He said he thought the indus| could afford to lay off one year. Year Cycle “Fish have a five year cycle,”| said Commissioner Bell. “The| 1920 run was practically a milurei and the 1925 run was little better, Be! | i but in 1930 the run was as flat Pipe at the same instant when he| as a pancake. I want to see what a complete layoff will do.” Commissioner Bell said it is re- ported the Pribiloff seal harvest is expected to be about 60,000 skins in comparison with 54,000 taken last year. l Boon to Industry | The announcement of the Bris-' tol Bay closing was made at a meeting of the Pacific Canned) Salmon Association and it regard- ed as a boon to the canning and marketing departments of the in- dust; E. the B.

KARL KLENKE ELECTROCUTED LATE FRIDAY Touches Water Pipe with Chin While Cutting Light Wire with Pliers Klenke, Twelfth Street T and crusher foreman at the Alaska-Juneau mine, was ac- cidentally electrocuted late Yyes- afternoon, dying as the re- f the shock. Exact details of the accident could not be ascertained, as Mr. Klenke was alone at the time. Karl ident sult the | However, a reconstruction of the| accident- was made by Dr. H. C. DeVigne and the position of the body and the burns indicated that Mr. Klenke had crawled beneath the kitchen sink to repair electric wiring. In his hands the dead man held a pair of pliers with which he was in the act of cutting a wire. A burn on the chin showed that he must have touched a water gripped on the pliers, thus making a complete circuit. His body was found by Mrs Klenke wupon returning to the house after being away for some time. Dr. DeVighne was called at 6:45, and he estimated the time of death at about an hour or less before his arrival, making the accident at 5:45 or 6 o'clock. e FISHING PARTIES PLANNED ON SUNDAY Numerous fishine and outing parties are being organized today for the entertainment of officer: and men over the week-end. Any Juneau people who desire to take navy men on drives or trips tomorrow, but who are not ac quainted with them can make con- tact through the Chamber of Com- merce information booths.

They've had fine fishing so far, and ex- | pect even better before their re- | 1. All of their sport will serve as material for stori n the Sat- |{urday Evening Post, Collier's | Weekly and Vanity Fair. | The party arrived in Juneau at 13 p. m. today aboard the Pacific | Alaska Airways Ford plane, with Joe Barrows, acting manager of the airways company, Pilot S.

Mr. Ford, who writes as John Riddell on occasions when the | pseudonym is desired for pro- tection, was unable to say any- thing especially funny about his trip so far, he said, explaining that what he had seen of Alaska has been much too impressive to be funny about. “Salt Water Taffy,” Mr. Ford's | parody on Joan Lowell's ‘“Cradle |of the Deep,” was one of the hu- | morous best sellers a few years ago. Mr. Ford's short stories and | articles appear frequently in Sat- urday Evening Post, Vanity Fair and other magazines. While in Juneau today, Ford | and MacBain were busy gathering information about fishing spots and tackle and swapping stories with 'A. B. Hayes, manager of the Al- | aska Southern Airways, who en- 'rolled the virtues of Lake Hassel- borg where they plan to fish upon their return to Juneau. —— e S E. E.
