Cook Inlet Fishing Curtailed

Recent observations, in the view or the Bureau, have shown the need or increased restrictions to prevent iurther depletion of the salmon runs in Cook Inlet, and in addition to the removal of some 20 traps above men toned, closed areas will be increased

Closing Dates

The closing dates for the northern districts have been practically deter mined upon. The Icy Strait district will be again subdivided into an out CT and an inner section, the outer part being closed August and the inner August 6, while the closing for Lynn Canal and the upper end of Chatham Strait will be August 10. The fall fishing season will be elimi- mated in the>Icy Strait district, and limited for the rest of southeast AL aska to Oct l to Is, which will un- doubtedly stop the taking of fall Pinks, though making it possible for small local concerns to take advan- tage of the October Chum run.

in this section, especially around the mouths of streams. Fishing time also will be shortened, the weekly closed period being extended to AS hours.
 The Kodiak area will be defined to include the Afognak Forest and Fish Culture Reserve, which has formerly been excluded. This will not affect the fundamental status of the reserve but will bring the natives and local inhabitants under the same restric- tions as others in this area with re- spect to commercial fishing. Few changes are made in the Prince Will liam Sound area, but the opening date will be changed to June 20, with the main fishing season ending Au- gust 7.N

Purse Seiners Restricted

One of the most striking changes is action to prevent the influx of large purse-seine boats into Alaskan waters, regarding which the Bureaus s policy is shown in the accompanying statement. This is adopted as a con servation measure, but at the same time will tend toward the building up of a local fishery. It will be ac- complished by a regulation to the effect that no boat in excess of 50 feet in length, Customs House meas urement, may be used in operating salmon purse-seiners; but the Boring Sea waters of the Alaska Peninsula area will be exempted from this re- striction. Some additional regula- tion of purse-seine practices has also been under consideration.
The Wrangell sentinel., 1928-12-20
Redistricting Southeast Alaska

A redistricting of Southeast Alaska has been sought by the trade for some time past, and action to this end is being taken on the basis of ex- points in this area for ten years prior to 1924, when there were no seasonal restrictions on fishing. It has been decided to subdivide this area into eight districts instead of the six here tofore in effect. These will be known as the Yakutat, Icy Strait, Western, Eastern, Stikine, Northern Prince of Wales Island, Southern Prince of Waels Island, and Southern districts Opening and closing dates for each district will be specified in the new regulations, and will vary somewhat from the dates previously in effect.
 The new arrangement is expected to secure more even escapement throughout the area, and a somewhat larger total escapement than before. The traps eliminated will include es- pecially those affecting the run to streams in certain bays. In this con- nection the comment is made that there has been a very poor escape ment on the east side of Behm Canal. where it has been considered advis- able to eliminate about IT traps. It is said that the past seasons escape ment in some parts of southeast AL aska was not in keeping with the volume of the run.

new BIRD HOUSE
At zoo OPEN

The 100000 bird house at Zoo
Park has been completed and was
opened to the public today. Many
new bird specimens have been re-
ceived at the park during recent
weeks In anticipation OF the en-
Iarged facilities and the exhibit
there is now one of the finest in
the country.
About Is per cent OF the birds
already have been transported there
from the old quarters.
The interior OF the new building
is now completed and a contract
will soon be let for the outside
cages. To date about $135, 900 has
been spent on the project and it
is expected that the outer cages will
cost about $4,000.
Among the new species which
have come in are g. young cas-
sowary, which is very different
from the other species already 1ll
the collection, and a flock of six
Nicobar pigeons.
The easiest approach to the new
bird house is from the Connecticut

THAMES YIELDS
AGE-OLD DATA
~ international News Service


LONDON, Aug. 2S.-Remans of
thu first Romano.British pile vii
lage found in England, estimated
to be about 1000 years old, have
been uncovered by archaeologists
at Rrentford, on the banks OF the
Thames River.
Experts estimate the site was
occupied by Bronze Age men as
early as 500 B. c.
The discovery has settled prob
lem which has exercised expert
opinion here for so years. namely,
how did the innumerable axe heads,
bronze swords, knives and razors
get into the rivar at Brentford? OF
the two suggestions, that they
were dropped by. prehistoric men
fording the river or are natural
relics from an inhabited site, the
latter is now accepted as the true
one.
George F.. Lawrence, a. we'll
known English archaeologist, is
responsible for the discovery. With
20 laborers, he toiled in oozy mud
for two weeks, digging trenches
and draining off the accumulated
silt of centuries.
The remains OF the village con-
sists of q small stretch OF wicker
work, evidently the floor Of hut.
The structure proved that Q. damp
course was no novelty to primitive
mai 1000 years ago. A foot OF
CLAW, which kept the hut dry, was
sandwiched between two wicker
work carpets. BY the side Of the
rwickerwork were Roman tiles
which had evidently come from
the roof.
