Local Kiwanians are busy mak- ing the final preparations for National Kids Day celebration to be held in Palmer this Saturday.
 Festivities will be in three phases, leading off with the Kids n Pets parade, starting at l:3O pm. at the school grounds. From the school the parade will pro- ceed across the tracks, through town, and past the telescope stand near the Palmer Drug which will serve as the judges stand, then back to the school gym.
 Adding color and music to the parade will be the marching band of Palmer High School in their colorful uniforms.
 All kids are asked to assemble at the school by 100 pm. with their pets and entries in readiness.
 Immediately following the par ade the community is invited to go to the school gymnasium for. the Live Talent show and the Hobby display. Any child is elig- ible to enter in any one or all three events. The idea behind this type of Kid Day observance is to turn the spotlight on the children and youth of our community and to give them a chance to demon state their constructive talents.
 Apples and oranges will be sold by Kiwanians throughout the day. Funds raised through the sale will go towards the Boys and Girls fund of the local organization, which fund is set aside to be used wherever children are in need or can be helped in any way.
 The committee in charge of Kids Day is composed of the fol- lowing members. Rev. Ed Imme, chairman; Wm. Zahradnicek, parade; Jim Hurley, hobby show;

Hospital Reports Show Marked Improvement Pusf Eight Months

In spite of rises in expenses, a decided decrease in the overall losses experienced by the Valley Hospital is noted in figures re- leased this week by O. K. Kin caid, hospital manager the past year. The comparison of figures was made for the first eight months of 1851 and the same period in 1852.
 Increases during the eight month period in 1852 were evil dent in the number of patient days-an increase of TAO over the 1851 figure; average number of patient per day and the income per patient day. Although the expenses per day were higher by $1.19, the loss per day was only 43 centS compared to the 1851 figure of $2.27 per day.
 Total income in dollars and cents for the 1852 period was an increase of $2O,309.53 over the 1851 figure of $48,614.95. Fix penses were $17714.55 higher this year but the net loss showed a decrease of $2,594.87.

CITY SETS STREET WIDTHS; METERS TO BE INSTALLED

A special meeting of the City Council was called September 22 to settle pressing problems con- fronting the water system con- tractors. Present were MT. R. T. Mathews, Alaska Public Works inspector and V. M. WorStell, gen. eral contractor under Lilly Con- struction Co.
 Establish Street Width
 First, and most pressing, was the discovery that in drawing plans for the water system, Thom- as Bourne Co. had placed water mains along one side of the streets in such a manner that fire hyd- rants would be located toward the center of the street from the mains. The council was suddenly confronted with the decision to establish set policy on the width of city streets and as a result passed the following resolution:
 Said streets shall be as wide as possible under the circum- stances; all space from property line 10 property line shall con- stitute the street proper, and future plans for the construc- lion of sidewalks shall contem- plate the taking of sufficient space from private property along said streets for the pur- pose of sidewalk construction.
 The resolution was forced at this time to facilitate the con- Struction of the municipal water work, municipal sewerage and n the interest of future planning ot streets and sidewalks. It appears essential that a permanent width of streets be established because ditching for WaterWorks will be started within the city proper soon. Present street widths vary from 50 feet wide down to only 30 feet wide i'll some sections of the city. Under the new resolu- tiOn, all present road space has been set aside for streets.
 Fire HYdrants
 Following the discovery that plans for placing fire hydrants would have to be changed 1t was brought out by WorsteIl that hy- drants ordered by the construc- tion company were built for left hand turns, as provided in the original plans. Changes necessi- tated when the curb was estab- Ished at the edge of existing streets rather than five feet to- ward the center of what would

Public Health Nurse
 To Leave Area Nov. 1 No Successor Named

Members of the Matanuska Valley Health Council meeting last Thursday night were stunned and saddened by the announce ment of Public Health Nurse Marjorie Myren that she would be leaving this area November 1.
 No successor has been found to replace Miss Myren, but she ex- pressed hope that one would be found before she left or soon after her departure. It was ponted out, however, that this area will be expected to make more appre- ciable contribution to the public health program If the invaluable services of public health nurse are to be continued. At present, though the Community Chest and a small contribution from WaSllla, about SIPS IS contributed toward the overall budget. This includes $500 toward the nurses salary, rent and office supplies for the Health Center, and clinic and medical supplies. Both Miss My ren and Louise Kellogg, past president of the Health Council, reported conversations with De- partment of Health officials III which it was emphasized that the area would be expected to ln- crease its share of the nurses sal ary. It was also suggested, as it has been in past years, that the area assume the expense for the nurses care.
 The possibility that the Alaska Department of Health might soon set up a Public Health District, as allowed by the law, to include the City of Palmer, the Palmer Independent School District, and Chugiak Territorial School Dis tricts was also discussed. The ln- tent of the department to set up such a district, to be known as the Matanuska Valley Health Dis trict, has been discussed informal ly with Miss Myren and members of Health Council executive com mittee. That such a move might be anticipated either before or immediately after Miss Myren's departure posed a problem far more difficult in its implications. Setting up of Health District would require stipulated finan- cial support both from the City of Palmer and the Palmer Indepen- dent School District. If such SUD- port were not forthcoming, Ter ritorial and federal funds support ing public health work ln these areas might be withdrawn.
 Hiss Myren explained one of the reasons for the urgent need to have organized communities assume more of the responsibility

Bobby Dykes Favored
Over Ted Murray in
1O-Rounder Tonight
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, April 25.-Bobby
Dykes, welterweight contender,
is a 212-to-1 favorite to start a
new winning streak tonight at
Ted Murray's expense in the top
10-rounder at st. Nicholas Arena
On the records, the 26-year-old
Murray doesn't appear to have
much of a chance against the
lanky Texan, who now calls
Miami his home. But the 90
year-old Dykes has tendency to
loaf and get careless against
lightly regarded opponents and
often needs to rally to win. The
New York Negro. with everything
to gain, should wage an aggressive
battle.
