highway about 20 miles south of
Anchoiage about closed the road
to traffic. It was cleared enough
by noon Wednesday for one-way
traffic and by evening for two
way passage, Spruce said.
Seward area roads were in fair
winter driving condition as were
those to Homer.
Continued rain and threatened
flooding caused considerable wor

River but reduced temperatures
and cessation of rain removed that
problem for the time being at
least. Spruce said.

recommended.
Flying conditions had improved
considerably by Thursday at the

The City of Kenai is advertis
ing for bids on construction and
and operation of a dog pound. The
scaled bids are to be filed with
City Clerk Frances Toikilsen not
later than the close of business
Dec. 26.
The Kenai City Council recent
ly passed an ordinance requiring
that no dog owner shall keep any
dog within the city limits after
Jan. 1 unless a license for the
animal has been secured.
Licenses are to be issued by
the city clerk at a fee of $2 for
each male or spayed female and
$-1 for each unspayed female. A
metal tag will be issued with each
license and is to be affixed to
the collar of the licensed dog. In
oculation against rabies is re
quired before a license can be
issued.
Impounding of dogs not wear
ing tags has been authorized to
begin Feb. 1 by police officers of
the city. Notice of impounding- is
to be posted on the City Council
bulletin board and if the dog has
not been redeemed by the owner
within five days of posting of
the notice the animal will be sold
or killed.
Dogs may be released to the
owner by the paying of the li
cense fee for the current year,
plus an impounding fee of $2
and an additional charge of $2
per day feeding cost for each
day the dog is impounded.
The city has specified that the
dog pound be kept clean, heated
to a constant temperature of at
least -10 degrees, and feeding ar
rangements must be satisfactory
to the city. The kennel is to be
bounded by secure fences and at
tendants must be available.
The bidder on the pound is
to furnish all labor, equipment
and materials to perform the
work and to provide all facilities
necessary to perform dog pound
services as required by the city,
other than apprehension of the
animals.
The City of Kenai is to con
tract for dog- pound services for
a period not to exceed three years
beginning Jan. 1, 1962, Mrs. Tor
kilsen said.
