Bash Pilot Flies In Blasting Caps
The City airport was brought
one step closer to completion on
Wednesday after Chuck Weir, pilot
for Harvey Flying Service, made
a charter flight to Anchorage to
pick up six cases of electrically
detonated dynamite blasting caps.
Because of the nature of the cargo,
it could not be transported on a
regular commercial aircraft.
Special preparations made in
Anchorage for the flight took
longer than the flight itself. The
caps were wrapped in lead foil
to reduce the danger of chance
detonation. Special permits were
obtained from the Federal Avia
tion Agency for clearance for the
flight and detours around radar
and radio installations. Weather
reports were given to the pilot
“in the blind’, as he was not per
mitted to use his radio transmitter
during the flight.
UDINE, ITALY Uh — Caterina
Tonizzo has become a Grand

She married and gave birth to
a daughter in 1945, when she was
15. The daughter, Luciana, marri

Most of the trip was made in
poor weather, with snow from
Anchorage to Homer, and extreme
turbulence from Shuyak until the
landing in Kodiak. The ski-equipp
ed plane landed on Big Lake, ad
jacent to the new airport.

This Ship Last
For West Coast
Before Christmas
The Alaska Steamship vessel
Thursday will 'be the last one carry
ing Christmas packages for the
West coast, Postmaster Wm.
Lamme pointed out today, and
beginning Monday surface pack
ages will be held for it. As it will
not arrive in Seattle until about
Dec. 18 it will be too late for as
sured delivery of packages to
distant points in the States, he
added, and from today on packages
should be airmailed to be sure they
will arrive in time for Christmas.
As 4 cent Christmas cards go
by air only by space availability,
and by surface in the States, all
should be mailed by Dec. 5, Post
master Lamme said.
All air packages should be mail
ed by Dec. 10 and all airmail cards
by Dec. 15.
All cards and packages for
Kodiak island points should be
mailed by Dec. 16 for assured de
livery.
“Again this year we have placed
mailing labels, marked Local and
Out of Town, in the boxes to be
used on Christmas cards, Mr. Lam
me sad. “Use of these will help us
expedite the deluge of cards be
tween now and '"'iristmas. Quanti
ties of cards, in boxes, bags or by
the handful should be handed in at
the post office windows as this
saves hand facing and enables us
to tie out more direct packages
of cards.”
“Already many packages have
been presented for mailing inade
quately wrapped. It takes strong
twine, strong paper and a good
strong carton to withstand over
seas shipping. Just imagine five
sacks of 80 pounds each on top of
your package, and prepare it ac
cordingly.”
“Many people ask if surface
packages will be air-lifted at the
last momfent. This has not been
done in the past and is not being
done this year.”

corresponding with friends, tell
ing them about Kodiak, and the
beautiful scenery here. No, we
haven’t fished as much as we want
to but Ronnie caught one of the
biggest silvers anyone has caught
on Kodiak. It was so large we had
to put it in the bathtub; it was
almost the length of the tub.”
Chief McDuffie added that the
Vice President of the Shakespeare
Company was in town at the time
and was fascinated by the size of
the fish. “He has written twice
since then to ask about our fisher
man. We will have some pictures
soon, but Jean cooked it so we
can’t show him to you. You will
find that Jean will do anything
for anyone, or talk about anything,
but not about herself.”
