HOMER NEWS
Mr. and Mrs. Bechel from An
chorage are down looking over
the country expecting to settle
here; they are contemplating rais
ing sheep.
* * * *
Andrew Aaslund and Cal Mc
Kay left last week for Seldovia.
Mr. Aaslund is going to Seward
for medical treatment and Mr.
McKay is going to the Pioneer
Home at Sitka.
* * * .*
The postmaster has received in
structions that the mail from
Homer to Ninilchik from Decem
ber 15 until March 31, each year
for four years, making four trips
with not more than 300 pounds
of mail a single trip, will be car
ried by the Alaska Airways, Inc.
This will help some as we may
in this way get a landing field
which is very much needed, as
Homer is more or less isolated in
the winter months.

Star Nielson has his boat, the
Automatic, nearly completed and
it is a fine boat. It is 36 feet
long. He is going to fish in the
Inlet.
Lee Hancock was a recent vis
itor to Homer, having come for
the Alaska Guides as packer. He
took the nine head of horses
which Mr. Miller wintered for the
company to Kusilof for the sum
mer.
* $ * *
Mrs. Ero Walli and children
have returned to their home in
Starisky for the summer, where
Mr. Walli has a fish trap and
fox farm. They expect to return
in the fall and reside in their new
home, the former Wells place.
* * * *
Jack Harrington made a trip to
Starisky for a load of fish He
took two horses with him and
brought back enough for the
J neighbors. King salmon tastes
i pretty good this tme of the year.
Distinctly reassuring, so far as
the present and the immediate
future is concerned at any rate,
a very detailed report on the Jap
anese halibut fishery has been
compiled by James A. Langley of
the Canadian legation at Tokyo,
according to the Pacific Fisher
man. It largely sets at naught
fears of Canadian and American
halibut fishermen who, aroused
by shipments running up to 150
tons of frozen halibut from Japan
to the United States, have felt
that the future of the North
American industry might be jeop
ardized by larger importations of
Oriental fish.
In the first place, the Japanese
catch is shown to be quite small.
Secondly, it has been declining
quite rapidly. This decline has
been accompanied by reduction in
the number of boats engaged in
the fishery. Perhaps most sur
prising of all, the average price
paid for the fish has also been
going down in spite of the re
duced volume of the catch.
DEFENDS TITLE
1 NEW YORK. May 23. OP) —
Christopher Battalino, f e a ther
weight champion, sucessfuily de
fended his title Friday night in p
slow 15-round bout with Fidel La

Engineer Story of the Arcade
Building is back on the job after
a couple of days treatment for a
bad cold in the Seward General

evening which was quickly sup
pressed by the Volunteer Fire
Department.
