. California fish and game. Fisheries -- California; Game and game-birds -- California; Fishes -- California; Animal Population Groups; Pêches; Gibier; Poissons. 76 DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND GAME STATISTICAL UNIT Installations and procedures of the Marine Fisheries statistical unit \\ere modified during the biennium to complete more efficiently the task of gathering, compi- lation and publication of California fishery statistics. Among the modifications have been remodeling the building at Terminal Island, departmentalizing the or- ganization, basic reports revised to increase their util- it^•, license and application forms redesigned, trawl sta- tistics for war >ears compiled and made available, ma- rine sports catch records retabulated, and the striped bass catch logs have been tabulated. The staff issued five publications during the bien- nium. Of these, two are statistical circulars and three are catch bulletins. Statistical Circulars Nos. 27 and 28 present the annual statistics of fresh and canned fishery products for the years 1952 and 1953 respectively. Cir- cular 28 contains revised tables of sardine landings and production and a table showing the annual case pack of anchovy. These tables reflect the decline in impor- tance of the sardine and the steadily increasing an- chovy fishery which has risen from twenty-second position among the more important commercial species in 1945 to third position in 1953. Fish Bulletins Nos. 86, 89 and 95 present the complete commercial fish catch for the years 1950, 1951 and 1952 respectively. In addition, Bulletin No. 86 contains a historical record and a complete description of current methods used in collecting and compiling fisheries statistics.
