthy. Immediate. ly upon arrival at Kennecott the guests were taken in charge by Gen, eral Manager Yielding and his eff cient staff of officials. Arrangements had been made to take care of about fifty of the excursionists, the balance going to Mccarthy as soon as the game was over. Here they were met by a reception committee and the keys of the town turned over to them, The hotels, rooming houses 'and prt- yate homes provided qaurters for all. During the evening a dance was giv- en at A. B. hall and everybody had a royal good time.
 The train service was excellent and much credit is due R. J. DeLeo and the crew for the satisfactory manner in which the large crowd was handled. A special took those stopping at Ken necott to Mccarthy for the dance and returned with them later.
 On the homeward trip the visitors were given an opportunity to stop at Strelna and meet Mir. and Mrs. V. J. Dwyer and stop was also made at Chitina for about fifteen minutes in order to visit with friends there.
 The special was in charge of Con ductor Walt Downing, with Engi- neer Tommy Burchette at the en- zine throttle p. McCafferty acted as fireman and George Steele and Tim Eckstrom as brakemen.
 The run up was made in fine time, though the engine picked up at Chitina developed a leaky tube some place that delayed things for a few minutes on two occasions.
 The return trip likewise was made in fine time but q hot box just above Mile If caused slight delay. hose was quickly fastened to the smoking box and the run to Cordova completed with water playing on the offending wheel.
 There were 222 passengers on the train going up and PAS on the return trip quite a few passengers being picked up at Chitina and other places on the return.
 On the outward trip, twenty-seven joined the excursionists at Miles ' and IA. Five more were picked up at Mile 55
