THE KEY WEST CITIZEN raat One Dead, Fight Missing In Boat Crash WILMINGTON, Del.. —An oil tanker and a gasoline-laden barge burst into flames after colliding in the rain-swept Delaware River 15 miles south of here Sunday night. One man is known dead and eight are missing. The vessels were identified by the Coast Guard as the 10,441-ton tanker Michael, with a cargo of! erude oil, and the motor barge E. D. Dodds. They crashed to- gether shortly before midnight. Searing, gasoline - fed flames swept the badly smashed Dodds, which carried a crew of nine. She was reported split in two with the stern section sinking. The Michael, also burning, was able to limp away from the scene and later re- ported its fire under control. One man, nude except for the life jacket which kept him afloat, died minutes after he was picked up by rescuers. He was not iden- tified but was believed to be a *erewman on the Dodd. Two other men, also Dodd crew- mmbers, were rescued from the water and taken to Wilmington General Hospital suffering from burns and shock. There was no immediate word | of the fate of the other six men aboard the barge. The Michael, bound for Pauls- boro, N. J., from Persia with a crew of 40, reported two men missing — the third mate and a seaman. The collision was the third such | tragedy within 10 days in this busy shipping area. On May 15, two ships collided | and burned in the nearby Dela- ware and Chesapeake Canal, kill- ing four men. bast week three men drowned when a freighter and tug smashed together in the Dela- ware near Chester, Pa. Sjur Tellifsen, one of the Dodd} erewmen, told rescuers he was sleeping below decks on the barge when the collision occurred. “When the terrible crash woke me up [ didn’t wait to find out what the trouble was,” he said. “I jumned out the nearest port- | hole and swam until I reached a buoy. id swimming in the water but I was unable to help them. Pretty foon a tug saw me on the buoy and pitked me up.” Tellifsen said his barge, cap-| tained by John D. Elliott, Collings- dale, Pa., carried 16,500 barrels of Sasoline and was bound from Cam- mn, N. J., to Baltimore. \ eSihenle FINAL FLA, PRIMARY * (Continued From Page One) | tion, Sam Pinder to make the| ofiieial canvass of both the ma- chine and absentee vote: It con- | sists of County Judge Raymond R.

When the last such congress was held in Budapest in 1938, an uneasy world, then as now, was trying to avoid a war. The central theme of the prayers for this congress is peace — peace of man with him- self; peace in his home and the factory; peace among natjons, and peace in the Church of Christ. Every non-communist country in the world is represented among the host of pilgrims in this second city of Spain. The countries dominated by Soviet communism are repre- sented only by their exiles. The congress honors the Catholic belief in the Holy Eucharist, the belief that Jesus Christ is truly present in the bread and wine of nd go to| the sacrament of Holy Commun- ion. The first such celebration was held at Lille, France, in 1881. This week's gathering is the 35th.

The turning over of 100 per- cent interest in the pipe line to the Navy and the immediate | sale of $775,000 in new water/ bonds ave little to do with the immediate prospect of more water for dried up Key West. Though $285,000 of the new bond issue of $775,000 will be used for five new water storage tanks, the supply of water to fill these tanks will not be upped until .dditional pumping - sta- tions are established. Under the arrangement seal- ed in Miami today by Dr. Hayes, the Florida Keys Aque- duct Commission will buy its water from the Navy at an average of 36 cents per thou- sand gallons.
