uled for Saturday at 3 p.m. has

Whether they win or lose, the
boys seem to be having a ball of a
time. We hope that the parents and
others involved in the Little
League effort will try to keep in
mind that while winning is the ob
vious immediate object of the game
itself, the long range object of the
Little League is to provide con
structive recreation for the boys
and thereby mold better men of
them in the future. Let’s all try to
have as much fun and enjoyment
as the boys seem to.

Japanese Crab —
(continued from page 1)
“Although the name of the
mothership has not been deter
mined by the Japanese fishing com
panies concerned, a test fishery
for king crab in the southern part
of the Gulf of Alaska is likely to
be conducted jointly by a combina
tion of three fishing companies
this summer.
“The Japan Fisheries Agency has
given a preliminary notice regard
ing a formal license to those com
panies and they have begun prepa
rations for a fleet to sail on June
10. The license is said to be for 400
metric tons of frozen crab.
“Some observers doubt the suc
cess of this venture but other ob
servers report the success of one
of the joint firms’ experiments
with crab pots in the Hokkaido
and Hokuriku districts.
“The companies concerned with
the venture believe that the quota
of 400 tons is too small to meet
payment of the operating costs—
a 500-ton quota is considered more
realistic as a minimum.” (Japanese
newspaper, April 19, 1963.)

Letter to the Editor
“LOVE THY NEIGHBOR"
Of all the people who have been
so kind to us because we Ipst our
home by fire, I found a true friend
in a 10 year-old Christian girl, Deb
bie Parke, who took her $33.15
which she had saved for a record
player and came over with her
mother and gave it to me.
I never in all my life saw such
unselfishness. It makes one believe
it is “better to give than receive”
and we thank God for our many
friends and especially wish to
thank every one for being so kind
and helpful.
