I Said reporter clung tenaciously to | |a comparatively safe footing near the guard rail of the bridge yes- terday and watched the nonchal-} ance of workmen, 70 feet above the | waters of ‘Gastineau Channel, as they caught red-hot rivets. The wind tore at them and the rain [lashed “their faces, yet they un- | concernedly went about their busi-| ness of completing the firsf m_ur pf | the steel span. To the general public, the rivet- ers—including the men who, on a lower level, heat the rivets and toss them to the workers high above | wha use chattering riveting ma- chines to drive the glowing bolts into place—are the heroes of \‘.he‘ structural steel business. But mem- | bers of the steel “gang” them-| selves have just as high regard| for another crew—the erecting, or| raising squad.

WEATHER S YNOPSIS The storm area that was noted yesterday morning as being cen- tered over the Gulf of Alaska has decreased slightly in intensity during the past 24 hours and moved a short distance northward, the storm being centered this morning over the Kenai Peninsula. High pressure grevailed over the Aleubian Islands and over the Pacific Coast States. This general pressure distribfion has been attended by precipitation along the coastal regions from the Prince William Sound region southward to British Columbia and by generally fair weather over the interior and western Alaska.
