Kodiak Diary
(continued from page 3)
something. After ascertaining
that Paul was the “sheriff” the
Mr. Earl said he was tracing a
stolen car. It was a Pontiac, and
a couple weeks before, somewhere
in Alaska, had sort of disappear
ed and he had a hunch it might
show up at Kodiak.
Paul explained that being a
couple of hundred miles from
the mainland a car couldn’t be
driven here, which seemed to be
the implication the man was
making, but that he would keep
his eyes open in case
Paul estimated from the time
it took for the call that it would
cost about $35.
The funniest part of the whole
thing was an incident preceding
the conversation.
Paul was sitting with the
phone at hand, waiting for the
connection to be made, when he
remarked to someone in the Sig
nal Corps office: “Who in.
told those people in Washington
that we had a phone at Kod
iak?”
Paul didn’t know it at the1
time, but his remark went wing
ing over the air. On at least one
radio in town the remark was
heard, and the voice recognized!
And now that the subject has
come up, we feel we should warn
some of our readers before it is
too late that every radio tele
phone conversation can be picked
up on almost any radio m town.
From one of the conversations
we heard, we should have men
tioned it sooner. It’s against the
law, of course, to divulge aDy j
such eaves or should we say |
antenna- droppings, but having
once lived 011 a rural party tele
phone line we feel the warning is
in order.
