Gary Bach
 Dies Suddenly
 In KetChikan

Gary Bach, pioneer transportation man in Alaska was claimed by death at his home on Pine street, in Ketchikan, last Friday morning af- ter suffering a heart attack while at work in the office of the North land Transportation company the day before.
 MT. Bach, who was agent for the Northland line, was stricken at a. bout 2:30 in the afternoon and was taken to his home immediately. Al- though he had been in i'll health for some years, his death was un- expected.
 The veteran transportation man had been with the Northland for the past 13 years.
 He was born at Carlton, Wiscon- sin, in 1873. He was purser on the old Admiral line vessels for years before settling in Anchorage, where he was married 22 years ago.
 Survivors include his widow and son Gary, in the Coast Guard, who is now in Ketchikan and and a niece in Durham No. Carolina.

BLOOD GOES TO THE DOGS
 IN CANINE KINGDOM
AP Features

ORLANDO, Fla.-Blood doners of dogdom.
 That's the term applied by more than 1000 dog owners in Florida to the six giant racing greyhounds owned by the Rubie Dog Hospital here.
 About seven years ago kennel op- orators of a nearby racing dog track found that Rusty 70 pound greyhound, was consistently losing races. The customers didn't like it, and neither did his owners. They decided to get rid of Rusty the hu- mane way.
 Dr. Jerry Ruble, president of the Southern Veterinarian Medical So- ciety, heard about the desire of Rusty's owners to dispose of him. He asked for Rusty, received him, and thus began the blood doner club of dogdom.
 In the past seven years, Rusty has given nearly two barrels of blood to puppies whose blood had been sucked away by the dreaded
The Wrangell sentinel., 1943-08-27

hookworm that is the scourge of dogs in the South.
 Puppies two to eight weeks old are very susceptible to hoOkwOrm, Dr. Ruble explains. When they get the disease the hookworm sucks up blood like a sponge The puppy be- comes weak and anemic-and often dies. It is almost fatal in this weak ened condition to administer a suong bookworm medicine"
 After a pint of rich blood from Rusty, the puppies are as frisky as ever. Then strong hookworm medi- cine can be administered.
 Rusty has been followed by five other racing greyhounds. In the last six years, as blood doners these eanines have given more than 1,60O quarts of blood in transfusions, and have actually saved the lives of more than 1000 dogs in Florida which might otherwise have died, Dr. Ruble asserts.
 When the six dogs are not giving transfusions, their rich blood is utilized for the manufacture of dis temper serums.
 Racing greyhounds are we'll suit ed to be blood doners, Dr. Ruble says. Their bodies contain as much as two quarts of blood, and about half this amount can be taken in transfusions without serious injury to the dog.

WE'LL COME AND KILL
 YANKY' IS SIGN SCRAWLED
 ON KISKA HUT WALL
By Associated Press

KISKA HARBOR - A serawled sign on a hut wall here says:
 We shall come again and kill out separately the Yanky iokers." ."
 There is a grave on the hill hard by the burned-out wreck of an Am erfcan P-40 carefully laid out and bordered with machine gun shells. There is a cross at the head. At the side there is a typical Buddhist grave shrine like an outsized cue koo clock, under a peaked roof. In English, a sign reads: Here lies the body of a brave American sky soldier who sacrificed his life and youth because of valor for his moth CT country"
 In between those signs are all the contradictions that are Kiska.
 A dozen American transports are in Kiska Harbor, in the midst of the hulks of Jap ships.
 Airfield To Be Filled
 The airfield, 2,500 feet long, Is ready for use as soon as the bomb craters are filled in.
 The enemy took what he could carry on his back, but left trucks. engines, guns, ammunition (of which he was a little short) blan- kets, tools and telephones.

TUBERCULOSIS FIGHT MORE IMPORTANT NOW THAN
 EVER, SAYS BARTLETT

The continuing fight against tuberculosis, the Territory's great est menace outside of the Japs, was discussed at a meeting of the Alaska | Tuberculosis Association held re- gently in Juneau. Said E. L. Bart lett, president of the organization, "NOw more than ever We must warn and educate the citizens against this germ-spreading disease. It isl our patriotic duty to keep the home front healthy and guard against the usual warime rise in tubereul- osis."
 Accordingly the members voted to continue their usual educational program and to assist the Territor- ial Department of Health and the Federal government in sending out a field technician who could visit the more isolated portions of the Territory taking tuberculin tests and X-rays. Toward this end the sum of S15O0.00 was turned over to the Territorial Health Depart ment by the Association.
 At the meeting Mrs. Bess Winn was appointed Executive Secretary replacing John Hagmeier, who re- signed due to the stress of outside work. Mrs. Vim will have charge of the sale of Christmas Seals and IS looking forward to an enthusias- tic response. In statement made recently she said that in all of her 31 years in the Territory, she had never known of a time when Alas kans failed in generosity and she believed that they would make their usual liberal contributions.
 Other officers of tne organization include Mrs. William Paul. Vice President; Dr. James c. Ryan, Sec retary; James McNaughton, Treas urer On the Board of Directors are Claude M. Hirst, Dr. w. P. Blan- ton, Dr. George Hayes, Dr. Russell R. Hendrickson, pr. Paul Lindquist, Dr. w. w. Council, Curtis Shattuck John Hagmeier, H. ,I. Wander Leest and J. B. Burford.

