Safeway Airways Files for Exemption

Gentry w. Shuster, doing business as Safeway Airways, has filed application with the Civil Aeronautics Board for a temporary exemption order.
 The application, which has II sections, under which one sec tion has nine points, details Shuster's arguments for a Sew ard based carrier doing business between Seward and Anchorage on a part time schedule, request ing authorization to conduct not more than Is round trips per month in the interest, conven- fence, and necessity of the peo- pie of Seward.
 He offers the statement that the applicant has been based at Seward since 1943; has served the public consistently and fair ly since that time; has shop, hangars, office and a full time mechanic at Seward; has an of flee and shop in Anchorage used by him in his capacity as dis tributor for the Territory of Alaska for Piper and Stinson aircraft, Edo floats, and other merchandise; and has had a 100 per cent safety record in oper- ations.
 He also points out that on July p, 1946 in docket 2397, and on Sept. Is, 1947 in docket 3147, the applicant applied to the CAB for certificates of public convenience and neces- sity authorizing him to fly be- tween Seward and various other Alaskan communities, not in- cluding Anchorage. No hearing was ever granted on either dock ct mentioned, but if either appli- cation had been granted, he would now have been authorized to fly infrequently between Sew- ard and Anchorage under pres ent CAB regulations.

Representative To Leave Mon. For Cleveland

Announcement was m d e Thursday of this week that the University Fund, with goal of $500, had reached $1462 in money collected and pledges. Later information is that three of the city's organizations have subscribed enough to bring the total we'll over the desired amount.

Irwin, with the assistance of the committee and others, has correlated the ma terial into an interesting and informative series which will surely receive its share of con- sideration by the Committee which will deal directly and definitely with location of the college at the meeting.

In Appreciation Sonuforium

Mrs. Mae Gutekunst and Miss Ruth Murren wish to express their deep appreciation in behalf of the Seward Sanatorium per sonnel, to the Seward townspeo- pie for their immediate and un- tiring assistance in fighting the fire at the Nurses Home on the Hateful evening of March 29; and their generous and unstinted re- sponse in supplying clothing and other needed articles to help re- place the destruction of the fire
 The prompt, courageous and untiring efforts of the Volunteer Bremen, the friends and rela- lives of the employees and pa- tients, and the others who re- sponded to the alarm prevented a spread of the fire to the other Sanatorium buildings and avert ed what easily might have been much worse catastrophe.
 The ARC, the Seward Nurses Association, the merchants, the other organizations, and the in- dividuals who lost no time in donating and collecting direly needed clothing for the nurses whose entire possessions were destroyed, made it possible for work in the San to go on with little apparent interruption in the usual service to the patients, and did much to boost the morale of all.
 The Sanatorium personnel is truly and deeply grateful to Seward for such a magnificent response.

Health Nurse Reports Chickenpox
 Increase in City

Mrs. Gertrude Jurgeleit, Pub lie Health Nurse, in her monthly report to the City Council notes the increasing number of cases of chickenpox among pre-school and school children. Although this is not considered to be one of the more dangerous of chill dren's diseases, she feels that it is neither wise nor necessary to allow the disease to spread uncontrolled. -.
 Not all cases come to her at- tention, and many times the child is treated with home reme- dies without consultation with physician. A sick child may be coming down with chicken pox, or it might be something more serious.
 The Nurse feels that chicken: pox should be more or less iso- lated, the same as any other con- tagious disease for the protec- tion of other children. If mothers do not voluntarily keep children away from others during the time of infection, it should be done by quarantine. She has found children in school, in the movies and in the stores who should have been confined to their homes in order to prevent the spread of contagion.

The second presentation of The Messiah by the Seward Choral Group was well received Wednesday night, and is receiv- ing many compliments from music lovers about town.
 This was the second year that this group, made up of singers from all churches, has worked long and hard to produce work of art to the people of Seward without cost to the listeners. Made up of 38 voices, the parts were we'll balanced and under complete control of the director, Miss Shirley Calnan, whose sen sitive hands brought out color and tone with the quality of grass rippling in summer breeze.
 Several voices were missing since the last performance, but the substitutions were equal in quality and talent. The addition of the Roberta Smith Memorial Organ, played by Martha Irwin, wife of Rev. Paul Irwin, was the perfect balance for the en- Semble.

coroner's Jury Verdict In
 baehnl Death

The verdict of the Coroner's Jury at the inquest held Thurs day, April 6, over the death of Fannie M. Baehm is as follows:
 "We, the jury duly empaneled and sworn in the above entitled matter, in accordance with the evidence offered and from in spection of the body do find as follows:
 That the name of the de- ceased person is Fannie M. Baehm, that she came to her death on the 5th day of April, 1850 between the hours of 8 pm. and 9 pm. at the Van Gild- CT Hotel, by means of a bullet presumably fired from .22 calibre revolver in the hands of Joe Baehm, her husband"
 Confesses Shooting
 Joe Baehm confessed to the shooting of his wife, Fannie Minette Baehm, nee Parkin, at about goo o'clock Wednesday night in Room 12 of the Van Glider Hotel. He was taken into custody by Police Chief Leonard Clark and Marshall Irwin Met calf, and is now lodged in the Federal Jail in SeWard.
 Mrs. Baehm, who was a wait ress in cafe directly across the street from the hotel, was scheduled for surgical treatment at the Seward General Hospital on Friday, and is known to have sent S20 to her husband in Anchorage earlier in the week. He says that she asked him to return home until after the operation. He arrived by afternoon plane on Wednesday, and after talking to her in her room, left the hotel. Statements from witnesses show that she became afraid of him as he began drinking heavily, and that she hid away from him in an other room for the rest of the day and evening.
 At about 500 p.m, the police were called to remove him from a nearby bar, but as the owner did not file complaint against him, he was not arrested. Sever al taxi drivers testified to hav- ing taken him to various points about town, apparently in search of his wife.
 Around 800 o'clock Baehm bought a .22 calibre revolver f m Glenn's Second Hand Store. The owner does not sell ammunition, but upon request did find two cartridges to fit the gun. Williams testified that Baehm did not appear to be in toxicated at the time.
 At little after 500 o'clock, a friend of Mrs. Baehm told her she thought Joe was in jail as she had seen Patrolman Ander- son take him away in the after noon. She started with Mrs. Baehm to the lobby with the in- tention of telephoning the Pc lice Department to find out if he had been arrested and was in jail. According to Mrs. Harris, they had started down the stairs when Joe called to them from the top. He told Fannie that he wanted to speak with her in pri- vate, so she went back to room 12 with him.
 It was shortly after this that persons in the lobby heard a shot, and upon rushing up to the room, l.. F. Fink, and a MT. Nel- son found Baehm kneeling near his wife, who appeared to be asleep in the rocking chair with her head resting on the back.
 Baehm rushed past them, ac- cording to testimony, ran from the hotel and down the street
