01 GAO OV AAAAAAOAA aAOAhlCo AA0Wf standing in the U. S., about one half are 30 years old or older. 10 million are 50 years old or older, Twetny-seven percent have no bath tub or shower; fifteen percent no running water and fifteen percent no kitchen sink.
 These startling figures were re- vealed in a recent nationwide sur vey. A survey of Kodiak could re- veal somewhat similar situation. Discounting the Aleutian Homes project, it might be said that half the homes in Kodiak are 30 years old or older-construction in the past five years has raised the level of Kodiak homes tremendously.
 But there are startling number of homes in need of improve ment-perhaps 85 percent or more. Many of them need only minor re- pairs-otherS need a definite face lifting.
 Housing deterioration is one of Americas greatest domestic prob lens. Older home areas become the SlumS of tomorrow, unless they are maintained. Anchorage, Fair banks and Sitka are dong some thing about these conditions now. Kodiak could we'll embark on such program before it becomes an acute problem.
 Operation Home Improvement is a program of such tremendous scope it should enlist the coopera- tion of every businessman and home-owner in the country. It is designed to accomplish two things: CD To interest more people in i'm proving their homes, and CD To help make it easier for home own CTS to buy materials and services.
 Of what benefit is all this to the home owner? The home-owner will say: Making needed repairs, add ing a bedroom or fixing up the old bathroom, or undermining my kit chen-all this represents a big in- vestment, which will be harder to get out when I want to move. Be sides l don't have the money. Lets take a look at these objections.
 First of all, are the benefits to be derived worth the effort? They can be summarized as follows. Home improvement means:
 I Greater comfort. A moderniz- ed home is more livable and cozier,
Kodiak mirror., 1956-04-07

warmer in winter, cooler in sum- mer..
 2. Greater convenience. A mod ernized home is easier to care for.
 3. Greater pleasure. A modern ized home gives you more room, more light, better view, more relaxation.
 4. Greater satisfaction. A mod ernized home with its new charm and enchanced appearance is a source of real pride to its owner.
 5 Greater economy. Modernizing your home keeps heating and re- pair costs down and insures a long CT life for your property.
 6. Better value. A modernized home is worth more and can be sold for more.
 We don't think anyone can re- flute the above observations as to the benefits to be derived from inn proving the home. Eeveryone of them are sound reasons for going ahead with program of improve ment. Now lets look at the second question. How and where do get the money?"
 The government is wholeheart- edly behind OH. Under the FHA's Title 1 Program, the home owner can borrow from the local bank, at an attractive interest rate, funds needed for home improvement. Re paying the loan can be spread over a period of years, thus making the monthly payments small. In addition, in many cases, funds can be secured even though there is a mortgage on the property. Every effort is ping made to encourage home improvement.
 AAOiilC 1Ahpi ONCHlcIil IuSdHS COtU- munity improvement. That's why we are so wholeheartedly back of the program of OH. There is so much more satisfaction to living in a community of well-kept yards, clean painted homes, than when the reverse is true. There is every arguement for home improvement, but none for the philosophy of T don't care"
 Kodiak, as we said before, is picturesque town, nestled in a set ting that stirs the imagination of the artist. Homes are an integral part of that beauty, How they are kept spells out the amount of pride residents have in their com munity.
 Let's make '56-the year to fix.

In steeinead were pro1u. .l over 511, ,000 fry we -.ll., .,el .J the mainland. These .-.A We're locked in Finger, Sundi, Ialkeerna, Crooked, Oscar, Lynn East Berulce, Seventeen Mile, hnlk, West Say, Second Sal amtof, Buffalo Mine, Willow Creek, Louise and live of the Meadow Lakes, all in the Anchorage-Gul- kama area. The remaining 100000 fish were stocked in the BuSkin River and in the vicinity of the Naval Base.
 In 1854, about 2,5Oo,OOO fish were produced. Of this number, 1882, 900 fry and eggs were transported to the mainland and Southeastern Alaska for the planting by the FWS. About 500,00O eggs were sold to the Alaska Department of Fish cries for their Anchorage and Fairbanks hatcheries and the re- maining production was stocked on Kodiak Island and Adak.
 In 1855, the mainland received 7l,000 eggs for distribution in sev- eral lakes in the vicinity of popula- tion centers in Prince William Sound and in Lake Louise. The Al aSka Department of Fisheries re- ceived 100000 eggs and again the remaining production of 1900, ,O00 fish were stocked on Kodiak and Adak Islands.
 The transfer of Kodiak egg-tak- ing and hatchery operation to the Alaska Department of Fisheries, of course, does not change the Fish and Wildlife Services responsibili- ty for sport fisheries in the Ko- diak area or elsewhere. By law, the FWS with the aid of investiga- tlons conducted under the Dingell- Johnson program, are responsible for the management and regula- tion of these resources. The ser vice will continue to exercise juris- diction over these activities on Ko- dak as they do throughout the re- mainder of Alaska.

