CONTINUOUS ROUND OF ENTER PAYMENT AND HOSPITALITY CHARACTERISTIC OF ALASKANS
BEAUTY GRAcES FUNCTIONS
Nothing Overlooked to Impress Visi- tors With WhoIe-Hearted GoodfeI- lowship of Pretty Little Island


 since the visit of Anchorage Lodge No. 1851, B. P. o. E. delegation, no finer specimens could be found any, where, in the opinion of Exalted Rul- CT Carl Martin, who with H. H. Mo- Cutcheon, past exalted ruler and Lyle Larsen, secretary, returned to Seward yesterday from an initiatory trip which they will forever recall with happiness. Aside from the interest ing work of guiding ten candidates safely thru the channels of Elkdom, the royal hospitality and entertain ment extended them will never be forgotten.
 I'm certainly going to make ano- ther trip over there," stated Brother Larsen last evening, which just about sums up the friendly feeling they have toward Kodiak and it's residents.
 On Sunday night, November 7. when the s. s. Admiral Watson arrived at Kodiak from Seward, the Anchorage Elks were cordially greeted and wei comed by the Kodiak Elk delegation, comprised of Brothers Otto Kraft, H. ]. Hunt and Judge Stowe. They were then escorted to the Masonic hall which had been beautifully de- corated under the skillful direction of Brother H. O. White. There, where the candidates were breathlessly awaiting with eagerness, the coming ordeal, and amid the elaborate sur roundings, the lodge rituals officially began with the following officers oc- cupying the chairs.
 Carl E. Martin, exalted ruler; w. G. Neville, featuring knight; A. L. Roth, loyal knight; Lyle w. Larsen, secre- tary and esquire; H. o. White, inner guard; H. J. Hunt, tyler. The candi- dates were Vernon F. Hoffman, Chas E. Stark, Albert Kraft, Frederick Mahle, Louis Thompson, Chas A. Madison, Nels Christiansen, A. K. Hor- ner, Harry J. Grub and Fred A. Hen ton. Visiting Brothers were MT. Ne vile from Ketchikan; A. w. Roth, Se- attle Lodge No. 92, and MT. Grafton, school teacher at Kodiak and also a member of the Seattle lodge.
 After the meeting all adjourned to the Model cafe where a wonderful 12- course dinner was served Regard ing this dinner the Anchorage trio smacked their lips with much gusto
 
 in describing the menu Never was a better dinner in variety and taste served to them anywhere, they said Past Exalted Ruler H. H. McCutcheon during the course of the dinner, spoke interestingly, choosing as his topic, naturally, the B. P. o. Elks. Due to numerous outbursts of brilliant ora- tory, given at various times later, Brother McCutcheon was dubbed Uncle Joe Cannon of Alaska" and was thereafter introduced as such by Brother Neville. Then followed the history of the Order by Brother Lar sen. This good-natured gentleman stuffed with the best in the land, was in excellent spirits, it is related, and delivered his bit with a marvellous flow of English, rising to heights which even his intimates never be- fore suspected. Then Brother Neville, the live wire member from Ketchi- kan, rendered in melodious tenor voice, the very latest of New York

pace LO LHeHtioA at LulS pOluC LHdL Brother Neville was formerly mem Der or the Stanford University, 1914 15 football team. And, according to Brother Larsen, he looks 1t. Just what he meant by that remark the reader must judge for himself.
 Continuous Pleasure
 Then the dance! Oh, Boy! What wonderful time was enjoyed at the dance Sunday night. The Kodiak peo- pie had seen to every detail, not a thing had been overlooked, so in the face of their preparations, the affair was bound to be just what it was, the best and largest dance in attend ance which had ever been held in the beautiful and thriving island town. During the dance, W. E. Pitts, stew ard on the s. s. Admiral Watson, de- the Icebergs Nest Again" Three en- lighted all with a tenor solo "When cores were necessary before the crowd would permit MT. Pitts to retire. The Watson's orchestra were thanked particularly for their splendid music and efforts to please.
 That night the three Elks from An chorage were hospitably taken care of at the residences of Dr. Pryor and Brother Grub.
 Monday was repitition of the day previous, a continual round of plea sure, winding up with another fine dance in the evening. During the day the Anchorage Elks enjoyed a splen- did repast with Brother Otto Kraft and his charming wife.
 Praise for Doe Fawns
 An, the girls! Be sure and say something about thosee girls at Ko- diak," one of the Bills" said. "The girls over there are not only pretty but really beautiful and the many in- stances of their sincere efforts at hos pitality and entertainment was one of the outstanding recollections we took away with us. They are wonders!" As the Admiral vessel slowly pulled away from the Kodiak wharf on Mon- day, with the gentle tinkling ships orchestra playing, the departing Elks sang numerous selections among which were Aloha" "A Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight" He's A Jolly Good Fellow" the iceberg song, and also an original masterpiece, a brain storm of one of the trio, entitled, ''Will You be Waiting When We Re- turn This latter piece brought forth great gobs of crocodile tears from the multitude of Kodiak citizens on the dock who were waving farewell. The Bills" felt blue in having to leave so soon and from the reception and wonderful time accorded them, they feel that the Kodiak folk were reluctant to see them depart.
 In behalf of Anchorage Lodge, Mo- 1851, Secretary Larson, asks The Gateway to extend thanks to the citi- zens of Kodiak for the splendid time extended them and that he personally and he felt he was voicing the sen- timents of the rest of the Brothers is already looking forward to another visit to Kodiak. There is already much material there for another class, he said, and he for one, is going to go back. At the present time he es- inmates there are 32 members of the | B. P. o. Elks at Kodiak.

