Dr. John Aiken Flanders, o! Chi
cago, accompanied by Douglas Clem
ons, left today for Mile 23, where hf
will be joined Saturday by the “Mai
emute Kid” from Anchorage, with a
15-dog team that will carry the Doc
tor to his new home on the shores ol
Kasilof Lake.
Dr. Flanders is an eminent surgeon
one of the heroic figures of the Amer
ican Army in France, where he served
two years. He was severely wounded
many times, gassed and shell-shocked
when operating in a hospital on the
Front, which was shelled and ther
bombed by the Germans, althougl
roof and flags showred the Red Cross
Of 86 men at this station, 80 diet
around him, while Dr. Flanders, cut
ting knife still poised over a patient
was hurled over an operating table
the knife entering his own abdomei
and by half an inch missing a vita
entrance. During another furiou:
bombardment, he operated steadly
without rest, for 73 hours, until finall;
falling exhausted, to be in turn borm
out on a stretcher.
He was persuaded last summer, b;
Gordon Jones, an Alaska Packers As
sociation manager, to visit Cook In

joined by his nephew, also an ovei
seas veteran. A large amount o
dressed lumber, windows, and othe
material has now been ordered, to b
lined up the river in the spring, wher
a comfortable lodge will be built, wit
a laboratory and facilities tor medica
research work.
Recently Dr. Flanders was sun
moned as a material witness in a Kf
nai murder case to the court term a
Valdez. Leaving there, he was hel
by weather conditions in Seldovia fo
18 days, making several attempts t
reach the mouth of Kasilof rivei
without success. He had to return t
Seward on the Northwestern, havin
meanwhile from excitement and th
change from his quiet mountain r<
treat, suffered one of the sinkin
spells to which victims of gas an
shell shock are subject. He was ver
ill on arriving here, but determine
to undertake the long, hard trip hom<
The party expects to be aided fror
Skilak lake by guides George Nelso
and Henry Lucas, as the snow is dee
and there is no trail.
