RECORD KING CRAB CATCH REPORTED

Preliminary figures reveal that the Alaskan king crab catch tot aled g LOOT. .00o pounds from Jan. 1 through August of 1861, ac- eording to Phil Chitwood, Sup ervisor of Statistics for the Alas ka Dept. of Fish and Game.
 The king crab catch during the same period in 1860 amounted to 20,364 .0o0 lbs.: the total catch for the year i960 was g, ,57o, GOO pounds.
 This large catch will illustrate the increased interest in king crab products and the resulting large expansion of the king crab fishery.
