Lady Angler Boats
125 Pound Halibut
With Light Tackle
SEATTLE, (j^P)—A nurse at the
Auburn Hospital is telling a 125
pound fish story—about the one
that didn’t get away.
Mrs. Dorothy Stitham caught
the huge fish, a halibut, outside
Neah Bay, at the tip of the
Olympic Peninsula, Saturday. It j
is believed to be the biggest hali- '
but ever boated by a woman with
sports tackle in Washington
waters.
She hooked it at 8 a.m. while
fishing with her husband, Jerry,
and it was a full hour before she
got it to the surface. Its tail was
still flipping when the Stithams
reached the boat house in late
afternoon.
Mrs. Stitham was using 15
pound test line and 12-pound test
leaders.
Rumor has it that
Alcatraz is to renamed
Treasure Island.
In honor of the Bureau
of Internal Revenue,
no doubt.

Some Steel Companies
Sign With Steel Union
PITTSBURGH, (/P) — A big
steel company which granted 25
cent hourly pay boosts to its non
striking employes asked the gov
ernment Tuesday for a price in
crease while the striking CIO
steelworkers tried to sign up
more small firms to new con
tracts.
Weirton Steel Co., a subsidiary
of National Steel Corp., asked
government permission to raise
its price $5.50 a ton to help cover
increased labor costs. There was
no immediate reaction from Price
Control officials in Washington.
The United Steel Workers has
signed more than 30 smaller steel
firms to new contracts based on
the recommendations of the Wage
Stabilization Board. But none of
the six largest steel producers
have come to terms with the
union.
Latest to sign is Harrisburg (Pa)
Steel Corp., which employs 1,250
workers. The firm signed a pact
calling for a wage increase of ap
proximately 15 cents an hour,
modified union shop, six paid
holidays and three weeks vaca
tion annually for 15 years service.

Limit On Bars To Two
For Every 1,500 Residents
ANCHORAGE, (fP) — The city
council in this city of many brass
rails has voted to limit the num
ber of bars to* two for every 1,500

The proposal was among sev
eral approved by the council to
tighten the city’s liquor code.
The council voted to require
adequate lighting in liquor-by-the
drink establishments but discard
ed a proposul that women should
be required to* sit at tables or
booths instead of at the bars.
