Brunstad advertised their house for rent for the summer months, and who should rent is but an- other Brunstad. They are not re- lated. Benney Brunstad, a civilian worker at the Naval Station, who recently arrived from Tacoma, is planning to bring his family to Ko- diak for the summer-and so rent ed the house.
 
 There are many instances of a news item or classified ad bring ing long separated relatives to- gether. With all their pulling pow CT, we never thought one of our classified ads could bring two un- related people with a somewhat unusual name such as Brunstad, to- gether, between the faraway points of Tacoma and Kodiak.

Here There Everywhere

Last week we published a com parative list of food prices in AL aska and Seattle. We didn't have any figures for Kodiak at the time, but as many people are interested, we checked the local markets. It costs only $2.521s more for the basket" of groceries than in Seat tie. The total cost was $12.7012 as compared to $10.18 in Seattle. That is lower than anywhere in the ter ritOry with the exception of Ju- neau, which was only 2 cents be- low.

 A girl registered at the Univer- Sity of Alaska, we are told, who came from New York, arrived there with a sleeping bag, parka, hunting knife, a 30.O6, ammuni- ton, jeans and beads, but no dress ap' clothes. The beads she planned to use for barter in her travels around the 4territory. Our inform ant said, "the University would not accept beads in payment of registration or dormitary rent, So Che New Yorker had to write home for some plaia old rasney." It seems travelling is still educational.

The busiest man in town last week was new arrival Rudy Koch. He came here for the express pur- pose of marrying Rose Whinery. Blood tests and the securing of a marriage license, hotel accommo- dations, apartment, etc, kept him busy, after a delay in arriving due to bad weather, when his plane went back to Anchorage. The local Scotland Yard somehow got their wires crossed and had him down as a suspect of some kind (perhaps due to the fact he carries a gun some of the time). His bride-to-be and many of his friends, including also the landlady and others, were thrown into a furor, until inter- views with the Marshal and police clarified the whole situation. II had been told of the friendly peo- pie in Kodiak, before I came here" Koch said, but in my travels, prac- tically around the. world, this is the hottest reception I have ever had"

 Koch, as it turned out, is per haps something out of the ordinary as law abiding citizen. He neither drinks (not even coffee or teal nor smokes, was a boxer with a rubbing acquaintance with Joe Lewis and Jack Dempsey. a former Army man, and a law enforcement officer at one time. He is also a Shriner, and has a wallet full of I. D. cards, What happened to the FBI training received by the local constabulary on Civil Rights?"

Oscar Hanson started it few weeks ago with his resignation as rental manager of the Aleutian Homes. Dick Berg, City Clerk Treasurer since 1854, also resigned. He replaces Drew Painter at Don nelley and Acheson's, who is gO- ing elsewhere.

Christ Church, was met by a
delegation from Richmond and

II did nothing wrong in 1850.
And I do not know Of anyone
who has said that I, personally,

Maryland is this:
please reserve your judgment

Senator Butler said he hoped
to make this speech in Mont

son on Wednesday night talked
about Senator Buffers campaign
against former Democratic SEN
ator Willard E. Tydings in these
terms:
II don't believe the conscience
Of Maryland can be 4quieted until

wrong that was done then. And
by restitution ! mean that those
who profited from the wrong
shall be denied all profit that
they wrested from it."

Placement
Unit After Trip

RICHMOND. Sept. 20 tR.-
Gov. Stanley said yesterday he
will decide on personnel for the
newly created pupil placement
board after he returns to Vir-
ginia from European visit early
in November.
The General Assembly adopted
legislation at a special session
to carry out the Governors anti
integration school program
Among the school bills passed,
one provided for placement of
pupils BY a three-member board.
Il shall give most careful
thought to the selection Of the
board" the Governor said, "and
will try to have it ready by the
time the legislation becomes
law"
This will be in late December,
80 days after the act is signed.
Some Of the acts carry emer-
gency provisions, however. and
become effective when signed.

This will be done tomorrow
when A acts Of the Assembly's
special session win come to the
Governor. He already has signed
~ acts. Less than a score of
the acts make up the school leg
islation requested by Stanley or
added to the package he submit
ted.
Gov. Stanley told reporters
yesterday he would act on all the
matters remaining to be signed.
But this did not rule out the
possibility of veto should he de-
eide to kill any Of the Legisla-
lures enactments. The latter ac-
ton appeared unlikely. although

ceived q few protests to an act
