Rats On Increase
Due To Dumping
The dumping recently of kitchen
scraps and other edible garbage on
the old dump site on Mission Road
has resulted in an increase in the
rat population on the dump, ac
cording to City officials.
It is unlawful to dump any
edible garbage on the old dump.
Measures were taken some time
ago to curb the rat population
there. “If the practice continues,”
Richard Pace, Sanitarian here,
stated “expensive control measures
will become necessary. Any person
convicted of discarding edible
garbage on the old dump site will
be severely prosecuted.
“The City maintains a sanitary
fill where persons living outside
the City may dump their garbage,”
he continued. He asks that persons
dump on the face of the fill be
tween the roped off area. Garbage
may be dumped any day of the
week between the hours of 7 a.m.
and 3 p.m.
At the present time the State
Health Department and the U. S.
Fish and Wildlife Service are plan
ning an extensive rat control pro
gram to be put into operation this
fall. Pace urged all citizens to co
operate in ridding the town of
rats.
KARLUK VISIT
(Continued from Page 2)
Fisheries representative in the
area.
Freda and I visited with Mrs.
Noyia, who recently returned to
Karluk after a serious operation
in Anchorage. She is gaining
strength rapidly and looks very
well. Garry and Gloria, the two
children of her daughter, Julia
Knagin, came with her to spend
the summer. We three climbed the
hill to the Russian Church. The
long climb was eased by the new
steps put in last year. This pictur
esque church commands the view
of Old and New Karluk, divided
by the spit and the fine, new
swinging bridge. Across the strait
can be seen the snow capped moun
tains of the mainland. Joe Brown,
storekeeper, postmaster and radio
operator, was busy restocking the
candy shelf when we came in.
Even though it was Sunday the
store was open, because the purse
seiners were to leave that night.
This area can only fish three days
a week until Aug. 20. The 4th of
July we all went up river taking
Mrs. Lektonin, Ta-ta and Alex
Brown, who is the village Chief.

A wonderful day for a picnic. After
our return, Alex took time to
meet the Pete Waselies and the
Herman Malutins. Mrs. Noyia was
also there, as was Olga Aga and
her little girl.
Tuesday morning I went down to
the spit and watched the “beach
crew” set the seine. This was ex
tremely interesting for me and I
took several pictures. They use a
large winch that brings in the net.
