~ Abalone hunt provides excitement
- for determined fovers of seafood

By GLADYS BALDWIN

' Rubber boots, old clothes, screwdriver, bucket and the ability to stand up
un ‘seaweed and rocks that are a combination of the qualities of glare ice and
grease, are prerequisites for hunting abalone.

 

Marine Bay on Digby Island,
where when ‘we arrived, several
ardent fishermen already had
their lines out trying to hook a
salmon large enough to bring
them the weeky prize in the Sal-
mon Derby, co-sponsored by the
yacht club and the Prince Rupert
Rod and Gun club.

Our early start was to allow

a turn around the herring pond,
with lines overboard, just on the
off chance. Apparently the fish
had already had their breakfast,
because we didn’t get a nibble.
Unless of course two-time winner
James Greer had it hooked. He

Abdlone or sea-ears are found.
on sea’ surged rocks on a zero
tide. We were.on the rocks just
before low slack. Mr. and Mrs.
Ballinger and Wally started look-
ing for abalone immediately. I
was much slower.

In a world that was gray and
dark green with an occasional
spit of rain the galaxy of colors
along the rocks becoming uncov-
ered was breathtaking. Purple,:
deep red, pale pink, orange and
all the intermediate colors. Sea
urchins as large as mellons, cov-
ered with spikes, rock oysters
with their red mouths gaping.
Deep blue purple starfish flank-
ed by red and orange ones.

The pink rocks described by
abalone hunters were real with
the pink growth extending over
clinging starfish.

The Jong green fronds of the
seaweed are a protective cover-
ing for the abalone. Pushing the
weed aside and trying to stand
up at the same time is some-
what like tight rope walking. It
wasn’t long before Mrs. Ballinger
and I found we were down nearly
as much as we were up with the
inevitable consequence, wet
trousers. Sometimes the abalone
fall off in the hand, other times
the screw driver is needed to pry
them off the rock.

We began our return trip on

Chatham Sound looking rough
and ragged. The skipper decided

A short walk along the beach
trail brought us to the home of
Edward Hudson, old time resi-
ldent of Prince Rupert, who
spends part of his time in Prince
Rupert and part at Hunt’s Inlet.
He said he first came to Rupert
in 1907,

Shortly after 3 p.m. we were
out in Chatham Sound again in
what was térmed a “very dirty
slop”. Our speed was greatly
reduced as we “jogged” it across.
Wally kept fairly close in his
smal! boat which took the rough
wacer like a bird. Well out into
the Sound a large American fish-
packer, the’ St. Anthony from
Washington _ turned .,off her
course to come alongside to sce
if our two, small boats needed
help, We didn’t, but thanks any-
way the St. Anthony.

Once in the lee of Kinahan Ts-
land we finished our trip in
record time and pulled into the
yacht club in the first brilliant
sunshine of the day.

. ‘ROCK ’N' ROLL
Many of the young artists are reaping rewards from making
.top hits by performing the dual role of composer and singer.
Conway Twitty, a young 23-year-old artist, wrote “It’s Only
Make Believe”:and recorded it for MGM a year ago and from
the record salés alone he expects to clear $400,000. On a new
- LP “Conway Twitty Sings,” more than half of the tunes have
been co-authored by Twitty. His style is much li: ‘Elvis
‘Presley. The record: “Conway Twitty Sings,” MGM © 3744. |
POPULAR
At one time you could rely on a recording artist making
all their records for one company all of their performing
days. Not so today. The artists are continually hopping from
one label to the other and confusing record dealers. Rose-~
mary Clooney up to some months ago was always associated
with the Columbia Company, She has made two recordings
lately for two different labels. She recorded “Fancy Meeting
You Here” with Bing Crosby for RCA Victor and her. latest
venture is a new disc with the Buddy Cole trio for Coral.
The latter LP is called “Swing Around Rosie,” (Coral 57266)
and she is at her best with 12 tunes. ,
Guy Lombardo has come up with a new long play to add
to his already bulging catalogue. The latest is “Lombardo Goes
Latin)” (Capitol T 1191), a collection of tunes from north and

JAZZ
Famous -jazz pianist Erroll Garner presents another ad-
dition of his repertoire with “Erroll Garner Encores in Hi-Fi”
-on Columbia CL 1141; Listening to Garner one can hardly
believe that he doesn’t read a note of music and the Columbia

make a perfect master record the first take. Arrangements
I particularly enjoyed were “Moonglow,” ‘“Robbin’s Nest”
and “Groovy-Day.” -
RE-ISSUES

Of particular interest to lovers of early “swing” will
be this recent release on London by the Quintet of the Hot
Club of France. The’ recordings, “Swing from Paris,” London
LL 1344, are a little disappointing sound-wise, but to hear
that great guitarist Django Reinhardt and "jazz violinist
Stephane Grapelly swinging out is a treat. This type of jazz
is quite unique as it doesn’t conform to any particular style
except possibly’ French. swing of the 30's. Some famous old
numbers by this group included on the LP are “Sweet Georgia

Brown,” “Improvisation” and “Djangolgy.”

CLASSICAL

The Mozart, Quintet in E- Flat Major and the Lennox
Berkeley, Trio for Violin, Horn and Piano should be of con-
siderable interest to admirers of the late Dennis Brain, the
great English French horn virtuoso. Mr. Brain was killed a few
years ago when his sports car overturned when he was re-
turning from the Edinburgh Festival. Mr. Brain, in his late
20s, was considered the world’s greatest French horn player.
The two works are a fine example of Dennis Brain’s great
musicianship. The record: “Mozart Quintet and Berkeley Trio,”
Capitol G 7175.
