CHICAGO CONTRACTOR
 REMEMBERS WITH GIFT
 VISIT ID SEWARD \. [.

As token of esteem in which he holds the Seward Athletic Club, in whose gymnasium he had several good workouts, during his visit here enroute to the Westward on a hunt ing trip. Avery Brundage of Chicago, three times member of the American Olympic team, sent the local organi- zation a box of 12 hand balls similar to those used in the Chicago Athletic Club.
 MT. BrundGge says he arrived back home around the first of this month and while playing his first game of hand ball in the club court, was re- minded of the Seward Club He trusts that the members will find the balls satisfactory and that they will enjoy many friendly contests with them.
 Upon leaving Seward MT. Brundage returned to Seattle via the Yukon, Dawson and Skagway route. In his letter yesterday to Leonard Hopkins, he says while in Dawson he saw an old outdoor one wall court which was almost covered with grass and weeds. It evidently had been erect ed by some fan in the days of pros perity in the Klondike. This ruins, he says, Seward s claim for the far thest north handball court, although Seward can rightly say it has what is probably the farthest north court in actual use, for the one in Dawson has not been played on in many years. MT. Brundage ended his let ter in asking to be remembered to his Seward friends.

ED DTTORI A l.
LINDY WRITES A NOTE

Among the many letters received in New York by Col. Lindbergh one morning recently was one from boy in Boston, who wanted the aviator to fly over the hospital in which he was a patient.
 The request appealed to Lindbergh, but as it could not be compiled with, he wrote the lad note and sent it with a photograph by air mail. The note said.
 Dear Ned:
 'T saw your letter today just before leaving on my tour of the country. cant fly over the hospital in Boston where you are because it would be against the law, but in order not to disappoint you entirely, I am sending you a picture of myself and the "Spi- rit of St. Louis," which you can show to the other boys and girls who are with you.
 'I hope you will be well soon and that you can get back to your home in Spokane in time for the air races in September There will be lots of avi- ators there and you can see them close up.
 With my best wishes.
 Charles A. Lindbergh."
 And when he received that note and photograph it is easy to believe that Ned was the proudest boy in Boston.
