HID SEA Tll«
IN THE DROWNING OF
KETCHIKAN TROLLER
Another sea tragedy is told in
a statement made to Judge W. C.
Arnold, United States commission
er, by Lars Martinsen, of the
troller Virginus, about the loss of
his partner and co-owner of the
boat, Fred Johansen, reports the
Ketchikan Chronicle.
The statement says the accident
took place at Coco Harbor, near
View Cove, Dali Island, April 7,
at 11 a. m. The statement reads:
Martinsen and deceased were
trolling and deceased, who was
at the wheel of the Virginus, at
tempted to pass inside a certain
small island in shallow water—
missed course and struck a rock
with the trolling hatch open. The
boat listed sharply, righted itself
| impact and list caused the skiff
lying on the deck to float away.
When the ship righted itself about
a foot of water was discovered in
the forecastle. The hatch cover
was removed and water bubbled
up from below. Bbth men thought
the boat had lost a plank. The
skiff was then about 20 feet away.
Johansen decided to swim for the
skiff as Martinsen could not
swim.
Johansen removed his clothes
stating that he did not need a
line and swam to the skiff which
was drifting before the wind.
He apparently got the cramps but
remained with the skiff for about
15 minutes when he capsized it
trying to get in. He then went
out of sight. In the meantime
Martinsen had fastened a light
line to .a cask and threw it over
board hoping it would drift to
Johansen so he could be pulled
in.
After Johansen disappeared
Martinsen floated the boat and
found that the water had entered
through the trolling hatch. He
started the engine and cruised in
the vicinity two hours but saw
nothing of the body. He then
came to Ketchikan.

VOLCIDIG DUST TELL
ON VESSELS FAR OUT
ON THE PACIFIC
SAN FRANCISCO, May 2. </P)—
Dust that fell on the decks of the
Matson liner Maui and the freight
er Manukai 300 miles off shore
last Thursday, practically halting
both vessels because of its im
penetrability, is from some vol
cano in eruption.
This was the opinion of Univer
sity of California authorities who
examined samples of the dust
turned over to them by officials
of the Matson Navigation Com
pany.
Interest in the phenomena is
accentuated by the fact that no
volcano has been reported in erup
tion recently. The ash is believed
to be from some volcano whose
activity is not yet known to the
world.
Assistant U. S. District Attor
ney Reed returned Friday to his

Continually working for the ad
vancement of domestic electric re
frigeration, engineers of Frigidaire
Corporation have made it possible
for this General Motors subsidiary
this year to present a household
refrigerator with many refinements
and improvements, according to an
announcement by the local repre
sentative. Economy, efficiency and
beauty have been the guiding stars
of these engineers and as a result
the Frigidaire of today operates at
much lower cost, freezes more ice
| cubes faster, has an interior and
exterior finish of durable white
porcelain-on-steel and provides
more shelf space than before.
