Capt. John Backland Pilot of Arctic Expeditions Dies of Heart Attack

SEATTLE LR Capt. John Backland, 58, who formerly piled the Arctic and Boring Seas in the famed four-masted sailing schoon- CT C. s. Holmes, died of a heart attack Sunday night at his Bain- bridge Island home.
 A native of Birmingham, Eng land, Backland went to sea at the age of IA with his father, Capt. John Backland, Sr., pioneer mariner in the Arctic.
 At 26, when his father became ill, Backland skippered the sail ing ship to Point Barrow. Until 1922 he sailed the schooner on an- nual northern supply voyages. During World War II as a Naval reserve captain he handled some landings in the Mariannas. Later he became chief ice pilot of the Navy's Arctic expeditions.

 But the northern people were getting along fine before we moved in. And now I think we should do all we can to pay them back"
 "We all know this is not enough" said Rep Nusunginya. But at least it will break the barrier"
 But the most poignant remarks came from Rep. Jacob Stalker, who closed the 35-minute debate on the bill.
 'I never had more than a 9th grade education" said Stalker.
 Every day when I study these bills, Mir. Parsons knows I must borrow his dictionary, because mine isn't big enough.

'lce Bloc" Being Sold a Bill of Goods For Construction of Vocational School

JUNEAU lR - Rep. James C. Parsons told the "Ice Bloc" on the floor of the House yesterday that it was being "sold a bill of goods" in the $1.5 million bond bill for the construction of a Vo- cational School north of the Yu- kOn River.
 The bill passed by vote of 38-2, with Reps. Forbes L. Baker, an outspoken foe of bonding, joining Parsons in opposition.
 Parsons said that the $1.5 mil lion would not begin to build and maintain an adequate school such as that planned.
 "It would take at least $10 mil lion to staff and maintain such a school" Parsons said. "The money appropriated here would probably build only very nice basement"
 No Adequate Study Made
 TafSOnS cnar9ed that no ade- quate study had been made on the school, and that the State De- partment of Education had not been consulted as to it's plans.
 He said that experts say that the secondary level of education should be kept as close to home as possible, and that such voca- tional training should be part of a comprehensive force of study such as that offered by regular high schools
 Proponents argued, however, that the measure would provide a long overdue start on a great need among the native people of the Interior,
 "I realize that it is easy to spend borrowed money, and hard to pay it back" said Rep. R. w.

was any place quite as dark-no
street lights, few lights of any kind.
Dan bumped into Bossy and he al
ways maintain she kissed him.
Whatever the reason, there was
strong opposition to the COW using
the main throughfare as her trail,
and the ordinance was passed. But
apparently, the bovine population
didn't know anything about ordin-
ances, and fancy regulations
dreamed up by any two-legged an
imal, so they kept on doing what
they had been doing for centuries
and what came naturally. 1t wasn't
a problem that could be licked
overnight.
In the Dec. 6 issue of the Mirror
it stated that Bryan Thorsheim
appeared before the Council and
asked that additional time be ex-
tended to him in which to remove
his cows off the city streets.
The Mayor instructed Mr.. Thor
sheim ito meet with that particular
committee and expressed a willing
ness that such extension be granted
if the urgency of the request neces-
STATED so doing.
In the Dee. 20 issue we read that
Councilman Becker stated that all
cattle owners had signified their in
tention of having their cows, ETC.,
off the streets by Dec. 18th. The
city ordinance will be effective
on that date, and owners will be
subject to fine, should their stock
be found wandering around on the
streets.

Cows Once Had Right Of Way In Kodiak
Time honored Custom Hard to Stop

The lowly cow may be regarded
as symbolic of the progress of Ko-
diak.
In the early days here she was a
contented creature even far away
from the Carnation people. She
was content to roam the streets of
Kodiak at will.
The appearance of the bovines
as they roamed the streets wasn't
the only objection to them. No
doubt their presence lent pas
toral glow that was not without
beauty. Even for those from dairy
ing states such as Wisconsin, Wash
ington and others, received nos
talgic uplift from the sight of them.
One of the first acts of the new
City Council following incorpora-
ton was to pass an ordinance pro-
hibiting Livestock running at
large"
They adhered to the line from
Ibid: "a cow is a very good animal
in the field; but we turn him out of
garden" And gardens they did
get into. Imagine all the Difficult
ties of cultivating a garden-vol-
canic ash, short season, short on
sunshine, long on rain, children,
dogs, cats, and a few more that
could be mentioned, and on top of
that old Bossy comes tramping in
with nary regard for the esthetic,
or the smell of flower. It could
make a genuine flower lover see
red.
This wasn't the only objection,
however. Cows have way of max.
ing a big splatter wherever they go
And it doesn't matter where OF
when. This was regarded as highly
unsanitary.
Unsanitary or not, this WASH
conducive to good appearance
No matter how a man may strive
to fit himself out, completely anC
regally fitted out right rown to his
polished shoes, he will sometime OF
other make an error in judgment,
and no amount of eau de cologne or
anything else that he might use,
would convince anyone with sensi-
tive nostrils that he wasn't a farm
boy.
1t wasn't that people were I'M
friendly to the COW. I'm sure she
received many pat on the back as
she ambled down the main drag.
They in turn were friendly crea-
lures, too. Dan Noonan, who many
of you know, tells the story of how
he was walking down through town
one evening, and it was pitchdark
