 First landing of halibut to be held under bond by the local cold storage for the Prince Rupert Co., operative was made this past week by the 79-foot Pacific Wave out of Vancouver, B.C. Skipper Milton Bush advised that he delivered 105,000 pounds described this as fairly good fishing" While out on the grounds he said they saw few Japanese whalers a large factory ship and several smaller, but still good-sized harpoon boats"
 t
 In for one day again this year was the 78-foot St. Michael skip pered by M. J. Evich who said "Ko- diak's waterfront looks buster than ever." The St. Michael is under a research charter for the Interna- tional Halibut Commission and has three marine biologists aboard this trip. She departed July 5th and will be covering the area from Ko- diak Island east to Cape Spencer with her 250-fathom drags. Al though they keep record of all bottom fish taken, only the halibut are tagged.

Standard Oil was busy early this week with numerous halibut yes sells moored down there, according to George Magnuson who is in charge during the absence of Mer- Till Coon who is vacationing in the states with his wife Louise and son Corky Refueling were: the big boat Brisk, skippered by her own CT, Nils Farsted; Skipper-owner Gordon Gerde's Atlantic; the Re- coyery, skippered by her owner, E. Hansen; and the Canadian hail but boat Laredo out of Vancouver, B.C.( whose skipper and owner is Anton Brosic). Also tied up down there on Monday was the Univer- Sity of Washington Research Yes Sel Storm.

 t
 Into port last week with radar troubles was Skipper Dick Sutter- lin's 74-foot Pacific Pearl which has been shrimping in nearby wa ters. Kodiakans might remember Paul Johnson who was here ear Her this spring and is now crew. man aboard the Pacific Pearl along with Ed Warness and Al Ciacolino. Paul said they planned to head to- ward Two-Headed Island area.

 The big Richard D came into the boat harbor the 29th and will be going back out shortly according to Skipper Barney Corgatelli. We're in for some minor repairs l. fishing has been fair," he ad- vised. New crew member aboard is husky young Travis Murphy.
 J
 Most recent addition to the sports-fishing pleasure fleet in the small boat harbor is the trim little Dorothy P. Another distinction she holds is that she is Kodiak-built. Skipper D. B. Ard, who in partner ship with Jerry Redick is opening a new garage at Thorsheim and Benson Avenue corner, took an old metal navy lifeboat and com pletely rebuilt it into the sporty Dorothy F. Skipper Ard and his two sons, Larry 16, and Donald 15, did all the work themselves includ- ing installation of 4cylinder Graymarine 40 hp engine all

Alongside the St. Michael was the 66-foot halibut boat Pacific Belle skippered by W. J. Pitre. She is another Canadian boat out of Vancouver, B. C., which made a delivery during the early part of last week.
 t
 Another research vessel, the 85- foot Ocean Pride, skippered by amiable Carl H gland, was also in over the 4th of July Under charter by the University of Wash ington for salmon research with her 385-foot seine, she is one of eight boats engaged in salmon re- search this year-there are four Canadian boats using long lines and four American vessels using Seines. Skipper Haugland reported he was able to closely observe one of three Russian trawlers fishing in the gulf. They were about 28O- foot to 300-foot long and taking aboard ocean perch" which he de scribed as being red colored fish.

 Boys down at the cold storage have been busy glazing fish during most of this week and preparing about a quarter of million pounds Of halibut for shipment out on Alaska Steamships Coastal Mon. arch.

