CORDOVA (AP) For the second time this year, Alaska has invited foreign seafood processors to help with the harvest of pink salmon.

Citing a shortage of domestic processing capacity, the governor's office Tuesday issued an order permitting several foreign vessels to enter Prince William Sound and buy fish. Clem Tillion, director of the state office of Fisheries and External Affairs, said the order would remain in effect unless it was the domestic processors could handle the run. Last month, the state allowed a Japanese processor into Bris- tol Bay to buy pink salmon. But the processor was ordered out a few days later when fisheries biologists determined that the run wasn't going to be as large as anticipated. Tillion said three Cordova- area processors had so much salmon on hand Tuesday that they refused to buy any more fish.

Four Korean vessels were on hand to take advantage of the order and one from Taiwan was on its way, Tillion said. The foreeign processors will pay 23 cents a pound, the price finally agreed to last Friday after a dispute last several Old Eskimo Home Found Near Barrow Two Shows: 7:10 9:10 nightly Plan a Birthday Party or a fun afternoon Friday-Saturday-Sunday Bambi: 2:30 4:30 SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE With four sizes of Cubics you can create unlimited designs, so ---let your imagination run wild! to assemble sturdy and functional casual good looks blend well with a variety of decors Available Hours: Tues-Wed-Sat: Noon to 6pm; Thurs-Fri 6pm-9pm Closed Sundays. 747-8558 901 Halibut Pt.

VISA" SALE ITEMS LIMITED WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIMIT 815 HPR 747-6292 Box 1609 BARROW (AP) Archaeologists have uncovered the preserved remains, of an Eskimo home and its inhabitants which are believed to be as least 200 years old. Signs of the frozen remains were discovered along a coastal bluff near Barrow last month by an amateur relic collector who notified the North Slope Borough. Working under the supervision of village elders, the archaeologists found five well- preserved bodies, hunting implements, tools, clothes and jewelry protected through the years by permafrost. Ray Newell, assistant director of the project, said full details of the discovery will be outlined at a press conference in about three weeks, after autopsies and further studies are completed. Under an agreement with the elders, the bodies were excavated and sent to the University of Alaska-Fairbanks for study.

They are to be returned to Barrow by Sept. 15, at which time the village will conduct "a Christian burial." Alise Patkotat, director of the borough's health services, said the elders de- CANDIDATE'S CORNER Bill Sheffield After visiting many towns and villages and talking to many fishermen, Bill Sheffield, gubernatorial candidate, thinks the industry is suffering from several setbacks. To counter this, Sheffield said he would commit himself to: --Developing an infrastructure to support private enterprise related to development of low cost transportation links between the product and the market. --Support of existing loan programs. --Encouraging in state processing.

--More responsibility given to the aquaculture programs. --Financial support of the bottomfish industry. --Expansion of educational facilities. --More fisheries research with one agency to gather, coordinate and disseminate all of its data in understandable form. --Appointments of qualified persons to the Board of Fisheries.

--A direct liaison between the industry and the governor's office. --A comprehensive, well conceived fishing plan with specific priorities and goals. Ground Zero To Show Film "Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb," will be shown by Sitka's Ground Zero organization Friday. The public is invited to attend.

The Academy award winning movie will be shown at 7 p.m. at Allen Auditorium, on Sheldon Jackson College. Admission is $1 and donations will be accepted for Ground Zero, a group dedicated to nuclear arms education. The film stars Peter Sellers in three roles, George C. Scott and Slim Pickens.

Refreshments will be served. cided the information could serve to enhance understanding sooner of Eskimo culture. "The feeling of the elders was that would have a lot to tell us that could verify our oral history," she said. "The archaeologists say the home was most likely crushed by a massive piece of ice that was forced up the bluff from the Arctic Ocean, possibly during a storm," said North Slope Mayor Eugene Brower. If the early estimates are accurate, the artifacts would predate North Slope Eskimo contact with white civilization.

Archaeologists refer to the period as "late prehistoric." The excavations were handled by the Utkiakvik Archaeological Project of the State University of New York-Binghampton. The group already was in Barrow conducting field studies of lands affected by the borough's underground utility corridor work. weeks. The Pacific Seafood Processors Association, which threatened legal action when the foreign processors were allowed in Bristol Bay, said it wouldn't oppose them this time. "We don't contemplate going to court because the state has agreed to review the order on a 24-hour basis," said Rick Lauber, Alaska manager of the association.

Lauber said he believed the current salmon glut in the sound is an "artificially created surplus" caused by the lengthy price dispute that left more than 200 boats idle. Fishermen are reported hauling in about 1 million pinks a day, but Lauber said he thinks the domestic processors soon will be in a position to handle them. Rodger Painter, executive director of the United Fishermen of Alaska, said his group is pleased with the state's action, and only wishes it had come Purse Seine Fishery Slated Alaska Department of Fish and Game has announced a purse seine fishery opening which will begin Thursday.

Thursday. Districts 10, ll, 12, ISA and 13C will be open from 6 a.m. Thursday through 9 p.m. Friday. Fishermen are reminded to check with ADFG for complete details on area openings.

Recorded announcements may be heard by calling 747-5022. According to ADFG, good pink salmon runs are con- tinguing to develop in the thern districts. nor- ANCHORAGE (AP) State officials on Tuesday said they will not accept new set net 'site lease applications until they can figiire a solution to problems being caused by shifting shorelines along some state beaches. The Division of Forest, Land and Water Management said the shifting shorelines are making it difficult to locate some of the lease sites. While new applications will not be accepted, current leaseholders or applicants who have received surveying instructions for their leases will not be affected, the division said.

Alaska's Shore Fishery Lease Program has been in operation since 1964, and gives leaseholders exclusive right to commercially fish at the leased sites. Strip Joint Closed ANCHORAGE (AP) The Alcoholic Beverage Control Board has shut down an Anchorage strip joint for 30 days because of an improper leasing arrangement. The board says the owner, Kathleen Lovette, leased the bar to Jan Marie for $7,500 a month in March of 1981. The lease ran to May 10 of this year, the board says. Under state law it is illegal for anyone but the recorded owner of a liquor license to have direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the license.
