GUS GELLES MAKES
 FINE ADDRESS AT
 CHAMBER MEETING
ALASKA FLYING AGE IS GUEST AT SEWARD CHAMBER OF
 COMMERCE MEET

Real sincerity was manifest yester- day, at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon and business meeting, when Russell H. Merrill, chief pilot for the Anchorage Air Transport, rose up when asked to direct few words to the assembly and said II am glad to be back in Seward"
 As one of the members remarked later Merrill may be residing and fol- lowing his vocation in other parts of the Territory but Seward people will always feel he is Sewardite.
 Regarding the local field he said it would be impossible under present conditions to take off with more than around 500 pound load owing to the short runway. However, he added, if a swath were cut through the trees, directly north of the field, for about distance of 75O feet, this would give ample clearance for taking off with full load. The Anchorage field is about the same size as this one, he judged, but there are no trees border ing which permits ample clearance af ter leaving the ground.
 ] The Seward field has number o1 advantages over the Anchorage fielt but he said this is also true with re- gards to the Anchorage field over the Seward field. One of the advantages
Seward daily gateway., 1928-03-14

here, especially during the winter months, is that days could sometimes be saved in getting to the Interior at times when slides on the road halt traffic on the railroad. With the aid of pontoons planes could be operated to any point on the coast, West or South, from Seward. But the main travel, Merrill said, would be during the winter months and that to the h. terior. Snow conditions make it pos sible for plane to alight at almost anytime in the Interior with the excep tion of making the trip from this dis trict when Mount Spur must be cross ed; this takes but six minutes.
 Seward cannot hope to gain any of the Interior plane travel business un- less the local field is heightened by the method suggested, Merrill made clear, and repeated this is due entire ly to the trees. As north winds gen
 erally prevail here, it becomes necessary for planes to take-off into
 it. The southern portion of the field
 extending as it. does to the beach-line is ideal for taking off when the win' is coming from the South. Pilot Mel Till feels confident the Territory vii assist many fields this year. He sai

 Tt is awfully good to get back to Seward" Merrill added again in clos ing his interesting talk, flor it seems this is my universe. Seward was the first real Alaska town I arrived at when I first flew up from the States. particularly appreciate the fact that last year the Seward Chamber of Commerce presented me with 2 complimentary membership"
 Mir. Merrill took his seat to the tune of prolonged applause. President Dr. bach spoke a few words in reply to Merrill and then appointed an Air plane Landing Field Committee; c. E Orlander, chairman; Joe Badger and Captain Guthrie.

STRONG STORY SHOWING
 AT LIBERTY THEATRE.

Irene Rich and Conway Tearle scored hit last night at the Liberty theatre in the drama of Russian life before the war.
 Although rightly rated as too strong for youthful minds, at the same time 1t is not in in any way objectionable and is an absorbing tale of passion and love.
 The play IS unusual in that there is not fight or angry dispute in the whole eight reels, although. 1t deals with a group of drunken officers wronging girl, the best material for fights and duels. And the only war scenes are few flashes of light on black ground. No soldiers, no trenches no No mans land".
 This first American production of Paul Stein, the imported European director, proves him master of the art and with ideas of his own.