Thousands Cheer u. S. Astronout
On Return to Cape ConoveroI
Continued From Page Al

staged on an outdoor platform
under a warm, blue, Florida sky.
About 100 chairs were set out in
five rows for special guests.
Col. Glenn's heat-scored cap
sule, Friendship 7, stood on a
low platform near the stage.
On a somewhat higher plat
form, the unsullied capsule of
Maj. Donald K. Slayton stood.
At the moment, Maj. Slayton's
Spacecraft is known only as
Number 18" as Friendship z
was Number 13" before Col.
Glenn gave it a name.
Maj. Slayton said he had not
yet decided on a name. What
ever the name, it is part of the
Mercury tradition now that it
will have a number 7 in it. This
is the one-man crews recogni-
tion Of the fact that this is not
an individual, but a team effort.
Second Meeting
This was the second Glenn
Kennedy meeting. The astro-
naut visited the White House
two weeks before his flight.
After the ceremony, Col.
Glenn showed Mr.. Kennedy the
two space capsules thanking the
speakers stand.
The two took a close look at
Col. Glenn's Friendship Z and
the astronaut gave the Presi-
dent detailed explanation of
the decision to leave the pack
age of reverse rockets on after
they had fired to slow him
down and bring him down from
orbit.
Tells of Signals
Col. Glenn said a false sig
nal was received at a ground
station indicating that an ex-
plosive squib which separates
the heat shield after re-entry
had fired prematurely.
There was danger, Col. Glenn
said, that if the reverse pack
age were jettisoned as planned
the heat shield would have
fallen off too and he would
have been burned up in the
terrific friction heat as his
craft came back into the at
mosphere. As long as the re-
verse rocket package remained
attached, it would restrain the
shield from dropping.
While the President and the
astronaut chatted, they were
Joined by Dr.. Wernher Won
Braun, former German rocket
expert who heads NASA's Mar
shall Space Flight Center in
Huntsville, Ala. 4.
Mr.. Kennedy then returned
to his plane for the return triN
to Palm Beach, taking eff at
1908 pm.
Mr.. Kennedy flew here from
Palm Beach, arriving at 1927 |,
am. Col. Glenn arrived 10 min
utes earlier by motorcade from
Patrick Air Force Base, IA miles
south of here.
Motor Motorcade
Soon after reaching Patrick
Air Force Base, Col. Glenn took
off on a motorcade through the
seacoast town of Cocoa Beach,
which regards itself as Space
port USA."
Then came the start of the
official day-the meeting with
the President, a tour of the
Cape, including the Mercury
pad from which he rocketed
three days into orbit and the
control center from which his
course was guided for nearly
five narrowing hours.

receiving much of the acclaim
and attention now, but that
similar glory should also GO
to the thousands of persons
who made the flight possible
the people who built the Atlas,
the capsule, also the tracking
people and men of the re-
covery fleet.
Col. Glenn's family arrived
last evening-with the grand
parents-after an exciting trip
from Washington in President
Kennedy's personal plane. They
flew first to West Palm Beach
and then to Patrick in another
plane, arriving at about $3.50
pm.
If the Glenn orbital flight
was epochal, SO, in a way, tc
his family and ip-laws was
their ride aboard the presiden-
tial plane.
The President came back
from his quarters to chat and
see that all his guests were
comfortable before the take-of1
from Washington.
This is just grand" the as
tronaut's mother exclaimed
You don't know how much
we appreciate it,"
You'll come back with u.s.
Mr.. Kennedy assured the
whole family. The astronaut's
wife, Anne, met the President
for the first time.
"It's an honor and a thrill,
she told reporters. "It's like q
dream"
She and her sister ane
brother-in-laW all had floWr
by jet before. But for her chill
dren and the grandparents or
both sides the trip was a first
! on a jet. The presidential jet
Evening star., 1962-02-23

