Alsofea- tured in releases featuring halibut as the "Fish of the Month' are rock- fish fillets, true cod fillets, and sole fillets. Newspaper food editors in Southern California will be provided with infor- mation regarding the various species, and recipes for fresh and frozen fish and shellfish. Radio and TV food shows will be contacted for their support in the pro- motion of greater fish consumption. Trade associations and related industry repre- sentatives are also being contacted. Whenever possible, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service will coordinate its ac- tivities with the Southern California Fisheries Association, lending Government pro- motional support to the promotion of fish where it coincides with Southern California marketing conditions. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ SARDINE STOCKS ESTIMATED LIGHT: There are fewer adult sardines off the Pacific Coast of North Annerica today than were caught by commercial fishermen in the 1936/37 season, the Marine Research Commit- tee has estimated, Cali- fornia Department
