By day's end, the trawler's tanks were crawling with 6,624 lbs. of Alaskan king crab, which were promptly delivered to a Wakefield Seafoods, Inc., processing plant. Such pickings, by Kathy C. and a fleet of 40 other crabbers, have made Wakefield's founder, Lowell Wakefield, the leader of the fastest-growing segment of the U.S. fishing industry...

Ferber defines his job as mainly "just reading bills and advising the university on what effect they will have." Rowan Wakefield, who represents the State University of New York and its 58 branches, also advises campus officials back home on Washington trends, and speaks of "the sheer frustration of trying to keep informed on the huge federal programs in education...