The harluk camp will be reopened again this year, and the work of egg-taking will be undertaken by members of the Club. A prelimi- nary working party will leave for Karluk April B, to ready the camp for the big task of transferring the eggs from the spawning Steelhead to the hatchery located on the Ma val Station. They will return the following Sunday.
 A fly-tying class was proposed at the meeting of the Club last week, and It. L. R. Broun will be the in- structor. He is commanding officer of the LSM 161.
 The entertainment committee announced that plans are being made for Club clambake in the near future.
 Considerable interest has been evidenced concerning transfer of the Kodiak Fish Hatchery from the Fish and Wildlife Services to the Alaska Department of Fisheries. This hatchery was founded by a combination of individuals and or ganiZations under conditions prob ably unprecedented in the history of the Fish and Wildlife Service.
 The man probably most instru- mental in the hatchery develop ment was Adm. Perry. In the fall fall of 1852, he was commandant of the 17th Naval District and sta- toned here. At his request, the FWS'S sport fishery biologist, Rog- CT Allin, conducted an inveStiga- tiOn to determine the feasibility Of restoring the Buskin River run of steelhead. This river was famous as the best in Alaska, in the opin- ion of experts, before the war.
 During the fall and winter of 1852 a group of military and civil ian sportsmen from the Naval Sta tion organized into the Kodiak Con- servatiOn Club to promote the hat chery objectives. In recompense, persons working on the fish restor- ation operation were provided rec reatiUal trips to the Karluk River, Kodiak Islands famous steelhead stream. That winter the Club per SOnnel put the warehouse into shape and constructed the neces- sary troughs and living quarters for the fish culturist. The follow ing Spring small dam was con- structed to insure steady supply Of good water to the hatchery.
 In May, group of Club mem berS went to the Karluk River and installed weir to catch the down. stream spawning steelhead. This crew, under the direction of Mark Meyer, of the FWS, took ripe fe- males and stripped the eggs from them. This milt from males was poured over the eggs to fertilize them and these eggs were then flown to the Kodiak hatchery by Navy aircraft. The hatchery phase of the operation was supervised by fish culturist Fred Bittle, a FWS man on temporary assignment to this operation from a stateside hatchery.
 During the following summer, a number of lakes on Kodiak and in the Interior were investigated for their stocking potential by Roger Allin. Stocking schedules on the basis of these investigations, were set up and as the fry matched they were planted by Navy helicopter

girl on the train. What day that
must have been-a train ride and
circus. Only never saw the cir
Gus. 1t seems that we were sup
posed to meet our mothers at the
entrance, for it wasn't considered
safe for US to carry enough money
on the train for our admission.
Somehow, we missed them-per-
haps the train was late-at any
rate, when the performance was
over, two forlorn creatures were
found standing outside the tent.
Heart-broken and hungry, for we
had only a banana for lunch, we
made the return trip by automo-
bile. Still many more years later
four school teachers rode all the
way to Wilson in one-seated car
to see the Ringing Brothers Cir
Gus. That time l had the price of
admission with me but went to the
circus hungry because we arrived
too late to get something to eat
in the crowded restaurants before
the performance began. We got
back home in the wee hours of the
morning, still hungry and very
tired, but just as pleased as though
we had all been four years Odds.
Now Ringing Brothers and all
the other circuses are discarding
the big tops and planning on cuts
in the attractions. There will be
no more midways nor indigestible
hot dogs and cotton candy. The
high cost of production has caught
up with the circuses and made the
old way impractical, as it has with
so many other things of an I'M
scientific and more leisurely day.
Perhaps it is all for the best and
denotes progress, but the passing
of something long dear to the
hearts of all ages leaves us Won
dering if all progress is desirable.
