LOcoI Radio Features Weather Report For Seword Areo

Jay Stauter, manager of sta tion KIBH, announced at the Chamber of Commerce meeting Tuesday that the Alaska Broad casting Company and this sta tion have been trying for some time to get regular weather forecast report for Seward.
 The Seward forecast was to begin with the Friday evening news broadcast over station KIBH.
 "The Weather Bureau does not seem too interested in this sta tion," MT. Stauter stated Ion the grounds that the Anchorage bureau is already very busy" He urged, however, that the Chamber of Commerce enter a plea for the broadcast because of the number of planes coming into the area and for the bene- fit of fishermen.
 It has been said that Seward weather cannot be predicted with any degree of accuracy be- cause of converse winds over Resurrection Bay and through the pass. Many people feel that this could be overcome by the installation of better instru- ments in Seward, possibly at the airport.

Engineer Here ' To Make W' ater Survey

MT. Felix Toner, civil engin- eer of Juneau, arrived in Sew ard by Thursday mornings plane to begin his survey of the water situation.
 He will study the present system, sources, and possibili- ties for improvement or rehabil- itation. He was engaged by the city in compromise agreement with the Seward Water System. After an appraisal of the value of the installation and estimate of cost of rehabilitation, the water company and city will try to arrive at an agreement for improvement.
 MT. Toner told members of the city council Thursday that he was in town last September and made survey of the lot to be given to the Women's So- ciety of Christian Service mis- sionary board for the construc- tion of nurses home as the first unit of new hospital. The property surveyed was at that time the BroWnell Homestead, later purchased by the city. Councilmen were surprised to hear of the survey. They had not known of it and in January had instructed Vim. Estes to begin the survey of the entire purchase, laying out streets, alleys and building sites. He was to survey the hospital and nurses home site first. They ex- pressed consternation at the double survey, as there seems to be some difference of opinion as to the exact location of the proposed site.
 MT. Toner is accompanied by MT. Harstadt of Seattle.

Simons Rites Set For
 Sunday P.M.

Funeral services for Mrs. Andy Simons will be held Sun day, Feb. II, at 2 pm. in the Methodist Church, Rev. Paul Irwin officiating.
 Mrs. Simons was born on the first homestead in the Resurrec- tion Bay area before the town site of Seward was purchased and laid out by John Ballaine. The homestead was incorporated in the city limits.
 She was born Sept. 12, 1884, one year after her father, Arthur Lowell, settled on the home stead. The oldest of two daugh- ters, she is said to be the first white child born in this area after the Alaska purchase from Russia
 The descriptive booklet Alas ka's Kenai Peninsula" by L. H. Allen, speaks of the family "The first white family known to have settled at the site now called Seward was that of Ar thur Lowell in 1883. They came from Bath, Maine, and Lowell was said to have been a mem- Der of the aristocratic Lowell family of Boston who spoke only to Cabots, while Cabots spoke only to God"
 Several points around Seward bear the Lowell name. Two beautiful mountain peaks on the east of the Bay bear the names Mt. Alice and Mt. Eva, named for the Lowell daughters. Eva was Mrs. Simons.
 MT. Andy Simons is one of the best known big game guides in the Territory. He is said to hold the No. l license. They have lived for many years in roomy log cabin on Kenai Lake. It was near their cabin that plane crashed on New Years Day severely injuring the pilot and passenger, both of whom were rescued by Andy and taken to the cabin until help arrived. he is credited with saving both lives.
 Mrs. Simons is survived also by daughter, Rita, and two sons, Harry and Frank Revelle, all by former marriage. One of the sons is at sea, while the other and his sister are thought to be living near Fairbanks.

