Another mem- ber of the party, Gregg Johnson, was picked up by a boat while swimming to shore for help. Young Lyon, in a letter to his father, G. A. Lyon, as- sociate editor of The Star, gives this account of his experience: “Thursday afternoon about 3:30 Gregg Johnson, two girls from an art class and myself started out for a sail. I've done the same thing a hundred times hefore. The wind was puffy and the sea choppy, but not bad, because there were a good many sail boats in the bay. About 6:20 we de- cided to head for home. We came about and I reached for the bailer to bail out the bilge water when a puff of wind caught us just wrong and over she went. “We were all good swimmers and Gregg is way above the average, so we all laughed at the mishap and Gregg said the Coast Guard will ve out in about 15 minutes. After roll- ing the water-logged boat over, Gregg | took a penknife and cut the sail from | the mast and dumped the ballast. Then she came up a little higher in the water and the mast stuck up. | " “I asked the girls how they felt, and | they said, ‘Fine. I thought that the whole accident was a nuisance, which would make us late to dinner and | soak our clothes, although I had on a bathing suit and linen coat and & | sweater in the boat. We were midway | between the Long Point Light House | and the Truro shore, 3 miles to each. Offered to Swim for Aid. “While T held the boat over, Gregg | tied my coat to the mast, and then we steadied her so the mast was out of water. After about 30 minutes | Gregg said: ‘I'm getting cold, and I can easily swim to the point and send out the Coast Guard.’ I said: ‘Don't be a fool, Gregg. Stay here until we're picked up.’ THE WEATHER District of Columbia—Partly cloudy. | probably local showers tonight and | tomorrow; not quite so warm tonight; gentle east winds becoming variabie.

He turned around and yelled, ‘Don’t leave the boat.’ We said, ‘All right’ We were about a quarter of a mile from some weirs, but I noticed that we were floating away from them toward the distant Truro shore. “Then the long wait began. An hour went by. I said: ‘They'll soon begin to miss us’ One of the girls a i ‘I wish they would hurry up. Then another hour went by, and it was rapidly getting dark. A large sailboat came toward us, got within a mile, turned around and sailed away. That almost killed the girls. That was the boat that picked up Gregg off the point as he was nearing the shore. But they missed us and went back to notify the Coast Guard. “I took my coat off the mast and put it on, although it didn't help much and I knew that if I had to swim for the shore the extra weight would probably sink me. I said: ‘How are you doing, girls?’ They said: ‘Fine! How about you?’ I said: ‘Don't think. Make your minds a blank. Don't waste any energy.’ They said: All right, but they wished the Coast Guard would come. “It was now about 9 o'clock. lights begin to flick in the harbor and I told the girls the good news. None of the lights came nearer than a mile. After that when I saw lights I didn’t say anything, because when they failed to come our way it was too tough on the girls. “I began to notice that the Truro shore seemed nearer. I told the girls that. we were floating ashore. They thought that I was just trying to cheer them up. We all got cramps, but Isaid: ‘Never mind, cramps won't kill you.' Worried About Gregg. “I began to be worried about Gregg. Help was so long in coming that I was afraid he hadn’t made it. Both the tide and the wind were against him “One of the girls thought that may- be the Johnsons had gone out to dinner and a show and that was why we hadn't been missed. The shore was getting closer, but very slowly. I said: ‘Girls, I think we'll be on the beach in another two hours.’ They said: ‘Good Lord, two more hours'! I sa ‘Maybe we’ll see a sunrise.’ They said what they wanted to see was a hot bath. “About half an hour later one of the girls, Dorothy Nelson, said: ‘I can touch bottom. Those were certainly sweet words to hear. We started to walk ashore and I said: ‘Wait a min- ute! We're on a sand bar and the water might go over our heads again before we reach shore and we'll lose the boat in the darkness’ We went back and dragged the boat along for & way, but we were too tired to do pulling. y that time I knew that the sand bar went all the way to shore. So I said: “Let the boat go and we'll walk ashore.” We walked about a quarter of a mile toward the lights of some cottages. As we got close I saw & woman Jooking out of a window. She didn’t see us, but was watching & light on one of the search boats. We sud- denly arrived, much to her amaze- ment, and told our story. There was & man in the house. I said: ‘Have you a phone’ He said ‘no,’ but there was | one next door. I said: ‘Call up the Johnsons and find out about Gregg.' He asked me to write down the address and I found that I couldn’t write. But he went off and made the call.

C., WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 18, came in and said that Gregg was saved, and we all began to feel better. Then a newspaper reported arrived and I said: ‘Even the Coast Guard haven't found us yet’ He said a taxi drivef had told him that three people were drowned in the bay. He took a picture. Dorothy sal ‘Don't let this get in the Chicago papers. It would worry my mother.’ ‘It won't’ he re- plied. “With that, cars began to stop out- side. Mr. Johnson arrived with the Coast Guard at last. The Coast Guard loaned the girls warm coats and took us over to the Race Point Station for coffee and doughnuts. Another reporter arrived, took more pictures and asked more questions. The Coast Guard asked questions, Their dog sat in fny lap and ate doughnuts. “Helen Wires said: ‘Well, at last 1937. Tl have something to write home sabout.” After the coffee we were taken home. “That's the story. The next morn- ing I went off to paint to get it off my mind.” L. F.
