SEAFAIR SKULL-DUGGERY—Toasting their plans for mischief during the 1951 Seattle Seafair celebration August 2-12 are the
official rogues of the civic carnival Don Reed who plays the role of Captain Kidd (left) and Adam Lyskoski, smiling Davy Jones. Joining in the moment of pre-carnival revelry is Miss Colleen Anawalt. The Davy Jones Crew, made up of members of the Ale and Quail Society of the Washington State Press Club, will rove through Seattle on fun-searching visits to Seafair event sites.
SEATTLE'S SEAFAIR RESTAURANT—Seattle's popular Seafair Restaurant, located at 2nd and Broad, was recently opened by Joe Boothby who operates four other restaurants under the banner of Seattle's United Restaurants.
Pageants, parades, marine regattas, races and a dazzling array of other events will crowd the 11-day calendar of Seattle's second annual Seafair, August 2 to 12. Greater Seattle, Inc., announcing the Seafair program, said the stress would be on marine events in keeping with Seattle's boast as "boating capital of the world."
Twenty of the nation's fastest speedboats will be here for the Gold Cup race. A downtown parade will precede the race.
Other marine events will include Pacific Coast speedboat and outboard championships, a sailboat regatta, regional swimming and diving competitions, fishing derbies and a water-ski show.
The Aqua Follies will be staged nightly at the Green Lake Aqua Theater.
A variety of community festivals is planned during the Seafair, including the International Carnival, University District Seafair Kids' Parade, West Seattle Hi-Yu Days, Rainier District Pow-wow, Wallingford Pirate Days and the Ballard Festival.
King Neptune II and the Seafair Queen will reign over the Seafair. Davy Jones and his crew of pirates will enliven the Seafair with attempts to shanghai the Seafair royalty.
