Scandrett; Head of Chicago, Milwaukee, with Wife and Son on Tour H. A. Scandrett, President of the Chicago Wilwaukee Railroad, Mrs. Scandrett and their four- year-old son “Skipper” are making a vacation tour of Alaska and passed through Juneau on the steamer Yukon last evening. They expect to leave the steamer at Seward and make a leisurely trip to Fairbanks on a special car of the Alaska Railroad with stops along the way for trout fishing. ‘This is the first trip Mr. and Mrs. Scandrett have made to Al- aska and both declared that it made a perfect vacation while the beauty of the scenery exceeded all expectations. They expect to spend a day or two in Fairbanks and return south on the next south- bound sailing of the Aleutian. Weather has been perfect the en- tire trip and is delightfully cool after the heat near Evanston, Il- linois where they make their home, they said. Mrs. Scandrett is interested in the towns and at- tractive homes of the Alaska peo- ple while her husband is looking forward with interest to traveling on the Alaska Railroad as well as making a good catch or trout while in the Territory. Young Skipper has been fascinated by the totem poles seen in the coast towns and thinks he might like to live in Wrangell where they abound. He is under the charge of Miss Eva Schmidder, nu: who is accompanying the party. While they were in Juneau Mr. and Mrs. Scandret{ made the Gray Line trip to Mendenhall Glacier and called informally on Gov. John W.
