Two Fire Calls Answered by Bremen

The Seward Volunteer Fire De partment and the Alaska Railoard Fire Department made two calls about week ago.
 One of the calls was to the Alley B residence of Barbara Rogers It was thought that spontaneous combustion started the fire fol which the local volunteers were called at 11:45 pm.
 Damage to the structure was estimated at about $500. Some personal property was also des troyed. No one was at home at the time of the fire.
 The second call was to mile 171a where a. truck, driven by Harvey Bernard. crashed off the road into a creek bed, burst into flames, and set fire to a bridge. Bernard was brought to the Seward Hospital with burns and leg injury.
 The truck was a total loss, but Bureau of Public Roads officials credited the Seward firemen with saving the bridge.

Fund Drive On
 For Band Uniforms

How would you like to own a beautiful oil painting by Jim Jen- sen? If the answer is yes, then the Seward School Band mothers are looking for you. They are currently accepting contributions to help pay for new band costumes for the local band and in turn you will be eligible for an award of a large painting of an Eskimo girl. "Nyla" is currently being display ed in downtown store windows along with one of the band uni forms. Who the lucky owner of "Nyla" will be is to be announced September IT.
 The uniform which is currently displayed in McMullen's window is made in the school colors of green and gold. It is conserva- lively styled for the use of either boys or girls and should see many years of service.
 All uniforms will be the property of the school and will be passed on from year to year. They are made so that they can be altered easily.
 So far contributions have been received from business houses and service organizations and suf- ficient funds are on hand to pur- chase 13 uniforms and it is ex- pected that several other organ izations will help out.
 MT. Berg, school music director, reports that many new students are showing interest in joining the band With snappy uniform to encourage them it is thought that Seward can look forward to hay. ing one of the finest school bands in the Territory.
 No date for an appearance of the uniformed band has been set, but it can be looked forward to as memorable occasion.
