Elks Exalted Ruler Russell Panchot
Urges Display Of Flag On June 14th
Russell Panehot, Exalted Ruler
of Kodiak Elks Lodge No. 1772,
today appealed for display of the
Stars and Stripes throughout the
community on Flag Day, June 14,
that will make every street in Ko
diak a star-spangled salute to free
dom.
The Elks leader announced that
the Flag Day program will be cli
maxed by a public observance ten
tatively scheduled for Friday, the
14th, at 8 p.m. at the Elks Lodge.
Arrangements for this program a id
for community cooperation in the
display of the Flag are being
drawn up by the lodge’s American
ism Committee, headed by Gene
Sundberg.
Exalted Ruler Panehot revealed
that the Elks will cooperate in a
nationwide celebration of the
Fourth of July with the simultane
ous ringing of bells in the commuc
ities from Maine to Alaska in ob
servance of the signing of the Dec
laration of Independence 187 years
ago. The suggestion for a “Let
Freedom Ring” observance of In
dependence Day was proposed b/
two Connecticut men, Eric Hatch
and Eric Sloane, and promptly en
dorsed by the Grand Lodge of Elks
Americanism Committee.
Exalted Ruler Russ Panehot said
that plans for organizing participa
1 tion in the July Fourth observance
here will be announced soon,
i. “We hope that all patriotic cit
izens will join in celebrating Flag
Day and Independence Day in a
spirit of reverent dedication to our
nation’s truly glorious principles,”
Exalted Ruler Russell Panchot
said. “From the Flags and the bells
—the sights and the sounds of free
dom—we can draw renewed faith
and strength to defend those prin
ciples.”
Cope Street
Water Report
By Harry Carter, State Sanitarian
“Several complaints and many
rumors are still being heard with
regard to the purity of the water
in the Cope Street Area and on out
toward the Naval Base.
“This is to advise the people in
that area that the water you are
receiving is from the City’s High
Pressure System and is perfectly
safe for drinking. Up until May 14,
the area was being serviced from
the City Dock Water System.
“When it was discovered that
much hair, grass, seeds, and mis
cellaneous debris had washed down
the hillside into the system, the
City Maintenance personnel
switched to the other water system
and flushed out all the lines in
volved.
“Several months ago, while the
City Dock system was under re
pairs, the exposed ends of the
piping was left for a period of time
and we believed that some sort )f
an animal entered and was sealed
into the system. This would ac
count for the findings of hair in

the water; however, it is only a
supposition and not a proven fact.
“When people from Cope Street
began complaining on May 14,
samples of water and filth were
taken and rushed out to the Naval
Hospital’s laboratory. The purity of
the water for enteric bacteria was
good, although we did identify
other miscellaneous, but non-harm
ful debris.
“Those persons who first called
were advised to boil their water
for a couple of days, because we
were not certain as to the water’s
safety. When asked about typhoid
innoculations, we advised that any
one who has not had them should
have it done. This advice is routine
for all persons who are concerned
about their future good health.
“We are sorry for not mention
ing the water episode in past pub
lications of the paper, but we felt
that the situation was well in hand
and we did not want to stir up any
undue concern among the water
users.”
