The = Seattle Policemen, attired in enappy blue uniforms with witite glov belts and other trimmings, marched up Franklin Street and through the business district to the Federal Building and returned through the downtown area yes- terday afternoon shortly after the Alaska docked here. Large crowds lined the down- town streets and watched out of upper story windows as the smart- looking group marched in precis- jion formations along the route. Several tricky movements were also well executed enroute. The chil- dren were particularly entertained by the antics of four clowns at- tired as old-fashioned cops of the Gay Ninety era. In the evening, the group put on its entire routine at the Ball Park beginning with entertaining Scotch songs by its “Singing Scotsman,” Sergeant A. R. Chestnut. He was followed by the Police Quartette: Patrolmen * Amil Wiggen, Albert Gates, H. W. Vosper and J. Wallace, accompanied by Patrol-| man Herbert O. Ward, and intro- duced by their manager, Sergeant Vie T. Warford. They first sang old fashioned songs and then doff- ed their Gay Nineties costumes | and emerging as up-to-date Police- men, sang modern songs. | The program was introduced by Captain Herbert D. Bakenhus, manager of the Drill Team. The Drill Teama then marched onto the field and went through about 20 minutes of precision drill- ing which proved their claims to the many marching championships they have won. Their intricate marching patterns kept the aud- fence constantly applauding in ap- preciation of the difficult maneuy- ers, as called out by Drillmaster C. “Whitey” Schlaitzer, former U. S. Marine Sergeant Several members of the group | also brought along their wives and | children, The w¥es were enter- tained yesterday afternoon by William R.
