v PAGE EIGHT ] NORTHERN DISTRICT | CHAMBER PLANS Increase in Bus - TRAP TAKE IS 6GOOD = GCOD WILL TOUR; ON OPENING DAYS Thin Salmon Run May De- lay Opening Season in Outside Waters Early reports of the average trap catch of pink salmon in the north- ern districts are “gratifyl ac- cording to George Kelez, Fisherie Supervisor of the 1 S. Fish and Wildlife Service. “These are accumulated 1ish commented Kelez “The auestion is, ‘Will the catch stand up?’ Re- turns for the first three days are not complete, but seem to indicate a good commercial season “Everything is obviously much better than t year,” he continued “Compared to the cycle year, the early-season showing isat or above that of 1947 so far. When all the returns are in, the comparison can be a close one, as the sampling is of traps in the same iocation as in previous years. “By the end of the week, we should have a good picture,” he added. Asked about the chances of a delayed opening of the western dis- trict (outside waters off Baranof Island), Kelez said, “It still looks thin there. rless the showing picks up, it is possible that a closure will be maintained for sev- eral days after the scheduled open- ing Monday With Frank W. Hynes, Fisheries Biologist, and Mitchell G. Hana- van, pink salmon investigator, Kel- ez flew to Sitka today. The trip was for observation, and to warn fishermen that a closure might be impending Observations are being made by parties aboard a FWS airplane and the patrol boat Brant, as well as by Gomer Hilsinger, FWS enforce- ment agent at Sitka, who is mak- ing surveys aboard the Scoter.
