 As the petition business has always been good in Kodiak, we thought some one might like to hear of the idea. We have a sug. gestion as to how it might work to an advantage. We happen to know that many people sign pe- titions without knowing what they are signing. Yes, they do. On the last petition presented to the council, asking that "ser- viceman or woman" be appoint. ed to the city clerk-treasurer job, one signer was amazed" to read in the Mirror what the petition was about. The signer had thought it was on an entirely different subject! Then we recall another case where residen s of Mission road were contacted by two different parties presenting diametrically opposed points of view on the same topic. One pe- tition was for it; the other was agin it. And several peoples

understand that work will short
ly be started by the Navy in max
ing some needed improvements.
The course is little rugged in
spots. Navy men are invited out
to the course at all times but
there will be no reduction in fees
for them. AS a matter of fact,
fees may go up what with all
other expenses going up. The
Navy was principally interested
in getting the Country Clubhouse
which the Jaycees had already
declared for and for which they
are being backed up by city COM
mission, in my belief. The Coun-
try Club Association, which has
strangely come to life in a few
splutters, may put in a bid to
keep the Clubhouse themselves
but think the Jaycees should be
given the chance now. The AS
ISOLATION has muffed the ball too
much on this deal. Following
the city getting acquisition to the
land and the possible leasing of
the property by the city to the
Jaycees, it is probable then that
a suitcase on part of the build
ing will be granted the Golf
Club.
