GOOD FISHING—Albacore by the thousands are being brought in by anglers every day. This 281 pound beauty won the jackpot for Mike Williams, 14, fishing from the Sea House out of Davy's Locker in Newport Beach this last week.

Kuchel of California and Anaheim declared the United States must not change its policy toward Communist China and indicated Congress will seek to prevent President Kennedy from shifting the American position after Congress adjourns for the fall. In a filmed television program, Kuchel repeated the stand he has taken consistently over several years but admitted there is uneasiness over reports this Country's opposition toward admission of the Communist Reds into the United Nations may be modified. Discussing the dual question of diplomatic recognition of, and U. N. membership for, the Red Chinese, the California Senator told his California television audiences: "My answer is an unequivocal NO to both questions. I believe Bob Geier, Orange public relations agency owner, has resigned today as consultant to the Youth Films Foundation, Inc., a group whose incorporation papers indicate they propose to build audiences for good youth films and thereby encourage the production of such desirable pictures for theatres and television. In resigning, Geier, released the following statement: "I believed, and still do believe that the principles and goals of the Youth Films Founda Davey's Locher deep sea fishing YEAR AROUND 632 31st St. Newport Beach HALF DAY, ALL DAY and CHARTER BOATS DAY OR NIGHT OR 3-1434 dation are excellent and worthy of universal support. I have worked closely with a majority of the members of the board of directors. "While I have differing philosophical opinions, I feel sincerely that these members with whom I have worked are truly interested in the attainment of the objectives of the corporation and have nothing but patriotic motives. "I attempted to get them to spend sufficient time in study to effect an adequate system of checks and balances to insure the continual progress toward their announced goal, and while they have agreed to do so, they are taking no steps at this time toward that end. Therefore, until and unless the organizational structure incorporates such safeguards, I cannot be actively associated with it." With the cost of living so high today, a great many people find they can't afford to work for what they're worth. Discussing the dual question of diplomatic recognition of, and U. N. membership for, the Red Chinese, the California Senator told his California television audiences: "My answer is an unequivocal NO to both questions. I believe, also, that that is the answer of the American people and I believe it is the policy which best serves the National interest." Kuchel referred to "disturbing and disquieting rumors" that after Congress quits for the year the Kennedy Administration "will abandon America's position and substitute something else." He noted that attempts to block any change have been made by introduction of a resolution now in the Foreign Relations Committee "re-emphasizing and repeating our Country's united stand against Red China." Unless the resolution restating opposition to U. N. admission of the Communist Chinese is reported for action soon, Kuchel predicted an attempt will be made to write into the Mutual Aid legislation a declaracation of Senate disapproval for any modification in the American policy. He commented that in all probability members of both the House and the Senate will have a chance "to stand up and be counted" on the issue and recalled that Communist China already has been "convicted by the United Nations itself as an aggressor against Korea."
