Judge Thomas M. Reed ruled in
the Ketchikan case of J. L. Smiley
Company against William Irvine and
!others, that no prior right is ac
quired to a salmon trap location by
previous year’s operations. The
court granted a preliminary injunc
tion against the plaintiff in the case,
J. L. Smiley Company, which fished
the location last year. Irvine and
'others acquired possession of che
location first this year.
Reporting that the gdS/)oat Olga
had broken her stay lines on the
reef on which she ran a week ago
last Wednesday and was further
damaged by turning over on her side,
j Sandy Woodman returned to Juneau
)after completing a survey for the
j ship’s underwriters. Woodman said
! that the boat had been badly damag
ed by the crash on the reef oil Hump
j Island near Point Retreat and when
she fell on her side after the lines
parted she was wrecked beyond sal
vage. Capt. Oscar Oberg of the
Olga was authorized by the under
writers to salvage the engine and
any other part of the ship that might
be saved, but the remainder of the
boat will be abandoned. The salvag
ing crew went out under the com
jmand of €apt. Oberg. The Olga was
partly covered by insurance.

For the second time in the history
of the trap, Point Colpoys trap of the
Petersburg- Packing Co., was an un_
welcome host last week to a whale.
The first visit of a whale to this
trap occured a number of years ago
and wa3 made by a baby whale.
The big mammal in the trap this
week was much larger and measured
about 35 feet in length. The watch
man in charge of the trap used up
several boxes of ammunition attempt
ing to kill the unwelcome visitor
| with no effect, and Oscar Nicholson
[left to supervise ridding the trap ol
the whale. It is not an uncommon
1 oecurance for whales to be caught
j in fish traps, but trap owners are
I thankful that it does not happen ver\
often. Only a few minutes would be
'required for an infuriated whale tc
(completely wreck a fish trap that
| cost anywhere from five to fifteen oi
; twenty thousands of dollars. Onl)
(slight damage was reported to tin
Point Colpoys trap by the whale
emeshed there.