climbed to $4,000 feet and sped
along at Sis miles an hour over
the 765-mile route.
Young David proudly dis
played a newly-acquired SOU
venir:: A tie-clasp model of Mr.,
Kennedy's World War II PIT
boat. John O'Leary, a Secret
Service agent, bestowed it on
David. The boy promptly
adorned his green tie.
These have been pretty busy,
exciting days for all the
Glenns, and the smooth flight
lulled Lyn to sleep, with a mag
azine lying open and unread in
the lap of her pale orange
dress.
That was after she and the
other passengers were served
sandwiches and snacks.
Mr.. Kennedy remained in his
cabin in the fore part of the
sleek, silver and orange jet.
| Toward the end of the trip,
White House Press Secretary
Pierre Salinger came out of Mr.,
Kennedy's cabin and took mem
bers of the Glenn family for
ward to see the President for
a minute and on up to the
cockpit. The President came
out then and sat down and
chatted.
Mighty good of you," said
Col. Glenn's father-in-law. 1--WE
appreciate it a lot. We never
h ought anything like this
would happen to U.S."
Mr.. Kennedy still was sitting
there chatting when the plane
/ landed.
Mrs. Glenn looked radiantly
happy as she stepped from a
car on the seaward side of the
Holida Inn, where the Glenn
party spent last night.
Henri Landwirth, the Holi-
day Inns manager, greeted
Mrs. Glenn from the second
floor balcony of the ocean,
front side of the motel. Hello,
Annie, we've saved the bridal
suite for you"

johnson Calls Glenn
Pretty Tall Cotton

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla,
Feb. % (AP).-On the flight
up from Grand Turk Island for
his welcome home today, Vice
President johnson held a folksy
conversation with astronaut
John H. Glenn, jr.
"In my country" said the
tall Texan, "we'd say you're
pretty tall cotton"
The astronaut laughed. The
Vice President then asked,
Were you very tense on take
OFF,"
II imagine I was," said Col.
Glenn.
"You were about as near the
Lords end as a person ever is, "
said the Vice President.
The aStronaHt hesitated here,
Evening star., 1962-02-23

cropping for an answer. Finally
he said, 1--WE prefer to use the
word alert rather than tense"
The Vice President then un-
dertook to advise the astronaut
on his Monday appearance be-
fore a joint session of Congress
There will be no Republi-
can-Democratic dividing line
in Congress when you make
your little talk" Mr.. johnson
said. "They are all together on
this"
Keep it simple, keep it hum
BILE, the shorter the better" Mr.
johnson said. Usually this
honor is reserved only for heads
of state and Presidents, but in
this case the whole country
elected you"

yesterday the seven astronauts
have been invited. and are be-
lieved planning to attend the
hearing, ready to answer ques-
tionS on some of the technical
and operational problems in
volved in the project.
The project has as its goal
establishing a satellite system
which would relay electronic
signals. This would permit
worldwide television, radio and
other communications service.
Evening star., 1962-02-23

Eyebrows were raised in the
crowd, because as far as any
one knew, Virgil I. Grissorn was
still a captain in the United
States Air Force. .
After the ceremony, the
astronaut was asked if some
thing new had been added.
I'm going to ask the Pres
ident if it's official now," Capt.
Grissom grinned. "No, I haven't
been promoted"
Evening star., 1962-02-23

Glenn stepped back to say 9
few words to his parents. His
mother remarked: quite a
trip" Col. Glenn answered:
Some trip. You can't just
quite describe it."
Johnson Pays Tribute
Before entering the cars in
the motorcade headed from
Patrick to here, Mr.. johnson
stepped to a microphone and
hailed Col. Glenn.
"It's a great pleasure" Mr.
johnson said, Ito welcome home
a great pioneer of history"
Mr.. johnson briefly reviewed
Col. Glenn's 4 hour and Sc
minute flight and noted that
afterwards Russian Premier
Khrushchev had congratulated
the United States and suggested
that the two countries pool
their resources for exploration
of space.
Mr.. johnson turned to Col
Glenn and commented:
$50, Colonel, you must feel
you have done something thai
two Presidents have been un-
able to do"
Stresses Work of All
Col. Glenn, stepping to the
microphone, said he was "glao
to be aboard" and very proud
of the way the flight turned
out" He was receiving the
acclaim, he emphasized, as the
representative of all the people
who labored on the Mercury
project.