3 u SY DAY s
Purdue Baseball Squad
Drills for Big Week.

BIZ Times Special
LAFAYETTE, Ind, May l.
Overtime efforts are being exerted
by the Purdue baseball squad in
hitting practice in preparation for
its next Big Ten game, Monday
afternoon, with Wisconsin on Stuart
field. The Boilermakers have been
crashing the ball. but somewhat
erratically as te fourteen men left
on bases at Indiana will testify.
Against the Crimson, Purdue had
ample chances TO win. but failed to
produce solid blows when needed
The fielding Of the team has been
well up to standard, and the
miscues in the field have been few
and far between. Timely hitting
should put Lambert's nine back on
the winning pace which captured
six straight games early in the
season. The Boilermakers have
seven Big Ten games left on the
schedule. Two of them will be put
out OF the way next week. the first
on Monday, with Wisconsin. and the
second with Indiana on Friday at
Lafayette.
In between the two Big Ten tits
next week, Purdue will go to South
Bend for a game with the strong
Notre Dame nine.

Word Tunney Is Matched
With Dempsey Is Ex-
pected Shortly.
BY Paul W. White
United Press Ston CorresDondcnt


NEW YORK. May Having sue
cessfully roped, tied and aotherwise
manhandled the New York State
athletic commission. the amiable and
competent Tex Richard today went
ahead with plans for heavyweight
championship bout in which Jack
Dempsey will defend the crown.
The only difference between Rick
ards plans this time and those which
he and other promoters have had
heretofore is that now it appears
they will materialize.
Such miscellany as the place, the
time and the opponent have yet
to be decided upon, but the f1stic
cuessers in this community are
gambling that Dempsey will meet
Gene Tunney at the Yankee stadium
in the late summer.
While the commissioners. as usual
enmeshed in interior difficulties,
would still seem to favor the pa
tient Harry Wills as Dempsey
most suitable opponent, it is proba-
BILE the persuasive Richard can in
fluence them to approve Tunney on
the ground that the champion needs
tune-up bout before he meets
Wills.
Richard has promised to confide in
the commission within a month and
probably will lay his ambitious plans
upon the table sooner than that If
the commission can be held together
meantime.

Tribe Gossip

The Indians rallied in the eighth
inning Friday and scored three
runs, but three were not enough to
catch the Blues at that stage Of the
fracas. The bases were filled when
the side was retired.
Picks home run in the sixth went
over the low ,eft-field fence and Mich.
olson was on base at the time. The
heavy breeze. approaching a gale,
helped the drive.
The first hit off Henry came in
the third stapza and was a scratch
double by Grigsby. Schneider and
Stephenson got confused on a fly
ball near the left field foul line.
Elmer Voter had a bad day at
third and the Blues were lucky and
counted runs on his miscues.
Four errors were charged against
the Indians and none against the
Blues. The boys don't appear able
to get settled.
Regardless Of the defeats OF Thurs
day and Friday Nhe fans a"e loyal
and the week end is expected to at.
tract plenty Of customers. And
there are plenty of seats. Sunday
will be an opportunity for the fans
to top that opening day attendance.
Friday was the first ladies day
Of the season and 700 feminine root
ers were present. Paid attendance
was $40.
