ments, but unofficial observers thought this less probable since the Kuriles islands arrangement.
 Cite Four Reasons
 Although outright annexation of the former Japanese-Inandated isle andS by the United States would invite ardent debate both in and out of this country, proponents of unilateral trusteeship feel that they could make Q strong case based on:
 First, the fact that the positive retention of them Is vitally neces- Sary to the security of the Philip pines, Hawai-, and the mainland of America.
 Second, that their small popula- ton does not necessarily require the imposition of an international truSteeShip system based on broad social and economic arrangements
 Third, that the United States in at least three different stages of history has manifested an interest in the Caroline and Mariana archi- pelagoS, which failed to find real- ization because of obscure inter- ization because of obscure inter- national arrangements to which this country was not e party.
 Fourth, that annexation by this country would not jeopardize sec ctirity or interest of other powers.

 Simpson had good taste of touch-and-go operations in his nae vel reserve career during the war, He was mine disposal officer. AS such he found a great need for un- derwater photography to lessen the hazards of his work, and although simpson was just Ar average attlS ateur photographer before entering the service, he became the NRvy'B most experienced and bestsquali- 4led expert on this type of photo work.
 The 2s-year-old Lynchburg, Va, officer stopped here on his way to Pearl harbor, where he will train his team of 10 or l6 men in the technique of taking photographs in full diving rigs while 70 to 100 feet beneath the surface. Some 1000 pounds of photo equipment will 60 out with simpson, including ten cameras valued ct more than SlO,00O apiece.

 Generally speaking, the first day of fishing was Q good one for most hshermeh, in spite of the chilly start up to noon. According to State Warden Seth Monroe, fishing in the Litch1leld County was good during Friday, but not too good Saturday and Sunday.
 State Warden Ray Piaggi Of the Hartford area, reported that the heaviest flShed and most productive stream In that district was the Sandy Brook. At one particular time of the day one warden counted 3i4 anglers on this stream.
 The Salmon Brook was not too good in the morning but form noon on, as the weather got warmer, fSh- Ing became Ideal, Quite c few fiSh- errnen also frequented this stream, one of whom was our own Bob Humphrey who caught three trout, as c start for the season.
 One of the most popular points in Hartford area Is the Howell Pond which provided good fishing also on the first day. According to Warden Piaggi, the Pennington River was . little disappointing on the opening day but 1t should furnish better fishing, being heavily stocked.

. Hunting
 and Fishing
 By GENE VALLON

WE'LL, HOW MANY DID YOU GETp
 The fishing season was ushered in last Friday and reports from dif- ferent anglers varied considerably, The usual stories were heard about the ones that got away and the ones that didn't. One that didn't was told by Joe Alanskas Up Walnut Street way. Joe spent the early part of his day up the Shepaug River and claims that his prize trout measured seventeen inches (I7"). Maybe so, but your writer comes from Missouri.
 On another occasion during last Friday, your writer was able to ob- serve in true Missouri fashion a few fine catches. Being a party of five jovial fishermen, the day was far from uneventful. The day of fishing started at a. m. on the Shepaug, where Tony Wyrebeck caught the first trout: Mario Ragoz- zino the biggest (lS"); Al Irwin, Jr. the most (D; and ripper Harnick and your writer the least. But that was up to l2 noon, during which time the cold morning air and water of the Shepaug offered little incen- tive to the sticktuitiveness of the ''never-say-die" angler.
 With seven trout among us, our party of five invaded the waters of the Pomperaug River only to enc counter the greatest congregation of fishermen ever assembled on one stream. Fishing conditions there were ideal from the water and ata mospheric standpoint and one would think 1t would be foolish to leave. In fact, everybody and his uncle must have thought the same thing because the crowd never seemed to diminish. Consequently. rods. lead- CTS and lines were tangling and i've iRg all over the place, with an opti- thistle angler occasionally shrleking of a bite that usually turned out to be an off-cast hook either caught on 8 branch. or tugging at your writer's fedora.
 But in spite of ali this. t was the waters. of the Pomperaug that afforded ripper Harnick the two trout that comprised his days catch. and also another trout for Al ogwln's creel. So ct . o'clock
