Oil Shortage Looms Here

The local supply Of fuel oil IS low, Merrill Coon, local agent for the Standard Oil Com pany announced today, and be- ginning this week oil to all local consumers will be rationed.
 There is no need for great concern" MT. Coon said, If everyone will cooperate in con- serving oil in every way pos sible "
 A plan has been worked out, MT. Coon explained, whereby all persons desiring oil must. order through the Standard Oil office, naming the transfer they wish to have deliver it. The avail able oil will be apportioned among users and no oil will be delivered to any consumer whe has oil storage until he has used that storage first.
 Of the small amount of oil on hand a reserve has been set aslde for the school, mission and hos pital, MT. Coon said. There is a possibility, he added, if all oil is consumed before new supplies are received, that a much strict CT rationing may have to be em- ployed The present plan was a. dopted in the hope of making the present supply last as long as possible with as little inconveni- ence as possible to everyone.
 The situation is not so acute as it was g year ago, he explain ed, as many took heed of the warnings of the company to in- crease oil storage and fill them before the arrival of the oil tank CT last Spring. If more had done so, he said, enough oil might have been stored to last through the winter period. The oil supply would have been completely ex- hausted nov if the winter had been as severe as a year ago.
 People can not only help by conserving oil themselves, MT. Coon pointed out, but those with oil storage supplies of more than two months can aid the situation by selling their surpluses to other consumers they know to be in need of it
 Consumers storage in town is well-illed as of this week, he said; otherwise the company's oil supply would last normally only a week longer.

Death Takes OId-timer

Fred Sargent, one of Kodiak's best-known old-tlmers and son of a pioneer Kodiak family, died suddenly of a heart attack on February 6 in Corte Madera, Calif., according to word sent here by Mrs. Sargent to two of their children, Walter and Alvin Sargent, No further details were given except that the funeral was arranged for tomorrow (Sun- day) at San Francisco.
 MT. and Mrs. Sargent left Kodiak in September to visit with their children in the States and expected to return to Kodi- ak in the Spring. While there MT. Sargent planned to take treatment for a stomach ail- ment.
 Frederick Sloan Sargent was 69 years of age, having been born in Kodiak on Dec. p, 12- 75. His father was a member of the army of occupation station led at Kodiak after transfer of the Territory from Russia to the United States.
 Mir. Sargent lived in Kodiak all his life and engaged in fish ing; for a number of years he operated a saltery at Shuyak. Besides the widow and sons Alvin and Walter of Kodiak, MT. Sargent is survived by the following children: Mrs. Fern Cleghorn and Ms. Corinne Pet rich, both of San Francisco; Mrs. Esta Schmidt, Los Angeles; Mrs. Mary Case and Mrs. Nettie Menchaca, both living in Texas; a son, Ted, in the Army Trans port Service, last heard from on his way to Australia; and three sons in the Army; Bill, in hos pltal in Spokane; Nell, stationed in California; and Edward, somewhere in France.

In San Francisco recently, Mrs. O. A. ToIgerson, wife of our local banker, went to get rail- road ticket, accompanied by her father.
 While waiting in line hel father struck up conversation with a naval officer and the subject of Kodiak was mentioned. The naval officer said he had just left Saipan by plane, and the Kodiak Victory was in har- Dor there and he had seen the famous mounted bear carried on the ship. He said the bear was making the ship famous where ever it went and he mentioned the mitten put on one of tbe bears paws. It seems the bear hangs in a companionway, the ! only place big enough for it, and the claws protrude so dangerous ly the mitten had to be put on to protect the crew.
 If the protective measure had not been adopted, think how 1t would have sounded if someone had been injured by the claws and written home to tell of his Kodiak bear wounds, especially from place like Saipan. The bear, by the way, was killed by Harry Christopherson and Pat Cannon of this city. 1 We would suggest that when
 the Kodiak Victory gets nearer Tokyo the crew hang the bear on
 the front of the ship, and re-
 move the mitten.

KODIAK DIARY ...

