YOUTH RIDES HUGE WHALE, BAREBACK; IS THRILLING EVENT, } PROVINCETOWN, Mass. June 29 —IM—A story worthy of competing with the top thrilling tales of the old whaling days was recorded today by a 17-year-old lobster fisherman who “rede” a 60-foot mammal bare- ! back. The strange story was told by Frank E. Cabral, Jr., after he was brought ashore hy his father Sun- day. | Frank and his dad were hauling lobster pots in separate dories about 500 yards apart off Race Point when a huge whale came to the surface and submerged. Suddenly, the whale came up again —right under Frank’s small dory. Both Frank and the boat were thrown, he estimated, about 15 feet |into the air. | When he came down, the young fisherman said, he landed on the whale's back. He dug his fingers _ deep into the soft blubber. | After a short ride of “20 knots or Letter,” Frank related, the whale sounded and he took a long chance and dove off before the mammal submerged. Young Cabral swam as fast as he could to his father's dory and was pulled aboard. “It was a funny feeling,” Frank exclaimed as he examined his dory which had a large hole in the bot- tom.