JapS Gone When Americans Land
 On KiSka Island
By WILLIAM W0RDEN Associated Press)

BAMBOO BAY Kiska-Amerlcah and Canadian troops have com pleted the occupation of Kiska is- land without finding a single Jap anese defender and without having a shot fired at them.
 It was one of the strangest anti climaxes to a military campaign in the history of modern warfare.
 The Allied occupation began Sun day morning, August 15, when the first units hit Quisling Cove, on the west side of Kiska, in rubber boats. They came in to establish a beach, head while naval artillery shelled the Gertrude Cove urea from the south.
 These units were followed b y regular landing forces at dawn Sun day at Quisling and before dawn Monday at Bamboo Bay.
 Since then, thousands of troops have been pouring ashore at these two principal landing points.
 Gear Was Left
 Patrols have penetrated all import ant parts of the sormer Japanese fortress island and also have gone across Little Kiska Island, finding nothing but gear the Japanese a bandoned in their nasty flight.
 That flight apparently was about a week or ten days before this was written.
 No living Japanese were found anywhere. Nothing was in sight but a few abandoned artillery piec- es in the midst of wreckage caused by months of American bombing.
 What could have been the blood a simple landing job because the enemy preferred not to try to save the island.
 It is not known here precisely how the Japanese escaped or how many were on the island. Official estimates placed the garrison less than a month ago at between 1000 and 10000 men although it was ad- mitted officially that there could have been considerably fewer.
 Barges Disappeared
 Several possibilities exist, f courst, to explain the getaway. A number of Japanese landing barges were seen here early in July. They disappeared after the last large naval bombardment two weeks ago. A considerable portion of the gar rison could have put to sea in them although it would have been hor- rible trip even if Japanese submar- ines or surface vessels were waiting for them somewhere at sea.
 It is also possible the Japanese may have been withdrawing their garrisons, a few men at a time, for months, so the withdrawal was not noticed by aerial reconnais- sance.

Recent Allied Success in Undersea War.
Is Result of Coordinated Campaign
Improved Weapons,
Better Use of Old,
Defeating Subs

"The submarine was utterly
defeated in May" Prime Min
lister Churchill stated trium-
phantly in a recent address.
The first lord of the admiralty
amended this by announcing
that the British navy had set a
new record in that month for
U-boat sinkings, and that losses
now exceeded German produc-
ton.
Thus the gravest threat to Allied
success, the submarine campaign
against shipping, is being answered,
as it was in World War I. Success
is coming faster than anyone dared
hope a little while ago. In April
Admiral King of the U. S. navy pre-
dicted that the submarine danger
would be brought under control with
in four to six months. Secretary Of
Navy Knox a few days later said
that the increasing numbers of de-
stroyers now guarding conveys
would soon have their beneficial eff
feet.
The peril to the bridge of ships"
carrying war supplies to Europe and
the Orient is not being met by any
one "secret weapon" Destroyers,
airplanes, cannon, radar, helicop-
tiers, balloons and many other war
machines are being employed in
combinations best adapted to the
task.
The change for the better has
come rather suddenly. Only last
January the tremendous losses in
shipping tonnage were causing ex-
IRENE concern in Allied war coun-
ellis. Almost a million tons month
was being sunk last year. Charles
E. Walsh, chief of the maritime pro-
curement division, has revealed that
over IL million tons went down in
the first year of war. The Mer-
chant Marine reports that nearly
5000 men have been lost in the last
20 months. Until very lately, there
was little light through the dark
clouds.
Ships Getting Through.
Now the great fleets of merchant
ships are arriving in Allied ports
with small losses. The protection
devised by the navy is succeeding.

hundreds of ships carrying ammu-
milton, food, plane parts, oil and
thousands of other war materials,
as well as troops, offers many tar

Merchant ships must also carry

equipment of at least one lifeboat on

Water raticns on each boat have

ration biscuits must be included in
every boat for each person.
Rubber lifesaving suits are is

Besides keeping a man dry while in

each suit is a jackknife with which
a man can free himself if he is en-
tangled in ropes, and police whis-
tie and a red signal light to at
