MINORCA I f3 ' ? iu f9 ciKua-Kf r960 BALERIC IS. aima, ' 7Ki ii( ca The Capital of the Balearic Group, Palma, is on the southern coast of the Island of Majorca (also spelled Mallorca), the largest island. The city stands at the head of Palma Bay between Cabo Figuera and Cabo Blanco. About one mile from Santa Catalina, the city ' s western suburb, stands Beliver Castle, the ancient residence of the kings of Majorca. The island is of no great economical im- portance to Spain, but its tourist trade is the basis for its own economy. The earliest known inhabitants of the island were Iberians, but subsequently there came successive in- vasions of Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians, and Romans. The port came into importance under the Moors, but it grew after being incorporated into Aragon and Catalonia. The island was occupied by the British during the greater part of the 18th Century, and it still bears marks of this prosperous period. The ramparts, over 250 years in construction, were not completed until 1836. Near these ramparts stands an ancient and beautiful cathedral. The USS FISKE gave us our annual administrative inspection in Palma for which the ship received an overall excellent with the engineers getting an outstanding. To celebrate our well-deserved marks and relax after much hard work, a roaring ship ' s party of two evenings was arranged by the Recretation Committee.
