Shortly before she was found dead, she had entered the curtained-off lavatory and Mrs. Crowell heard her repeatedly flush- ing the toilet. After a few minutes Mrs. Crowell went to investigate and found the woman hanging from the framework. She immediately took steps to revive Mrs. Knorre called a physician, but the woman was dead on his arrival. Mrs. Knorre was employed at Thomas Hardware as a clerk.

BALTZO REPORTS Report of the vessel John N. Cobb, shrimp prospecting in the Juneau area is very promising, As- sistant Regional Director Howard Baltzo said today. The vessel has been shrimping off the southern end of Douglas Island. Baltzo said several 30 minute drags, in from' 40 to 50 fathoms, averaged about 350 pounds of shrimp each of very large sized pinks. He went on to explain that to compare these with commercial drags the catch should be multi- plied by six, as the Cobb uses a 20-foot beam trawl whereas a com- mercial trawl is of about 50 feet. The Cobb drags were of about 30 minute duration and commercial drags are generally of an hour or more. The drags, made in from 60 to 80 fathoms, produced a fair amount of frying-size side strip “However, on the ‘black side’, Baltzo said, “while the south end of Douglas Island showed up so well, drags were made all the way from Auk Bay to Eagle river but each one produced only a few pounds of shrimp.” He added that Taku Inlet was especially disap- pointing as the bottom was found too rough for extensive dragging and the ' few hauls made were relatively non-preductive. This week the John N. Cobb is prospecting in the Lynn Canal and Berner’s Bay to Haines area and will probably return to Juneau early next week. Baltzo said that as soon as the Cobb’s trips are completed a full report will be issued by the Fish and Wildlife Service office on the experiment and copies will be avail- .ple at the FWS office, ~which ahould be in about one month. Sheldon Johnson is skipper of the Cobb and Bob Livingston Is fishery engineer in charge. e FROM SEATTLE G. R. Craig of Seattle is regis- tered at the Baranof Hotel. R. C.
