On “DR. Zhivago”
Five years ago the Book-of-the
Month Club first began to offer an
alternate book which their mem
bers might choose in preference
to the regular selection for that
month. The alternate selection for
November 1958, announced early
the previous month, was Doctor
Zhivago, the widely acclaimed

Russian novel by Boris Pasternak.
Member acceptance of this al
ternate was strong but not excep
tional until the world learned that
Mr. Pasternak had won the 1958
Nobel Prize for Literature. Im
mediately there was a sharp in
crease in orders, and when the
news broke that Mr. Pasternak
had refused to accept the Prize
the sale reached landslide volume.
To date, more copies of Doctor
Zhivago have been ordered by
Club members than any other
single alternate selection in the
same period of time. They are now
around 150,000 and are likely to
go to a quarter million, according
to one of the officials of the Club.
This sale is to Club members only;
in addition, the publishers* Pan
theon Books, Ine., report a sale of
over 400,000.

On Future Fishing
Wayne Axelson, new superin

described the fisheries industry
as being at a crossroads, but with
the future still full of possibilities.
He predicted a trend to localiza
tion of the fishing and said “the
backbone of the economy in this
area will be fishing for sometime
to come.”