Color slides taken by Miss Jane McMullen, Seward school teacher, on her European tour last summer, with a running description of the slides, high lighted the regular meeting of Seward Woman's Club Thurs day evening.
 Miss McMullen was accom- panied on the trip by Miss Shir- ley Calnan, a former associate here.
 Club president, Miss Frances Clark, spoke few words of welcome and introduced the guests.
 Regular business was omitted except for a discussion of a donation to March of Dimes, for which a collection was taken as part of the clubs contribu- ton.
 Husbands and friends had been invited to a Valentine party as part of the evening, which was attended by about 40 persons. Two February birth days were honored by Happy Birthday" under the direction of Miss Goldie Busko, program chairman.
 Red tapers and a colorful Valentine cover adorned the table from which delicious re- treatments were served by the hostesses, Mesdames Kearns, Jordan, Phillips and Jackson.

Volunteer Bremen Agree To Monage Murofhon RUce

Upon the request of the Sew ard 4th of July Committee in special session last Sunday, the Seward Volunteer Bremen have agreed with considerable en- thusiasm to cooperate with the committee on the annual cele- bration, by relieving the com mittee of all but financial re- sponsibility of the Mt. Marathon Race.
 Because of the deficit in the total celebration in 1850, the committee had expressed unani- nous Encouragement. This, how ever, rather than quenching en- thusiasm in the project, has brought about the support of the powerful and active group of firemen. It has been decided to keep the costs at the same level as last year, with 5000 as the purse for first place, and number Of contestants to be un- limited.
 Sunday, Feb. II, is the next regular meeting date of the 4th of July Committee, 8 pm, city council chambers.

Keith Lenhart finally got his plane back to the airport after having it parked in the Susitna flats all winter.
 Soft ground on the flats pre- vented flying it out last fall, and heavy snow has held it down all winter. Dick Thomas took Lenhart over to the plane this week. They put skis on the plane and cleared a runway to fly it out, according to re- ports of friends.

VA Announces Plans For
 mSLI Dividend

Payment of a second special dividend totalling $685, ,000, ,000 to some eight million World War II veterans who hold National Service Life Insurance will be- gin soon, according to the Vet erans Administration.
 Dividends will be calculated through the anniversary date of the policy in 1851 and payment will follow a general schedule over the period of one year. First checks will be ready in April.
 Do Not Write
 Veterans are urged by the VA not to write regarding the sec ond dividend, since correspond ence will cause removal of the file from the production lines and delay payment.
 Payments will cover a three year period, from 1943 to 1851. Policies held in force from a total of three months or more during this period will be eli gible for dividends. This applies both to term and permanent plan policies, including those which have lapsed or were ter minated by death of the in- sured.
 The amount of dividend earned by each policy will vary according to the number of months ii was in force, the plan of insurance, face value of the policy and the age of the in- sured at the time it became eff fective.
 The first special dividend of nearly three billion dollars, payment of which now is vir- tually completed, covered the period each policy was in force up to it's anniversary date in 1948. The second dividend will be for the number of months in force from that date to the corresponding date in 1851. Pol icies issued in 1948, 1949 and 1850 will earn dividends up to their anniversaries in 1851.
 No application will be re- quired for the second dividend. In any case where there may be a question as to the address of record, special two-part re- turn card will be mailed for verification of the proper ad- dress before a check is sent.

The Office ot Aviation Safety Down-Drafts vs. Stalls, Again
 It is frequently said that when pilot has an accident, he has learned lesson; the hard way, perhaps, but nevertheless, some thing was learned.
 But the "doWn-draft" is a false refuge. In other types of accidents, the pilot usually winds up by saying, Well, that's something I won't try again" Whenever he fails to recognize the cause of his acci- dent, he shrugs his shoulders and says, II was in a down iraft." That seems to settle the natter.
 The elements were against him once he hit a down-draft, pr thought he did, so that the outcome depended solely upon he good will of Supreme

SELF-LIQUTDATING PROJECTS

The question of grants for self-liquidating projects and REC loans for protective struc- lures was settled in the confer ence committee after AMA urged Senators to stand firm against a House provision pro- hibiting grants for such projects. Grants cannot be made for self liquidating projects, but they can be made for portions of the project to be used exclusively for civil defense. Representative Durham, sponsor of the bill, ex- plained the compromise by ex- ample: Under the bill as agreed
