Kodiak Diary
(continued from page 10)
Whenever we see pictures of a
circus in newsreels, or scenes in
movies that take place on trains,
or any of a hundred and one i
terns similarly foreign to Kodiak
life, we think of the childien here
who grow up without first hand
experience in many things that
children in the states accept as a
matter of course
Recently one of our former
employees, High School Senior
Val Morrison, son of Mrs. Allie
Sanders, went to Hood River,
Oregon, and we looked forward
to healing from him ro find out
by what he was most impressed
on his first visit to more cosmo
politan centers.
win"" •» *“* rim Hgyacraners:
The big cities? The roaring traf
' fic? Trains? Super highways?
This week Val wrote a long let
ter detailing his impressions and
we eagerly looked for hi* first
reference to an experience asso
ciated with his presence in the
States—something he would nev
er know in Kodiak. We finally
came to it.
Wrote Val: “I have just smell
ed my first skunk."
Not being an addict of comic
books, although we read practi
cally anything, we would have
missed a thrilling story about
capturing a Kodiak bear if our
printer’s devil had not run across
it in a cui rent issue of Super Co
mics.
i ne sequence reierreu tu pur
ports to tell of the capture of a
live Kodiak hear on Kodiak is
land by Clyde Beatty, a name
well-known enough that you
would expect some authenticity
connected with it.
Allow us to read the funnies to
you. A two-masted schooner (is
it an old story?) with a caterpil
lar (is it a new story?) and Clyde
Beatty aboard, puts into Old
Harbor t« get a bear.
The ship docks at a dock (but
it says Old Harbor) and Ctyde
and Assistants get the caterpillar
unloaded plus and this is good,
a huge cage with iron bars, and
4 at-least-.Vft. wagon wheels on
it.
The "cat” is going to be used
to pull the huge cage, it seems.
irini
Arriving at Old Harbor, the cap
tain of the ship tells Clyde he
has a trapper friend 10 miles up
in the brush, so they hop aboa d
the “cat” and take the cagey
wagon the 10 miles. The trapper,
believe it or not, thinks the men
have brought a jail for him and
he is going to shoot to kill. We
don’t blame him for making the
mistake!
But the men explain their mis
sion before getting shot and they
start on plans for the bear, after
going out to watch him fish (his
name is Scarface, grr!) and see
ing a tree with teeth marks 8
feet from the ground. The dist
ance is all right, but guess what!
—“the bear bit out a chunk to1
show other bears how high he
can reach.”
Th» men dur a hole—15 feet
deep and at least 15 feet across,
and the trapper goes to a bee *
trre and comes back with two
big pails of honey for bait. Just
as he gets to the hole he looks
back and there is “Scarface’ so
he drops the pails and jumps in
to the hole with the other men.
Thai’s an awful hole to leave
them in, but it says to lie con
tinued, so you’ll have to wait for
the next installment. Will the
men get out? Will Clyde get his
jear?
As soon as our pr liter’s <levil
>rings us the next issue we’ll let
pou know.
A woman in the States, faced
with clothing shortages in local
Btores there, found it impossible
to get a good pair of wool slacks
So she recently wrote to Kod
iak for a pair of slacks. I want
hard-finish wool first choice, she
wrote in her order, and wool
flannel second chrice.
And, she added, my size is “36
hips, 24 waist and 34 bust."
Being a mere m tie, we judge
slacks must he being worn high
er this season
Mrs. Eleanor Dooley, awner
of the Taylor Apartments, le
turned to Kodiak Wednesday
from California where she was
called by the illness and subse
quent death of her sister.
Accompanying her were her
son, Paul Dooley, who was dis
charged from the Army in Oeto
l»er, and who is looking around
before settling down to civilian
life; and Mrs. Kena Austin, an
old friend, for whom it is her
first trip to Alaska.

The story, tailored to exploit
the unusual talents of its youth
ful stars, deals with the career of

actress, object of young O C on
