( Frame completed, the Ark of Ju- neau, a metal skeleton covered wuh‘ canvas, started its journey to Ta-| coma, Washington, welded to a $15| truck body and the family driving| and living within. Four months later they ‘drove into Tacoma, where tragedy over- took them and a baby boy died, cut- ting the number of children to nine—two grown children are back Eludes ¢ On April 21, after living on odd work, Satko and his family set sail n the arduously planked Ark on their way to Alaska. In Seattle, maritime men and state courts were not so friendly. The Satkos lacked certain maritime requirements in lights, life preservers and so forth until yacht club folks came through And then there was the trouble caused by a Supreme Court Judge on the Washington State bench who forbade the children to board the vessel But nothing in the court order said the Satko children and mama couldn't go by automobile, so the Satkos divided forces, Hazel and her Dad starting out alone for Everett and joining them there. For five days they lived in Ev- erett, and then again a portion of the Satko family went to LaCon- nor by car while Hazel and her Dad went on by Ark of Juneau. From LaConnor, the family, still dividied by the law and under sur- veillance of the Coast Guard, went by Ark and by car to Anacortes— “The jumping off place,” as Satko put it Makes a Break Thinking it over, Satko decided to make a run for it. Just before the office of the Customs closed, he cleared for Ketchikan, and with the entire family aboard, set out in the wee sma’ hours of the morning, a drear wind and rain blowing followed a course around Orcas Is- land to evade the Coast Guard, and by the time the customs offices in Anacortes were open in the morn- ing, he was safely in Canadian wa- ters. Today in Juneau, Satko realizes he will make a little change from the story of his trip, but just now he declares he doesn't know whether he will go back to some cove along the route or try to find work here and put the children in school. His 1927 Buick engine which pow- ers his craft, has done faithful duty all the way, he said, but reduction gears have given him trouble. At Point Ashley, half way between Petersburg and Juneau, Satko had to weld two new teeth in the gears and proceed at half speed. He doesn’t think the engine will go much fur- ther. “My transmission’s about wore out, and my pocketbook t0o,” he smiled. Definitely a curiosity to hundreds {who examined the vessel, the Ark drew more or a crowd yesterday than Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes last summer, but the Satko’s found much of interest in Juneau throngs. In fact, when a crowd went down the harbor aboard Kinky Bayers' Forester to photoragph the strange arrival, cocked their cameras and prepared to expose film—Satko “beat them to the draw” and took pictures of them. —e——— _DIVORCE _GRANTED .
