EXTENDED SEASON WRANGELL
NARROWS YIELDS POOR CATCH

Approximately $4,000 fish were
taken from Wrangell Narrows dur
ing the Is day extended season
which closed last Saturday, accord
ing to A. P. Romine, local agent
for the Bureau of Fisheries.
Two-thirds of the catch were
canned locally by the ARB Packing
