NAVAL ENGINEERS
 INSTALLING NEW
 ENGINE AT RADIO
SIX OR EIGHT MEN FROM THE BREMERTON NAVY YARD
 ON WAY TO SEWARD

ten horsepower semi-deisel en- zine is being installed at the local naval radio station, replacing a 25- horsepower gas engine, which is now obsolete. This means great saving in fuel, George Norgard, mechanician, who with his running mate, G. K. Holtzman. electrician, are once more back in Seward from the Bremerton Navy Yard, making their annual trip to the naval radio stations in the Ter ritory. Both arrived in Seward last week on the steamer Yukon and will be busy here for at least a month. They plan departing from Seward for St. Paul island, on the next westward trip of the Starr. During their visit to the city last year they remained here for a month and made many friends who warmly welcome them back.
 MT. Norgard said in all probability | there would be other work or changes in their line, which they will make prior to their departure. It is be- lieved a crew of six or eight men from the Public Works Department, Bremerton Navy Yard, will arrive on the next steamer from the south.
 These men are making trip to the various stations doing the neces- sary building and general building re- pair work They will do considerable work at the local station, including the installation of a heating system l for the buildings, with hot and cold water, etc. The stoves also will in all probability be thrown into the discard.
 ! Leaving Seward the engineers will go to Dutch Harbor on the Starr, boarding a revenue cutter there di- rect for the island. A six watt tube transmitter will be installed at the St. Paul station, replacing a 30 watt arc transmitter. The arc is now ob- solete with the introduction of the tube transmitter. In this replace ment 75-horsepower engine will be dismantled and shipped to Cordova, where it will be set up at the radio station at Mile fl.
 Following the completion of their work on the island the radio men will l oo hooly +o D,,+ob uorhor opd ;oc+o 500 watt tube transmitter. They will then proceed to Wood Island and make their annual inspection of the station there. making whatever repairs are necessary. No new work is contemplated at the Wood Island station this year. The Sitka station will be the last one visited. No new work is contemplated here.
