 Hence, the egg planting pro- ject on Afognak Island which be- gan with construction of fish lad ders in some of the streams leading to Pauls Basin. In one major stream, Laura Creek, ladder was built, allowing salmon to ascend in gradual stages over 12-foot water fall, an insurmountable barrier to most tired salmon. Eggs were then planted by hand in the gravel of Pauls Basin in the same manner as mother salmon would have spawned them. To prove out the problem and solution a project of this kind must be continued for a period of years; with success, the egg stocking can be continued or not, as the increase of fish war ants.

In another experiment of this type in 1858, when eggs were not readily availabel to stock tribu- tary stream of Frazer Lake on Ko- diak Island, some ripe red salmon from nearby stream were put in a 10-gallon drum of water chilled by blocks of ice, and were flown in the passenger seat of Super cub to Midway Creek where they were released by hand.

 These two examples of water shed management and manage ment biology working hand in hand, are typical of the specialized and custom treatment of the prob lems handled by the Department, each problem different and yet part of the whole problem of re-

 During the 1950's, shrimp re- search was started on a small scale, then expanded when the Depart ment discovered more shrimp beds than anyone dreamed existed in this area. In 1858 newly invented shrimp peeler suddenly made this tiny crustacean economically feas- able, and thus an important indus try is being developed in Kodiak. In 1854 the Department began the study of King crab; today it is one of the major industries of Kodiak and the city has declared itself King Crab Capital of the World.
 Other projects were begun, or expanded, among them educational films to aquaint the public with the need for conservation meas ures. AS it happened, some of the films describing the fishing indus try also served as promotional films for the industry and the re- zion and some towns. The King Crab Story is outstanding in this respect.

Creation of the Territory of
 Alaska's first Department of Fish
 cries and the Fisheries Board in
 1949 meant for Alaska greater
 concentration of local research in
 the fields Of commercial and sport
 fisheries, and long range planning
 for rebuilding the fish population
 until sustained maximum yields
 could be realized. This latter, of
 course, is yet a goal for the future.
 Little by little, a few steps at a
 time, with the understanding and cooperation of the Federal agency,
 the Fish and Wildlife Service, a
 few changes in management oc-
 cured; with wise recommends tions by the local fishermen, can nery operators, and businessmen who sat on the Fisheries board, coupled with the findings of re- searchers of the Department of Fisheries, some more local control of fishing was possible.
 Each year also brought expan- sion of watershed management which has flTthered the life span an d spawning capabilities of salmon. In the Westward area, which includes the Kodiak area, an example of watershed prof. ect will explain the meaning of that kind of management and how it makes it possible to breed more salmon.
 Salmon lay their eggs on the grayelly beaches of freshwater streams and lakes. From millions of eggs fraction survive, become fingerlings, live for a year, or several years in the waters of their birth before they go down stream and out to sea. When ma ture, those that survive without being eaten by seals, walruses, killer whales and other large fish, or are not caught by fishermen, return to spawn in the same lakes or streams in which they were ,, born. There is nothing haphazard about the Salm0n's choice of breed ,, ing ground of the thousands .. of possibilities he chooses that one waterway that leads to his birth :. place.
 Many choice spawning grounds r lie unused because the streams leading to them are choked with S dams of natures happenstance or r beavers designs. or often because h waterfalls, too steep for even the a doughty salmon, impede the way. l. Access to the inaccessible spawn c ing grounds would eventually al- 2

Drama Editor Of The Star

A friend of ours, the Voice
of America, introduced us to
Anne Bancroft last week and
we couldn't be more grateful.
The Voice was a little sur
priSed that we did not know
Miss Bancroft. Coming to
think of it, we were too, con-
sidering how relatively short
are the beats walked by ac-
tresses and drama depart
ments. In time, everyone
meets everyone else, at Sar-
dis or backstage. or some
where.
The Voice thought it
would be nice If we shared a
microphone and a reel of
tape with Miss Bancroft, the
latter to spin some of her
reflections around the world
on such subjects as the the
ater and the problems Of the
deaf. Miss Bancroft learned
a lot about both playing the
role of Annie Sullivan, Helen
Keller's teacher, in "The
Miracle Worker"
Being an intense person,
an Italian behind that stage
name. she became a dedicate
to all things having to do
with the rehabilitation Of
those who cannot hear. This,
indeed, was what brought
her to Washington, a meet
ing on the subject.
Winning Honesty
Over the years, we have
made a number of tape ac-
quaintances, some of whom
have become old friends by
now. Miss Bancroft we count
among the new ones. Two
more tapes could give her
permanent possession Of us
in the tape department. They
might even be unnecessary.
A couple of her more win
ming qualities that instantly
showed themselves are an
almost shocking honesty and
that she is full Of surprises.
We had heard, for in
stance, that her seven years
in Hollywood were melan-
choly.
II loved every minute Of
them," she declared. MY
pictures? I did whatever they
asked me to do, and enjoyed
every one of them. What
ever else they were. they were
work. I love work, quite
apart from the money. OF
course, looking back on
Hollywood and the girl I was
then, I realize I wasn't at all
smart. I'm smarter now, a
little. and maybe I'd feel diff
ferently but. of course, I'm
just guessing. I'll never
know"
