to an estimated 140 members and
guests of the Matanuska Valley
Sportsmen last Saturday eve

the crab cocktail appetizer to
the wild fruit sauces that were
served over Matanuska Valley
ice cream delighted diners who

fowls have be~n noticeably thin

The State of Washington Went
Through The Fish Tray, Fight In 1934
“The biggest catch of Sockeye Salmon in
Puget Sound since 1917 occurred in 1946, and
the biggest catch of Pinks in Puget Sound
since 1917 occurred in 1947.
“We credit this to the elimination of Fish
Traps and the nefarious politics that control
them.
“The citizens of Alaska are to be congratu
lated on their move to abolish Fish Traps in
the Territory.”
