PAGE EIGHT FIRST BLACKOUT SHOWED LACK OF COORDINATION A definite lack of ccordination between the military at Elmendorf Field, Anchorage, and the local civil defense council marked the first blackout last ht for the Juneau-Douglas area in exercises “Firestep.” The simulated air raid was to oc- cur at 11:40 p.m., according to ad- vance inform n received by th Alaska National 4 headquar ters. The civil defense council had been given information that the air raid was to occur at 10:10 p.m The first warning of an air raid came from the CAA tower at the airport at 10:42 pm, 16 minutes after the signal had been received I' at_the tower. With the realization ) that the alert signal was given the conelusion of the supposed s raid, the all-clear was given at 10 pam., 13 minutes after the black- out signal was given on the fire siren. Lights Are On Lights were left on in variou parts of the Ju -Douglas area during the inte 1 between the; alert and all-cle siren signals Prominent lights along the wate front were the Coast Gua Cutter Storis. \The Baranof hotel and other secticns of Juneau were obvious by not turning off lights when the alert signal sounded. Street lights in Juneau were flashed on and off twice during the blackout. The landing lights at the airport were not turned off untilj the all-clear signal was sounded. | Approximately six cars violated the blackout by traveling with lights. ‘The six Boy Scouts who are to be used as runners between ' thi: civil defense headquarters and dis- trict headquarters during a black out reported immediately after LhL‘ blackout signa! was given. on‘ Scouté’ reporting were Dick Pegue , Dick Rountree, Jim Vavalis, Rober. Harris, Don Abel, Eric Beach. “Hams” on Alert The amateur radio circuit to be used in an emergency came on the airand stayed on during last night's [fii-nuon “Hams” reporting at the ] defense headquarters to oper- ate radio set maintained therz g.;en Allen, Jim Langdon and Leo#@sterman, w'e is the possibility of one or mowealerts and blackouts during the rem#ifiing three days of the Juneau portion of exercise “Firestep.” The Auk Bay residents were not| aware of any blackout or alert last night because of the inability to hear the CAA siren at the airport. ~EMPIRE WANT ADS PAY BILL RILEY SERVICES Riley will be held in the Carter i chapel at 2 o'clock tomarrow after- noon with the Rev.
