BRIGHTER OUTLOOK FOR FISH AT KODIAK FOR NEXT SALMON SEASON

SEATTLE Az A Drlghter note was sounded for the Alaska Peninsula and Kodiak fisheries than for other Alaska areas at yes terday's session here on Alaska fish regulations for next year.
 Most of the speakers agreed that the Peninsula salmon runs are re- building and the area won't be fished quite so long in 1854 because next year will be an off-cycle year.
 However, there was general a. greement that fishing in Prince William Sound must be cut far down or shut off entirely in 1854.
 Fish and Wildlife Service of ficials admitted that Cook Inl fishing was good but insisted five-day weekly closure would be necessary to. keep modern gear from crowding in to fish the area out.

But it isn't what the Barnes do which make them so much ap- preciated as the cheerful way in which they do it. Many of their tasks are just what good parents do in any well ordered home.
 Physical Education
 In a recent issue of the Wrangell Institute school paper, The Wran- gell Eagle, Miss Juliann Boskoffsky outlined the girls physical educa- tion program after an interview with the instructor, Miss Janet Snow. Juliann's article is of gener- al interest, hence I'm passing it on to Sentinel readers in this column:
 
 These are the main subjects the girls will do this year in the gym nasium. First we are going to start the team games. The main team games are basketball, softball, and volley ball. In each of these games there will be an all-star team sell ected which will play Wrangell, and there will be intramurals here at the Institute.
 Individual competition is plan ned for badminton and table ten his. We will play both doubles and singles.
 If enough girls sign up for bat ons, baton twirling will be taught in the spring.
 Cheer leaders will be selected a. bout Nov. 13. Five will be chosen |, by judges. As many as possible should try out.
 Square dancing will be given. To see how well the dances have been learned, a party may be held with awards given for the best set, the best student caller, the most orig inal square dance and so on.
 Simple folk dances from America and other countries will give some idea of recreation in and the back ground of these places. It is hoped that costumes can be duplicated al- so.
 Possibly play-day can be held in the spring when others from the town will participate in athletic ev- ents from races for the smallest to softball games for the oldest. We hope to have a good group for each game, and I'm sure we will.
 We will have an item for the boys physical education in our next newspaper, so if you're inter ested in knowing please keep on the lookout for it in our next paper.

Hostilities Ceased

It's a long time ago since the message was flashed "hostilities ceased vessels light restrictions removed" It signaled the end of World War I - or an armistice, which history proved it to be, fol- lowed by World ar II and more re- gently, the Korean clash.
 Time and another war has faded the nations effort in the conflict that ended on November II, 1918, and next Wednesday we come again to an anniversary the 35th of Armistice Day.
 Though the years have rolled on, may we still have time in this troubled age to pause briefly in tri- bute to the men who sacrificed their lives to bring an Armistice to World War I.

WRANGELL GILLNETTER HAS NARROW SQUEAK: LOSES BOAT, EBONY

Franklin D. Barr of the Ebony, who has been gillnetting on the Stikine with his brother Chris, who had the bowpicker Fury. had a close call a week ago on Puget Sound. The following appeared in the Seattle Post Intelligencer:
 Franklin D. Barr, 27, commer- cial fisherman, donned a heavy sweater to eat breakfast this morn ing, but he still shivered from the frigid swim he took last night in Puget Sound to escape flames a. board his gillnetter. Ebony.
 The 32-foot boat, valued at S10.- 900 burned to the waterline and sank. Barr was alone aboard. He lives at 652S 18th Ave N. E.
 T was forward picking up nets about o'clock" Barr related. q heard an explosion and the cabin burst into flames. l took one look and dived overheard.
 ''That water was cold. I don't think was in very long. Somebody in another boat pulled me out don't even know who it was"
 The mishap occurred while Barr was fishing off Port Madison.
 The Coast Guard said tho crew of anothe boat fishing nearby res cued Barr and took him to Seattle He was chilled but uninjured.

and make the unemployment fund, into which employers pay 2.7 per cent of wages at no cost to the em- ployees, last.
 Big drain from the fund is go- ing Outside and resident Alaska workmen may be left holding the bag if the fund doesn't last For eX- ample, a workman comes up from the States on a contracting job and becomes eligible for a tap at the fund when unemployed because his employer is paying into it
 Suppose he works for several months on a seasonal job and goel back to his home in the States but can't find a job. He might have a nestegged a few thousand dollars and even have it in the sock but he can still apply for Alaska eOmpen- sation while unemployed and get it. Many do, and that's the major drain.
 One skilled workman in the Ter IilOIy "Ol hlhS at oCaoOAHA 1AABACJ ment was making close to $40 a day for a limited time. His wife quit hers, and they went to Arizona for the winter. Both were able to col feet Alaska unemployment compen- sation for 26 weeks and enjoyed a nice winter in sunny climes with ASC paying most of the bill. The situation is not unique to Alaska. Many of the states have a similar problem, but it isn't making ESC's headache any milder. One of these times something will have tC

 Miss Kirchner is a long time res ident of Alaska, and has been sta tioned at several places in the Ter ritory. She was for several years in charge of the Barrow hospital. Her last assignment was at Mt. Edge cumbe.
 New Help
 If there were to be talk about who helps most to keep Wrangell Institute operating smoothly, one would undoubtedly think of MT. and Mrs. Clarence Barnes who were added to the staff in June of 1853. Mir. Barnes official title is Chauf- feur and Supply, and Mrs. Barnes is Relief Matron and Store Manag- Ter. Regardless of titles, however, Regardless of the titles, however, whenever either children or other staff members need help of almost any kind they automatically turn to the Barnes and then without fuss or fanfare things have a way of going right again. More friendly or more accommodating associates would be hard to imagine.
 Mir. Barnes takes the children to town, gets the mail, picks uT freight, and delivers supplies to the many departments. Mrs Barnes op-

MEETS HERE
 WITH LOCAL FIsHMEE

John L. Farley. director Of the T.. Is. Fish and Wildlife Service. accom- panied by Regional Director Clar- ence J. Rhode. was in Wrangell for several hours Sunday afternoon and met with local fishermen in the FWS office on fishery problems.
 Director Farley. newly appointed to the job, succeeding Al Day, was on his first visit to the Territory as fisheries head. but not his first trip to Alaska. During the war he was with the Army pushing sup plies northwards had been in Wrangell a couple of times and did a long hitch in the Aleutian chain.
 Didn't get to see too much of Wrangell.' he remarked. "as every body was pushing in the war effort then, but l always recall this fine looking harbor"
 Farley, long a public relations man with the Crown-ZeIIerbach pa per company. told the fishermen FWs could not differentiate as be- tween kind of gear. for example, traps vs. seines, when asked why traps could not be eliminated. In answer to the question of why nothing was done after Alaskans voted nine to one for elimination of traps. he replied that, of course. you are a Territory" adding that. the fishery belonged to all the peo- pie of the United States and there fore, under Jurisdiction of Congress. Elimination of gear. he said, was a matter for congressional action
