Teenage Program
Worker Candidate
For School Post
Phil Anderson
The father of six children, five
of whom are enrolled in the Ko
diak Independent School District,
Phil Anderson, is one of the two
candidates seeking a post on the
Board of Education.
Anderson, born in Phoenix, Ari
zona, came to Alaska 12 years ago
and has lived in Kodiak for the
past three years where he and his
wife, Doris, have been active in
organizing the Kodiak Youth Or
ganization.
He is presently employed oy
Kodiak Telephone Company but
has also worked for Kodiak West
ward Construction company and
the State Highway Department
here.
The Andersons moved to Kodiak
from Fairbanks where he was a
member of the police department,
and where he became interested
in young people and their prob
lems.
Anderson is of the opinion that
Kodiak has a good school system,
but that teachers should have more
authority to handle discipline and
that the district should have a tru
ant officer and social worker com
bination to handle delinquency
and truancy problems.

Delay Volunteers
Police Chief Says
Cooperation of all Kodiak resi
dents lias been asked by the Vol
unteer Fire Department and
Chief of Police R. E. Vickery to
refrain from calling about fire
locations after the siren has
sounded at least five minutes.
“The volunteers call the police
number to receive the location of
the fire and when somebody else
is using the line it ties the vol
unteers up,” the Chief said, add
ing, “and this delay could be
costly in fire damage or human
lives.”
“We don’t mind giving the in
formation—but please hold up
for five minutes after the siren
sounds,” he concluded.
State To Fight
Steamship’s Ten
Per Cent Raise
“There will be no change in
the State's position regarding
rate increases by the Alaska
Steamship Company and the
State will continue to urge the
Federal Maritime Commission to
revoke these increases,” Attor
ney General George Hayes said
this week.
Hayes said that when Alaska
Steamship raised its freight
rates by 10 per cent in January,
I960, the State protested this in
crease to the Commission, “in
an effort to get at the facts re
garding Alaska transportation
costs.”
At a hearing this week, Alaska
Steamship officials said that it
would be necessary to reduce
service to many Alaskan towns
if the 10 per cent increase is re
voked by the Maritime Commis
sion.
There are parents who have chil
dren who spend money faster than
the parents can earn it.

Benson Recovering
From Operation
Bennie Benson, designer of
the Alaska State Flag as a Ko
diak youngster, underwent ma
jor surgery in Seattle in the
Virginia Mason Hospital Wednes
day is apparently in satisfactory
condition, although in surgery
eight hours.
Benson, an employe of Kodiak
Airways, had an operation to cor
rect a serious constriction of the
main abdominal Aorta. He has
also been under care for a
Straph infection.
It was thought at first that am
putation of one leg might have
been necessary, according to re
ports, but this is believed to
have been avoided.
The Kodiak Chamber, Thurs
day voted to send flowers and a
“get-well” telegram to Benson.
