Fish And Wildlife Service Closes Nine Fish Traps
(By Vern Haugland)

GAP Special Washington Service)
 WASHINGTON, (P -Alaskans who voted last year for the grad ual elimination of fish traps from Territorial waters will realize a part of their goal next summer.
 The fish and wildlife service said today that for local conserva- tion reasons nine traps along the mainland in the eastern district where the salmon runs have been most seriously depleted-will be closed.
 All other types of fishing in the same waters, except trolling, are likewise prohibited in order that the runs may be rebuilt.
 Gradual elimination of fish traps was approved by an 8-to-1 majority of Alaskan voters in a Territorial referendum.
 Seton Thompson chief of Alas kan fisheries for the fish and wild life service, said in announcing the 1949 Alaskan commercial fish ing regulations that an act of Con- gress would be necessary to com plete such action. Delegate Bart lett has introduced legislation for their elimination.
 Several major changes have been incorporated into the regula- tions for Southeastern Alaska, Thompson said.
 The general trap and seine sea- sons were set for Aug. 22-Sept. 4 in the Icy Strait, western and eastern districts, and for Aug. 15- Sept. 3 in the Sumner Strait,

Navy We'll Pleased With Maneuvers At Kodiak

SEATTLE, (P)-No ice shroud- ed the guns of first navy units re- turning to Seattle yesterday from Alaska cold weather maneuvers in the Kodiak area.
 "They were too hit for ice" said a crew man batting a gun aboard one of the hard-hitting navy rocket" ships berthed at Pier 91. "As a matter of fact we were all too busy to notice whe- ther it was cold or not"
 A gray convoy of 12 units from the first task fleet stopped here to take on fuel and stores before going on to California ports. Other fleet vessels sailed directly south.
 Capt. M. M. Riker, senior off cer of the group, said he could speak only on the performance of vessels and personnel under his supervision, and these, he declar- ed, were quite sati ctory throughout the North Pacific war games.
 Eighteen thousand sailors and marines aboard 34 ships engaged in the wide-scale tests of mock war under adverse weather condi- tions. Vessels ranged from the

MarOOned Wreck Victims Build

CORDOVA, (P)-A woman and two men, grounded on their power barge since Monday, have built a makeshift shack on treacherous Grass Island, aerial observers re- ported yesterday.
 MT. and Mrs. Fred Haword and their son-in-law, Robert Zentmire waved to the plane from their plywood and timber shelter and indicated they were not suffering
 Merle Smith, Cordova Air Serv- ice president who flew with three observers, said a 60-mile north wind was blowing off the Cooper River delta and holding breakers to a minimum, although spray from the combers had iced down the barge, the North Cloud, from stem to stern.
 He warned that the breakers were picking up in severity due to rising southeast wind and that the marooned party would "be in

Truman Crins; Is Satisfied With "S.O.B." Reactions

WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman declared yesterday that the Marshall Plan should be push ed forward until European recOV- eryh is assured - the full four years if necessary, but with due recognition that it may take less time.
 He expressed pleasure over the Israel-Egypt armistice.
 And he told a news conference that he isn't taking back a word or a letter-of his denunciation of critics of his official family.
 When reporters asked what re- action had been received to his Tuesday night speech declaring that no IS. O. G." was going to tell him whom to hire or fire in the government, MT. Truman grinned.
 The reactions, he said, were very satisfactory to him.
 Drew Pearson, columnist and radio commentator had criticized MT. Truman's army aide, Maj. Gen. Harry H. Vaughan, for ac- cepting a decoration from Presi- dent Peron of Argentina.
 The Marshall Plan comment was. called forth by questions about yesterdays statement from British spokesman in the United Nations, to the effect that Britain has reached the point of ceasing to be concerned with recovery and is now interested in long

 And the capacity crowd cheer ed as he declared that special in terests" on Capitol Hill may com pei him to board train again soon "to tell the people how their government is getting on." The Republicans, the President charged, want to destroy the farm Continued on Page Four)

CAY Nearly Saves
 Wrong Village

ANCHORAGE-The Tenth Res cue Squadron nearly rescued the wrong village when it sent a Jato- equipped CAY with food and SUD- plies to Hooper Bay.
 This was the story the crew told on themselves when they return ed from their mercy mission re- gently. Flying over terrain that looked no different for as far as they could see, they took their shipload of supplies down when they winged over a large group of natives.
 They thought they were at Hooper Bay where Father O'Con- nor of the mission there, had sent world that stocks were dangerous ly low.
 Fortunately some one thought to ask where they were.
 The place turned out to be Kie- yak, 25 miles this side of Hooper's Bay.
 [ A hundred gallons of gas and some minutes later the much needed supplies were brought down at the proper destination, bringing joy and gratitude from Father O'Connor and some 300 na- tive people.

LONDON, Dec. 23-tR- Britain the United States and Canada an- nounced today plan for standard izing their arms and military train ing.
 The program is aimed at cor- recting and eliminating technical differences which interfered with easy cooperation of the three powers in two world wars.
 It's purpose is to permit swift integration of their men and arms into a smoothly y-functioning mili- tary machine in event of another international conflict.
 Leftist forces in Britain opposed this cooperation, and in Parlia- mentary debates called the move towards arms standardization an aggressive weapon aimed at Soviet Russia.
 In connection with the standard ization studies there have been fre- quent exchanges of military per- sonnel between the two nations on operations levels.
 American pilots have been as- signed to fly and study Britain's jet bombers.

BRING SplTBALl BACK, PIRATE
 MANAGER SAYS

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 23-tRl Pittsburgh Pirate Manager Billy Meyer advocates the revival of the spitball in baseball to help the ritckers catch up with the batters.
 But the gray-haired skipper, re- laxing at his suburban home here yesterday, said he didn't see much possibility of the spitter's return because "the fans want big scores" ]"
 The trend in sports, he went on, $ toward zig scores.
 Its part or prosperity, I guess. The public wants more and more, the age of abundance. The same thing is happening in football and basketball"
 Meyer advanced three reasons why he thinks the spitball should be legalized:
 l. It would improve pitching and baseball.
 2. It would eliminate a lot of wrangling and speed up games.
 3. It would help second division clubs to take up the slack and tighten the races.
 Meyer conceded the return of the spitball might open "the way for cheating on all those old freak de- liveries." But he added that a cer- tain amount of cheating goes on all the time"
