a curt order to clear the decks.
 The workers turned away re- luctantly.
 The Jeannette F. paid courtesy calls" on several other ships. There was the same enthusiastic recep- ton each time.
 One Russian on a freezer ship signaled that he had something to give the Americans. Serwold guided the Jeanette closer and the Russians dropped eight large frozen halibut on the deck.
 To the American offer to come aboard for bottle of whisky, the Russian captain, plainly wanting to, said in halting English:
 ''No, I cannot"
 The Americans passed it to him in piece of webbing.
 Then suddenly the Russians turned glacial. The decks emptied. They had been given ''the word"
 The Jeannette dragged the area. The net brought up about 1000 pounds of sole and one halibut.

Students to Explore Proper Use of Color Clothing Workshop

Mrs. Jean Burand of the Uni versity of Alaska Extension Ser vice announces that those attend ing the first session of the clo- thing workshop at the LWY Com munity Center yesterday after noon added another phase to the workshop. In deference to the un- animous request of those attend ing, a portion of the Thursday meeting will be devoted to mix ing and matching colors to the best advantage for the wearer. On Thursday the ladies are requested to bring scarves, sweaters and yardage of various colors.
 These fabrics, said Mrs. Burand, should be figured, striped, or checked as well as plain.
 Did you know that design can emphasize or minimize complex ion features; can make your freckles or pimples seem to rise up and shout, or seem to disap- pear magically. Or that color too exactly like that of the skin can make you look like your own grandmother" said Mrs. Burand.
 In each of these cases platter collars are as modern as tomorrow the same garment attractive and pretty for pennies. The big collars are as modern as tomorrow according to the latest fashions.
 Mrs. Burand pointed out that the point in all this color business is that the true tribute is "How lovely you look" rather than What pretty dress" Each part of the picture must take it's place in the picture. In remodelling a garment to fit and serve more satisfactorily the color harmony can bear a little extra thought.
 At Tuesdays meeting it was found that lengthening clothing, making children's clothing from adult garments and sleeve treat ment were the biggest headaches in home alterations.
 Today details were to be given for fly front in little boys trou sers, restyling a skirt, and to find out why the sleeves of a problem dress "just aren't right"
 The chapter on color will be ex- plored from till 4 on Thursday at the LWY Community Center.

By STANTON H. PATTY

Editors note: This is the sec ond of three articles describing the voyage of a Seattle fishing yes sel which made a private scouting trip to report on Russian and Jap anese fishing activities in Alaskan waters. Stanton H. Patty, only | newspaperman aboard, tells today of the meeting with the RussiansD SEATTLE, 1P -- The crew of the Jeannette F. of Seattle headed north in the Boring Sea the after noon of Juy 5 to begin searching for the elusive Russian fishing fleet.
 Only one clue was available: an estimated position reported three days before.
 Fog chung like spiders web around the boat. Squalls were heavy as the Jeannette F. moved toward the shallower, 2O-fathom water.
 The Jeannette F. pushed on through the fog. The radio picked up an English-language broadcast from Radio Moscow - attacking America for "warmongering."
 Well, the music is pretty any how," said Captain Arne Serwold during an intermission of gypsy violins.
 All the next day, July 6, the Jeannette closed the gap toward the pinpoint of ocean where the Russians might be.
 The break came at 1:3O o'clock last Tuesday,
 Three "blips" appeared on the edge of the radar screen. They multiplied in rapid order-6, 10, 12 and then 20.
 This is itr" Serwold declared
 The skipper ordered the Amer ican flag raised. The Jeanette F.. pulsed with excitement. 
 Then the crew saw the dim out lines of the two steel-hulled trawlers. A tattered, faded ham, mer and-sickle banner flew from the stern. of the nearest traWler
 The surprised Russian crew lined the deck.
 The crew of the Jeanette F. waved. The Russians waved back vigorously. The Russian captain motioned the Jeannette F. along side = and then thought better of it and pointed toward the center of the fleet.
 Serwold stopped the Jeannette F. inches from the headquarters ship of the 28-vessel fleet that spread over an area three miles square.
 Women in cotton dresses and workmen in heavy-duty clothing waved gaily from the ship. The women giggled and smiled at the Americans across the water.
 Gifts of cigarettes were ex- changed. The Russians gathered in the American cigarettes. Some ripped them open right away and sniffed the tobacco. 9th CT s clutched the cartons as if to say: 'These are mine alone"
