Skip Fletcher of Seward and
young son, Skippy, arrived here
Monday to spend alt least a week.
Skip is visiting his mother, Mrs.
Ina Fletcher, and brothers Rusty
and Raymond while he takes care
of Orpheum Theatre business . . .
His wife, Marie, and their two
younger children remained in Sew
ard where the Fletchers’ operate
the theatre ...
We will miss Michael Daniels,
who has been one of our newsboys
for the past two years, as well as
a cheerful, polite and willing
helper at the office at times . . .
Michael accompanied his parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Ray Daniels, and his
sister when they left for the South
48 Tuesday . . . Mr. Daniels, who
has been stationed at Kodiak Naval
Station, has been transferred to
San Diego, where the family will
live. Michael informed us that he
regrets leaving Kodiak “Where I’ve
had so much fun”. He add.ed that
he will especially miss going to
school here because “The Kodiak
schools are so much better than
those in California” . . . Good luck
to Michael and his family . . .
A six-year-old boy who arrived
in Anchorage last week from Ath
ens, Greece, has a new father and
mother and a new way of life in
Cordova . . . The youngster, An
drew (Andreas in Greek), has been
adopted by a former resident of
Kodiak and her husband. Many in
Kodiak fondly remember Ramona
Moffitt, who taught first graders
here several years ago . . . The
Harold Moffitt family moved to
Cordova and Ramona began teach
ing there. Harold Moffitt died a
few years ago and Ramona has
since remarried. She is now Mrs.
Edward Kolenut ... We are quite
certain that young Andrew, who
left his natural mother and 9-year
old sister in Athens, and has a 4
year-old brother who has been
adopted by a New York family,
will lave a very happy home . . .
Ramona has a deep affection for,
and understanding of, children .. .
Our very best wishes to Mr. and
Mrs. Kolenut and their new son ..
Happy Birthday to Her Majesty
(Whoops, we really meant DEP
UTY MAGISTRATE) Mabel Fen

many, many more and may they all
be happy ones ...
Eskimoes Have
Fallout Shelters
One Alaska community has fam
ily fallout shelters built and most
of the 88 residents live in them for
eight months annually.
Little Diomede Island Eskimos
live in underground homes which
are ideal fallout shelters. Earl Tin
key, an Alaska construction inspec
tor, reports.
Tinkey was at the island village,
which is just two miles distance
from Russian-held Big Diomede
Island in the Bering Straits, in
1960. He supervised the construe
tion of a National Guard armory
fthere as an inspector for the U. S.
Army Engineer District. Alaska.
"Long before there was a fallout
menace, the Diomede Islanders
built their homes underground and
provisioned them to wait out the
long Arctic winters.” he says.
In the Spring, the islanders emi
grate to the Alaska mainland and
return in the Fall. They have to
leave the island when the snow
melts, because it is' their only
source of water.
Charity may cover a multiple
of sins, but an afternoon bridge
covers a stream of gossip.
