The oil burner in the stove was ripped out and with wood torn from the shathered decks, a fire was started in the stove. Food was |oil soaked and water soaked and little remained that was palatable. !Salt water had flooded the drinking | water tanks. | Desperately thirsty, the men dug lice from the halibut packed in the hold, melted it and eased their parched throats with oil tainted land fishy water of artificial and salty ice. And all through each storm-rock- ed night, men bailed. Herring used for bait had melted in the bilge and clogged the pumps with ice and fish. Slight rest was had by doub- ling up in four bunks in the fore- castle, wet and sloshing deep with oil and sea water. Battered Hull Drifts The freak sea had struck when the craft was drifting in the storm off Yakutat and South Ocean Cape, about 25 miles off shore.

Alaska Responds The last remaining blanket was dipped in oil again and rags added to its bulk to make another torch. Aching hands and shoulders swung the torch—and the Alaska blew its whistle in answer and slowed to a stop. Captain O. C. Anderson, veteran skipper of the Alaska, ordered First Mate Emory Joyce over the side with a life boat and four oarsmen. Twenty minutes later the six fish- ermen stumbled over the Alaska’s | rail with hysterical cries of joy. Purser Dave Doran put the men in first class statesrooms and ord- |ered medical attention and hot |food. Every rescued man broke down and cried the tears of chil- dren. Capt. Hansen, lying flat on his back in his bunk this morning, looked with near reverence at Capt. Anderson when that modest seafar- ing man said simply, “Glad T was able to help you Cap,” and an- swered “You were our Savior.” NAoW, COVNSIN-- LOOK AT (T THIS WaY-- 'SPOSE VE WUz 6 HOSS INST\D oF JES' A PLAWN \DJLT- HOWD NE FEEL To "Spcncm’ at Cordova, and that vessel | picked up the wrecked halibut craft |and towed it to Cordova. L The Angeles was 28 net tons, | | 58 feet long, and was built in 1927. | | With gear loss and wreckage, Cap- | |tain Hansen estimates his loss at between $15,000 and $20,000. There were 20,000 pounds of halibut in the hold and the men had but one more day to fish. | Other Wrecks | | The storm in which they were| |wrecked was the same as the one in which the seiner Alden was |lost ; Members of the rescued crew said they might have been able to (live another two days if the Alaska |had missed them, but even that | short time would have been almost impossible, for only five gallons of revolting water were left, a can of corned beef, and bits of soaked food scarcely good enough even for starv- ing men. Scalp Wound Fisherman Halton Reiton suffer- ed a serious scalp wound when the first big sea struck and flung him |to his face. All crew members were |burned badly from standing in the |raw oil and salt water, the vicious liquid eating its way deep into acting flesh. Reiton received med- ical attention at St. Ann’s Hospital while the Alaska was in port this morning. Capt. Hansen displayed legs blist- ered, red and raw from his feet to |his wait, and his face was burned as well, “I've seen many storms, he said, but never was I hit by a sea like that. If we live a hundred years, there will never be another one like it.” After recuperating in Seattle, the Captain and a few of his crew will go north to Cordova and see about repairing their boat. In Accident Before Halton Reiton, who was treated here for a serious scalp wound, is believed by Juneau fishermen to be the man who was skipper of the halibuter Seabird several years ago in a similar sea accident. On that particular occasion, Rei- ton and two men were in the pilot house when a heavy sea struck the craft, knocking the pilot house off /and the three men in it overboard into the sea. Another wave miraculously wash- ed the men and the pilot house aboard again and the three men were saved, although two other hands were lost before the storm Was Over. { | | [ e Wiliam Weddelton was admitted to St. Ann's Hospital Sunday for medical care.
