Marilyn and Joe Date
Doesn’t Mean Anything—
‘We’re Just Good Friends’
NEW YORK, (jf)—Marilyn and
Joe had another date last night.
But it doesn’t necessarily mean
that Miss Monroe is about to be
come Mrs. DiMaggio again.
“We’re just good friends,” Di
Maggio told reporters. “We do not
plan to remarry. That’s all I care
to say.”
He took Miss Monroe to a pre
view of her new film', “The Seven
Year Itch” at a Times Square
Theater and then gave a party in
honor of her 27th birthday at a
midtown restaurant.
The couple was divorced last
Oct. 27 after a 10-month marriage.

Japanese Government
To Hold Down Import
Of Tuna to North America
TOKYO, —A spokesman said
today the government is forming
a plan to hold down on Japa
nese exports of frozen tuna to
the United States and Canada.
Tuna industries in -both nations
had complained that a steady in
crease in Japanese frozen tuna
exports were hurting home in
dustries.
A government spokesman said
Japan’s yearly export of frozen
tuna to North America has been
about 40,000 tons. Much of the
total is shipped in June anl July.
The government plan probably
will restrict shipments in June
and July this year to 15,000 tons
—the same as 1954.
The price will be pegged at
$270 a ton. This would make the
delivered price about $340 a ton
in North America.
The spokesman said the gov
ernment will watch sharply to see
that the price is observed and no
rebates or under-the-table deals
are arranged. Many North Am
erican complaints have been
based on reports of such price
cutting deals.

Nome Hunters
Bag Oogruk, Seal,
Walrus in Bering
By LOUIS R. HUBER
Several oomiaks operating out
of Nome have returned in the past
few days with loads of walrus,
oogruk and seal meat obtained in
the Bering Sea ice fields which
are now moving slowly north
ward and westward.
Sam Mogg’s 35-foot oomiak
< walrus-skin-hulled boat) returned
at 1 a.m. Thursday with almost
two tons of walrus meat, account
ing for two walrus taken about
110 miles southeast of Nome.
Another skin boat in which Da
vid and Floyd Walluk and three
other Eskimos were crew re
turned about the same time, from
the same general area, with one
walrus and a quantity of oogruk
(large bearded seal) meat.
Crew on Sam Mogg’s boat were
Mogg, captain; Joe Amarok, Tom
my Mogg and Don Davis. They
were accompanied by two
“blonde Eskimos,” Alex McGin
nis of Lomen’s and Louis R. Hu
ber, writer and photographer.
An interesting feature of Mogg’s
crew was the difference in ages
of two crew members. Joe Amar
ok, 76, was one of the most active
hunters in the party; while Tom
my Mogg, 9, also was a hunter
and is credited with killing a wal
rus at the age of four.
All hands reported the ice fields
almost a fairyland of beauty in
the recent good weather, with
Bering Sea as smooth as a table
top the last couple of days.
