First In Alaska
Skipper Bill Winekoop (r.) of the limit seiner Sebanus is pictured
with his engineer, Mike Pudmaroff (1.) and Pete Deveau standing
in front of the newly-installed, radically-improved antenna of his
Raytheon 1900 model marine radar. Installed by Deveau, owner of
Deveau Electronics, the model 1900 Raytheon is “the result of two
years of research ... it is tailormade for the severe weather condi
tions of the Kodiak Island area.” According to Deveau, “Kodiak
fishermen have long been plagued with the problem of salt crust
formation and icing-up conditions which would render their elec
tronic gear inoperative and necessitate expensive maintenance.”
“The nw model 1900 Raytheon was especially designed to cope with
these problems in the Kodiak area fisheries. The antenna is sealed
in a plastic cover and so designed as to require a minimum of space
thereby making is especially mechanically feasible for installation
aboard small boats. It has a built-in de-icer and heater unit and a
range of from Vz mile to 12 miles, Deveau said.

Rotary Informed
Of CAP Program
Since Its Origin
A history of the Civil Air Patrol
was described, Tuesday, to the Ko
diak Rotarians by Second Lt. Mar
garet Cook who also showed a film
of the organization’s operation in
Alaska.
Lt. Cook said that the CAP is
an auxiliary of the U.S. Air Force
and was born on Dec. 1, 1941—a
week before Pearl Harbor. From
that date until the end of the War
the organization flew more than
24 million miles and that 26 CAP
pilots or observers were killed,
seven injured and 173 subs sighted.
The organization has a three-fold
mission, she pointed out, (1)
search and rescue, (2) aerospace
education for cadets and (3) com
munications.
A recently released color film
of the CAP rescue operations in
Alaska was also shown to the Ro
tary members.
Kodiak P.0. Gets
First ‘Dear Santa’
Letter This Week
Just when Postmaster William
Lamme was getting material to
gether for this year’s “Mail Early”
campaign, one little patron jumped
the gun on him and mailed one of
the earliest letters to Santa Claus
the local post office has ever re
ceived.
The little girl wrote:
“Dear Santa:
“I would like a Barbie and Ken
set and some clothes and a case for
Christmas. I would like a walking
doll.
“I would like a piano.”
Then the young patron made an
envelope out of some writing pa
per, put her return address on it
and carefully addressed it to “Mr.
Santa Claus, North Pole.”
But just like a lot of adults, she
forgot one thing. She forgot to put
a stamp on it.
Postmaster Lamme says he
thinks because the young patron
is so early that Santa Claus won’t
mind paying postage due this time.
