From the April issue of Fisher
men’s News: The “Dark Island,” a
clean and uncluttered 39-foot com

Note of caution to fishermen: in
case you ever decide to help your
wife with household chores by
cleaning out the bird cage ... re
member not to try to clean it with
a vacuum cleaner while the bird is
still in it. We hear about one fel
low who’s sorta in the doghouse
cause he tried this and the bird
somehow got caught in the suction
and was pulled into the hose. He
managed to blow the bird out of
the hose where it was stuck . . .
but . . . “It didn’t live very long.”

The past coupla weeks there was
some concern about a bill intro
duced in the California legislature
which would have prohibited the
sale of frozen Alaska crabs in the
shell in that state. Prompt condem
nation by Governor Egan helped
kill the measure, at least for the

haps require the prohibition by
Alaska of the sale of California
oranges in Alaska huh!
