ed “Shrimp, Please” was first
shown. The film was introduced

trawl,” he stated. Though they
have less meat per length, than do
other species, one striking charac
teristic of the shrimp found here,
is that they do not have a sand

some shrimp eaters.

stated they were “not gentle” on
the shrimp, often crushing them.
The drawback here to the develop
ment of a shrimp industry, he said,
is the high cost of operation and
labor.
Among the guests was Sayed

briefly. Others present were Bill
Wood, Lou Veerman, Nariman
