Forest Hill Park
Lake Gets All
.Clear" Signal

An "all clear" signal has been
awarded the algae condition at
the lake in Forest Hill Park.
That is the latest word from the
City Engineering Department,
which has been conducting a daily
check on the lakes surface since
the first operation to check the
algae was performed the latter
part of July.
City Engineer Malcolm S. Doug
las considers "the treatment has
been very effective"
In a detailed survey made over
the weekend the department
found no trace of the previous
scum.
"The lake has cleared" stated
Mr.. Douglas, with the exception
Of one spot, but we have ascer-
tanned that that is vegetation and
not algae."

The initial spraying operation,
emptying six gallons of chemicals
on the lakes surface, was fol-
lowed ten days later by a second
spraying of four gallons, the city
engineer said. The chemicals used
are harmless to humans, animals
and fish.
If the contamination should re-
appear, the city will employ more
drastic measures to combat the
scum. A charger would be in
stalled to force a continuous flow
of chemicals into the water, ac-
cOrding to Mr.. Douglas.
Two causes for the condition are
possible. Either the algae is
merely the result of some surface
contamination, or an unknown
sewage connection emptying into
one of the three sewers of the lake
may be present.
A survey of the storm sewers
showed this flow is not in itself
a possible source Of contamination,
the department found.

holding the tumbler. They are
daughters of the Robert r. Heis-

Kodiak Ok's Blood Type

On March 25, 26 and s27th, the P. E. Quonset hut at the Kodiak High School was the scene of the first blood typing program in Kodiak. The pur- pose was to establish a walk ing blood bank" for our com munity, which is too small for a true blood bank, so that blood of the correct type can be readily procured in case of a local disaster or emergency. The project was sponsored by. the Kodiak Health and Well. fare Council.
 MT. Frank P. Pauls, laboraf tory technician for the Alaska Department of Health, assisted the council in the blood typ ing. This was a local project sponsored and financed by the Health and Welfare Councils assisted by MT. Pauls.
 With the aid of excellent volunteer teams composed of doctors, nurses. nurses aides, and clerical workers, 1925 people were blood typed.
 MT. Pauls pronounced it one ] of the most successful pro grams that he has assisted in Alaska.
 In addition to determining the blood types, the RH factor {! was also determined. MT. PauIs stressed that it is just as important to know your RH factor as your blood type. s
 Each person was given aI card which shows his blood type and RH factor, and a metal dog tag will be mailed at a later date.
 1 The Kodiak Health and l Welfare Council would like t6
 take this opportunity to thans all of those who helped to make this program a success.

Sure of SHOOTING
Rocket to Moon
By the Associated Press

LONDON, Sept. 27.-Moscow
radio says Soviet scientists are
confident they will be able to
send a rocket to the moon "in the
near future"
A weekend broadcast said
Russian experts already have
fired rockets to an altitude of
around 400 kilometers nearly
$50 miles.
They are so sure they will be
able to reach the moon, and later
Mars and Venus, that they are
now working on ways to protect
their space ships from collisions
with meteors, the broadcast said.
It added that a Soviet engineer
named Shternfeld already has
mapped out "the most suitable
trajectories along which ships
will be able to make flights to the
moon, Mars and Venus"
