Static had obliterated the rest of the mes- sage. “Sparks” said he could not turn around to face the Captain. He just sat there and waited. It was several long minutes before the message came through clearly that the gun shot had resulted only in a foot wound. Today in Juneau, while the Bar- anof was in port, Capt. Ramauser visited in St. Ann's Hospital with his son, where the young man was |brought by Pilot Alex Holden last week after the accident. Capt.
