UTTW FROM DR. - PROVONSH.A
Hocer Tho®ppn, manager of
the PUD, received the follow-,
ing letter on Tuesday fro® Dr.
Jack Provonsha who is to take
charge of the Health Center.
'Thank you very ®uch for
your letter of the 25th ex
pi aining present si tuation
with r:egard to the clijnic.
"We are frankly a little
distressed by the delay, not
so »uch fro® the short ti®e
involved by the tentative date
you set, as fro® the possib
tlity that if that is your
tentative starting date that
the cli nic wi 11 not be fi ni sh-.
#| this winter at all. I have
lone some building in Alaska,
tyself, and a® not unaquainted
with the pr:oble®s one can run
Into.
TIf there is any real pos
sibility that the building
will not begin at that ti®e,
and consequently not until
next spring in all prrobabil
uty, I think that it is only
fair that we be appraised of
that fact relatively soon. I
have written to Seldovia and
should have a reply before
long. Perhaps we can go there
for the ti®e being.
"We are postponing our ar
rival there bya®ont.h or two.
The Dr. whose office we are
operating while he is in the
service will be delayed alit
tle, and since the clinic
won't be ready anyway, we
have felt it wise to stay
here just a little longer.

"We shall'be ^mosfc anxious
to hear how things progress.
I hope you are at least get”
ting equipment ordered for
the clinic so that if we have
to set up temporarily in the
hotel we can have '‘something
to work with. I suppose we
could use Seldovia as our
headquarters while we are
waiting for quarters, and
serve Homer from there with
®.y plane. We shall be await”,
ing further word.
Sincerely,
Jack W. P.rovonsha, M.D."
Thompson states that Dr.
frovonsha will be furnished
all information possible such
as to renting space in the

He will continue to be infor”
med regularly of construction

PUD MEETING
The topic of pay for long”,
shoremen for the tankers that
tie up at the Homer dock came
in for considerable discus*
si on Monday night at the r eg*,
ular meeting of the board of
directors,
Hugh Watson, dock manager,
pointed out that the RID was
being forced to pay the wages
of four men to tie up and to
untie the tankers, a job
which he said might take half
an hour at the most, but the
men were paid for the total
tine the tankers are in port,,
usually about four hours.
The directors agreed that
something night be done about
such a situation and included
in the dock policy which is
to be written by Homer Thomp*
son, PUD manager.
Further discussion was held
concerning the dumping of gar”,
bage off the dock by the A*
lastca Fresh company. * It was
noted by Watson that things
other than crab shells were
being dumped off the dock. It
was also deaided to write to
the department of health con*,
earning the dumping of any
thing off the dock as there
is a question as to whether
permission has been g^ianted
to dump anything from the
dock.
Blanche Hunter, bookkeeper
for the PUD, turned in a let*
ter of resignation effective
July 16 to the board and the
resignation was accepted with
instructions to the manager
that a letter of commendation
be written to Mrs. Hunter for
services rendered.