Employees of the Kadiak Fish cries at Port Bailey don't have to whistle while they work. Their inspirational music is furn- ished for them.
 Just recently a juke box was installed at the cannery, and loudspeakers strategically placed about the plant. One on the main dock allows the music to be heard at great distances over the water and up the hill, and another in the cannery proper furnishes tunes on morning, afternoon and evening schedules for the workers. The employees are said to enjoy the enlivening strains, especially on the long shifts.
 The repertoire ranges from the latest popular hit to "Indian Love Call" with a generous sprlnkling of the much-in-de- mand polkas and schottlsches. 
 We can't .hink of anything more appropriate than canned music for canned salmon. Can you?

 Nice of the gals to brave the drifts and ice to come out to see us. Thanks!
 Funny, but every time S/Sgt. Caul goes to D. C., Congress or some part of it has some kind of flare up. Wonder if he has any thing to do with it?
 Understand that Pvt. w. Alton has installed a switch on the neon gleam in his eyes.
 Watch that stuff, Pvt. E. Lee. We dug you at the Club last Tues day night.
 Pvt. R. Johnson really makes himself at home anywhere he goes. He carries his bedroom, or should we say barrack-room slippers at all times.
 See that Sgt. "Pappy" Ware is wiring his eyes for some neon tub ing. Wonder if it will be the same as Alton's?
 Sgt. "Game-Knee" Morris fur business seems to deal only with what the gals call "chubbies." We would hate to open bottle of milk near one of his creations. Meow!
 We bet that SISgt. W. Tabor will take his medicine as prescribed next time, rather than try to rush it. Take care, fellow.
 Say, Cpl. Whitaker, what hap ems to the femme in New York?
 No wonder Pvt. A. Glover is O. K. with the gals, the guy sings a nice song. Dig him some Saturday nite.

HELLO Again: After starting
 on his military career at Bradley fourteen months ago, Cpl. Thorn
 dike Saville, IT,, has returned to our station to pursue some-for a while anyway. In the meanwhile he had had a whirl around the local weather circuit at Mitchell Field, Richmond, Va, and Fishers Island. Having talked his draft board into waiver on his draft-proof eye sight, Thorndike asked for and got a weather assignemnt as soon as he was inducted. He had studied meteorology and civil engineering for two years at Harvard where he also found time for some basket ball, soccer, dramatics, and report ing for the Crimson. Science runs in the family; his father is Dean of Engineering at NYU. A resident of Bronx, that Borough of Univer- sities and many other things. Thorndike is glad to be back here again but isn't buying any local real estate.
 EMPIRE NOTES: From mystic India comes word from Cpl. SS Eakle to our Wacs that they are missing something by not being over there, as the WACs in-- (CENSORED) Headquarters live and are treated like queens. Short ly after Steve left the States, War Mobilization Director Byrnes clos ed the racetracks-it was no use going on then anyhow-so we have no important news to send back to him. He is looking for some tracks out there east of Suez but has had no luck so far. Presumably he would lose money much more slow ly betting on the elephants than the ponies, although the stakes may be upped to compensate for the greater elapsed time in the races.
 WEATHER OBSERVATIONS: Some of the forecasters trying to draw a map with recent typhus shots in their isobar arms. The WX and AACS mail clerks trying to outfumble each other on per forming the daily mission to the Post Office. .S/Sgt. Kennedy look ing for his Revelation Tobacco. :. The forecaster on duty looking for any revealation about tomorrow's weather. Sgt. Ben Wilson and Cpl. Joe Berg trying to outwhlstle each other-and both winning. Everyone rushing to the SWOs desk when distribution arrives to see who's shipping today.
 LATEST SPORT NEWS: The Weather-Comm basketball team absorbed a licking from the 93rd Monday night, but we weren't lick ed without a good fight. It was good ball game and enjoyed by all. We'll, we'll win another one before long. Cheer up, Cpl. Stanich, and don't wear that face so long; your team had a lot of good laughs.
