School, Registration Doubles
In Soldatna; 248 Students
Now Enrolled i'm 8 Grades

Soldatna school registration of
248 students on the first day of
school, Sept. 5, more than doubled
the number of children enrolled
on Sept. 6 last year when the
new school building was opened
for use for the first time. Total
registration to date this year is
for Grades 1 through 8, inclusive,
according to Charley Griffin,
superintendent.
This is gain of La students
over initial enrolment figures
for September 1860. The gain can
partly, but not entirely, be cred
tied to the fact that the 7th and
9Th grades are now being taught
in Soldatna this year while last
year students in those grades
were taken by bus to Kenai
schools, Griffin said. There was
no room in Kenai schools this
year for the additional grades
from Soldatna.
Two rooms have been rented
from NJ. L. Red" Grange in his
newly constructed office building
back of the Central Kenai PENN
sula Medical Clinic and which is
near the school building. They
will be used by the two upper
grades. HIGH school students are

The Kenai Chamber of Com
meree voted Wednesday to re-
quest Jack Randall of Cooper
Landing, TO call a peninsula-wlde
Council meeting to work up
comprehensive plan of area de-

Redevelopment Act committee IN
the near future. Randall is presl-
dent of the Kenai Peninsula
Council of Chambers. 1t is being
requested that he set the pro-
posed meeting sometime during
the week of Sept. 1928.
District Y, which includes the
entire Kenai Peninsula, was one
of two areas in Alaska recently
designated by ARA as eligible
for financial assistance in devel-
oping the complete area. Seasonal
nature of work of peninsula resi-
dents results in a chronic under
employment problem. Anchorage
with its chronic problem of un-
employment was the second area
designated by ARA.
It also was voted at the Kenai

EAR HQUAkE HITS KEMAI
Peninsula Center
OF Near Major
Shock Tuesday

kenai Peninsula residents were
alarmingly iolted from thei=
slumber about lbs am. Tuesday
by an earthquake that lasted ar
proximately r minutes and mar
roWly missed being scaled as
shock of major magnitude.
A long rolling rumble preceded
the more severe jolt which was
followed by a second tremor Of
lesser intensity. In addition to
shattered nerves, minor damage
was reported IN Homer, Kenai
and Soldatna.
Tuesdays early morning shock
was rated by the California IN
stitute of Technology as being
of a magnitude of 81. The same
scale lists major shocks at I or
higher.
In Kenai, two water lines lead
ing from we'll We're broken at
the Kenai Laundry and caused d
shutdown of business until they
were repaired few hours later.
Riley Pope at Hartley's De-
partment Store in Kenai reported
lamps We're shaken from the
shelves and that shoes, guns and
some displays were knocked down.
Pope, who lives above the store,
said he looked out of the window
and that the new Hartley mobile
homes next to the building were
rocking back and forth. Dishes
were knocked from shelves and
cupboards in many homes.
Howard,s "Yo Service in Sol
datna reported a broken window
and the quake caused large
crack in the cement floor. It also
was reported that local liquor
store in Soldatna lost several
bottles of liquor that were broken
when they were dislodged from
the shelves.
Evan Belnap, superintendent of
Homer Electric Co., said power
was disrupted for about 5 min
utes between Kasilof substation
and Cooper Lake but was ener-
gized again at Cooper Lake about
the time Homer Electric was pre-
pairing to switch to the emergency
power plant at Homer. Although
he had not been to Cooper Lake
and there IS no telephone con-
neetion between the two stations,
Belnap thought the power stop
page may have been caused from
fuse that had been shaken
loose.
Considerable glass was broken
at Homer and water pipe dam
age was reported. The Inlet Trad
ing Post at Homer also had many
items knocked over and some
breakage resulted.
According to the Fairbanks
Coast and Geodetic Survey, the
center of the tremblor was in the
Kenai Peninsula. Government
sci m logists in Washington,
d. c.. where the quake was re-
corded at 7:34 Eastern Daylight
Time, placed the curve in the
upper part Of the Aleutian Islands
and said their charts indicated
it occurred some 25-35 miles be-
meath the surface of the earth
and about 1000 miles northeast
of Washington.
Available evidence rated the
quake as being from natural
causes and not from nuclear ex-
plosion as many feared.

the main is governed by whether
the mans ability to meet his
obligations is impaired by reason
OF entering service.
Some of the specific protec-
tons offered are:
L. Dependents are not to be
evicted from their dwelling if
rental is $50 per month or less,
except upon leave of a court.
2. If the serviceman defaults
after entering service the credi-
tor may not terminate the con-
tract, repossess the property, or
foreclose the mortgage except by
legal action.
3. Protection of the court, in
Guiding the appointment of an
attorney, should a serviceman
fail to defend himself in a liti-
cation.
The basic point to remember
is that the court must decide how
much the mans ability to pay
has been reduced because Of his
being in active service.
