NORTHERN DISTRICT TRAP TAKE I5 GOOD
 ON OPENING DAYS
Thin Salmon Run May De. lay Opening Season
 in Outside Waters

Early reports of the average trar catch of pink salmon in the north ern districts are gratifying ac- cording to George Kelez, Fisheries Supervisor of the U. s. Fish and Wildlife Service.
 These are accumulated fish, commented Kelez. The question is, Will the catch stand up?' Re- turns for the first three days are not complete, but they seem to indicate a good commercial season.
 Everything is obviously much better than last year he continued. Compared to the cycle year, the early-season showing is at 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 location as in previous years.
 By the end of the week, we should have a good picture" he added
 Asked about the chances of delayed opening of the western dis trict (outside waters off Baranof Island), Kelez said Tt still looks thin there. Unless 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 Conner Hilsinger, FWS enforce ment agent at Sitka, who is mak- ing surveys aboard the Scoter.

Burglary Trade
Proves Improbable
In County This Week

Burglars had a very unprofit-
able night in Milford Center,
Monday, as they netted Sc in
change and a pistol from three
business places, according to
Sheriff Walter Galloway.
The money, mostly pennies,
was taken fom Brill's Shoe Shop
and a French Service pistol was
taken from the Ohio Grain Co.
office. The third place broken
into yielded nothing although a
window frame was damaged. All
entries were made through forced
windows.
Another improbable raid was
made on the Turner Foundry in
Marysville, Wednesday night, be-
tween midnight and 6 a. m. En-
trance was gained through slid
ing door that was pried open.
Those who ply the breaking and
entering trade will be faced with
starvation if the hauls do not in
crease for the grand total of these
four robberies can hardly be
claSsed as living wage.
