Muscles and the importance of
keeping them exercised was the
topic Tuesday at the Rotary lun
cheon at the Island Fountain of
Nick Peters, registered phy&io
ijjierapist for the Elks, who visits
Kodiak every two weeks from
Anchorage.
The-.first requirement, Mr. Pe
ters^ said, is that the patient be
alivfe''(?,}, that he overcome the
natural lazy streak evryone is born
with, and that he adopt a moder
ate program and stick to it.
Muscles without use atrophy,1
he pointed out, and modern living
isn’t designed to help at all. Every
one. today drives his car even for
a block or two, he said, and the
legs don’t get exercise. Few activi
ties today do anything for the
arms and shoulders and the stom
ach, he Said, is the weakest part
of all; only exercise will keep the
muscles in tone.
Mr. Peters contrasted the life
of only a few years ago with the
sedentary life of today, pointing
out that even children, who used
to walk to and from school and
came home with chores to do, now
are carted by bus or vehicle and
on coming home plop in front of
a TV set. s ,
Exercise alone, exercise in a
family group or vffe supervised
groups can 'be obtained by all? he
said,, but so often the mistake is
made of starting out too vigorous
ly with resulting soreness and
discouragement. Mr. Peters scof
fed at me clinical means where
machines are expected to do the
work while the patient lies and
takes it* 5
A second talk was given by A1
Hochberger, vice president of the
Bank of Kodiak, who told of the
joys and tribulations of the bank
ing business. Touching briefly on
his personal experiences, he told
of being raised on a farm in Iowa,
of majoring in business adminis

tration and banking at Iowa Uni
versity and of his beginnings as a
bank clerk in a smalltown Iowa
bank. All of his life, he said, has
been directly in banking, with em
phasis on loans, except for 4 years
as a county treasurer and service
with the National Banking De
partment in his state.
Bankerjiochberger said he was
one pfctb^sejpersons who had long
dreahfe# o| coming to Alaska, and
that in the early l940’s he almost
made it to Anchorage but affairs
prevented it. Following that he
was given the opportunity of be
ing put in charge of a bank that
was in trouble and after 7 years
had it back in good health. Then
the opening came at Kodiak and
this time he made his Alaska
dream come true.
He said sometimes, especially in
the loan department, there were
moments of what he described as
bitterness that made one wonder
if banking was worthwhile, but
that dealing with people of all
walks of life, of being so many
times able to help solve personal
and business problems, and of be
ing thus able to furnish a real
service to the community, soon re
solved any doubts and outweighed
any disadvantages.
Following the meeting the new
directors met and elected officers
for the next Rotary year beginning
in July. They are: president, Pete
Ramaglia, Union Oil, previous
vice-president; vice-president, Art
Brooks, Kodiak Insurance com
pany; treasurer, Walter Muller,
undertaker and businessman, re
elected; and secretary,.. William
Stone, superintendent of the Bap
tist Mission home. , ;
