Council Considers Hiring A City Manager

Kodiak voters will decide if they wish to hire a city mana ger for the City of Kodiak when they go to the polls in the general city election in October.
 Mayor Lee c. Bettinger sug- gested to the city council Mon- day that a city manager be hired. After a discussion the council agreed to putting the proposition on the ballot in October.
 A salary of around $1O, 0OU' per year will be offered to the manager. The city clerk has heen instructed to locate a competent man for the job.
 The hiring of a city manager for Kodiak has been considered m the past by the council but this is the first time any defi- mite action has been taken. The majority of the voters must favor hiring a city mana ger before one can be hired.
 Robert Hedloff, city clerk, told the council that a city manager was badly needed. :" He said that the business at the city hall had increased considerably during the past two years.
 In the October election a mayor and two councilmen will be elected.
 The council also decided that the mayor and city councilmen should receive a salary. They indicated that they did not feel that the salary should be a large one. An ordinance must be enacted to provide salaries. However, none of the present council will be eligible to receive compensation for their services.
 According to an existing ordinance councilmen in office cannot vote themselves sala- ries. Only newly elected or in- coming councilmen will be eli gible to receive money.
 The amount of the salaries was not decided during the meeting. Paul Dupler, city at torney, will draw up the new ordinance.

Rowland Gets 30 Year Term Pleads Guilty
 To End Degree Murder

To End Degree Murder Roger B. Rowland, 38, was sentenced to 30 years in the penitentiary on a charge of second degree murder in the fatal shooting last October of Raymond Cruz, IS, U. 5. Marine.
 Cruz was shot down in the Civilian Cafeteria at Kodiak Naval Station over an alleged debt a few hours before he was scheduled to. board a plane for the states. Rowland was indicted for first degree murder and was held in custody at the U. g. Federal Jail here for several months.
 Assistant U. s. Attorney Lynn Kirkland recommended the lesser offense to which Rowland pleaded guilty be- fore Judge J. Earl Cooper. Rowland was once in a mental institution in Maine but was released within six months af- ter he showed improvement. At the time of the shooting he was employed at ANS as a laborer.
 A psychiatric examination recently showed Rowland was sane to the extent he knows the difference in right from wrong. However, the psychi- atrist did not think he killed maliciously-or with premedita- tion.
 Peter Kalamardies, attorney for Rowland, stated that the man was mentally unbalanced but not to the extent required by law for a defense on that point.
 Rowland still insisted in court Wednesday that Cruz owed him five dollars and was the cause for shooting the ma- rine. Before his death Cruz denied knowing Rowland or owing him money. Rowland bought the 7.65 automatic only a few hours before the shoot ing for hunting and self pro- tectlon. v
 Howland's attorney agreed with the 30 year recommends tion in the hope the prisoner would receive mental treat ment while in custody
