The heartening prospect of hydro electric power for Seward and the entire .Kenai Peninsula was given the local utility board in special meeting Thursday night.
 Joseph Morgan, Director Blu reau of Reclamation for Alaska, and Brainard Severence, Bureau of Reclamation engineer, in a meeting with the board held out hope of Eklutna power within five years.

During that time, 1t will be possible to continue with planning and construction of the Crescent Lake project, which was proposed by the Army En- gineers two years ago. Some sur veys have been made on this project, but additional work Is necessary to compete these plans.
 Morgan expressed keen inter est in the Kenai Peninsula project in a meeting with Clarence Keat- ing in Anchorage. MT. Heating accompanied the men on the trip to Seward and introduced them to utility board members here.
 Barton Stanton, chairman of the utility board, stated today that the prospects look good for hydro elecric power in Seward within five years. Tn the mean time, however," MT Stanton stated, we must continue to sup ply diesel power to keep up with the rapid growth of the city and enVirons.' ."--
