Handle With Care; Soft
Shell Crabs Hard At Work
Pulling a leg is no joking
m atter when it com es to dealing
with a D ungeness crab. This
popular sport and com m ercial
crab m oves into shallow w ater
each year to recover from the
process of shedding its old shell.
During this tim e the crabs have
a very soft shell and are vul­
nerable to m ishandling
and
rough raking by crabbers
Soft-shelled crab s are also
rather poor in m eat quality. The
m eat is gelatinous, w atery and
does not fill the new shell. A
hard-shelled crab w ill yield 25-30
percent m eat w hile a soft-shelled
crab will yield only 10-15 p er­
cent. It is therefore naturally
d esirable to w aylay the hard
crab s w hile leavin g the soft
crabs to m ature for greater
m eat quantity and quality.
The F ish C om m ission of O re­
gon requires no licen se to take
D ungeness crab for personal
use. A little ca re is required,
how ever, so that all soft, under­
sized, or fem a le crabs are
returned to the w ater without
injury T w elve m ale crabs m ay
be taken per day per person with
no m ore than 24 taken in 7
con secu tive d ays. The crabs
m ust be at least 5I * 34 inches
across and w idest part of the
back, ex clu siv e of spines. Soft
and hard-shelled crabs are g en ­
erally found in the sam e a reas so
a good rule of thumb for this
tim e of the season is to handle
the crabs gently and rake slow ly
in order to m inim ize injuries To
d eterm ine shell texture, pick the
crab up gingerly from center
rear to avoid
its
powerful
pincers Sim ply pinch the large
section of a rear leg A hard
crab ’s leg is easily flattened. For
a D ungeness crab a good leg
pulling is indeed no joking
m atter The F ish C om m ission of
Oregon rem inds you to pinch
that leg but go easy on our
friends who have it soft!
N early three trillion barrels of
oil lie beneath the sea s, say
geologists, who point out that
this am ounts to nearly three
tim es as m uch a s has been d is­
covered throughout the world.

Crown Z ellerbach has report
ed that sa les and earnings in the
second quarter and first six
m onths of 1974 set new records
Second quarter sa les of $430,-
151,000 w ere 20 percent ahead of
the com parable 1973 period,
w hile net incom e of 332,622,000
represented m ore than a 10 p er­
cen t im provem ent. Earnings per
share w ere 31 32, com pared with
31 20, restated to reflect a c ­
quisitions
For the six m onths, sa les were
3818,299,000, 17 percent ahead of
the prior year. N et incom e w as
359,877.000. or 32 43 a sh are, a 10
percent im provem ent over last
y e a r ’s 354,549,000, or 32.21.
P resident C.R Dahl said that
the earnings
im provem ents
w ere achieved despite a soften ­
ing in w orldwide dem and for
wood products, which ad versely
affected earnings contributions
from both d om estic and in ­
ternational operations. He noted
that the com pany's earnings
have im proved on a quarter-to-
quarter com parision b asis for
nine con secu tive quarters but
added that costs have been in­
creasin g at a greater rate than
price in creases.
Mr. Dahl said the outlook is for
continuing strong m arket d e­
m and in the com p an y’s paper,
packaging and w holesale d is­
tribution b u sin esses. “T im ber
and wood products rem ain at a
reasonably good level, although
below the record prices reached
in the first half of last y e a r ,” he
added.
Mr. Dahl said the com pany
ex p ects that low er earnings con ­
tributions from tim ber and wood
products w ill continue to be
m ore than offset by im prove­
m ents in other m ajor a reas of
the business. On that basis, 1974
resu lts should ex ceed the record
set last year.
