Delivery Offered
A Seattle firm has written
>Vallis George offering him a
:old storage plant and promis
.ng deliver of it to Kodiak for
installation this season.
Paul E. Bangasser, presi
dent of Bangasser and As
sociates, Inc., of Seattle,
wrote the letter to George and
sent a carbon copy to the
iVIIRROR.
“Our attention has been
directed to the recent articles
n the Kodiak MIRROR re
garding the problems you are
having with the early con
struction and completion of
the proposed cold storage
plant at Kodiak’’, Bangasser
wrote.
| . . .clients oi ours have aj
large plant which we believe i
would be very suitable for
your operation. It could be
moved to Kodiak, ” the letter
continued.
Bangasser went on to ex
plain that if George was
interested in an “outside pro-'
position” and if this plant
meets with the approval of
George and the stockholders,
and if the negotiations are
completed without delay, the
plant could be ready for use
this season.
Bangasser asked George for
specifications on the amount
of space and what type and
daily capacity “sharp” freeze
he wanted. He also asked for
the daily ice making require
ments and amount of storage
required for ice.
George recently wrote to
local stockholders informing'
them that he planned to hold
a stockholders and directors
meeting within a few weeks.
He did not mention Bangas
ser’s letter in his letter to
local stockholders,
Bangasser further inquired,
in his letter to George, regard
ing a financing program to
amortize the investment.
However, he did not give the
present location of the plant.

On Kodiak Island
Two mountain goats were
released at Hidden Basin in
Ugak Bay on Kodiak Island
this week by the U. S. Fish

are the first mountain goats to
be placed on the island.
The goats are males, one
kid and the other full grown.
They were caught near Se

Kodiak in a U. S. Fish and
Wildlife Service plane.
The FWS plans to bring
more goats to the island. They
