Propellor Tears Loose,
Kills Plane Passenger,
Injures 10 Others
WINDSOR, Ont., (*>—A propel
lor tore loose from a four-engine
Trans-Canada airliner Monday
and disintegrated while the plane
was flying at 8,000 feet over
Michigan. One blade ripped thru
the cabin, killing a woman pas
senger and injuring 10 others.

British jet-prop airliner since it
was put into service in North
America 15 months ago.
Killed when the blade cut thru
the fuselage was Mrs. Robert J.
Lippert, 31, whose husband is a
doctor at the Mayo Clinic in
Rochester, Minn.
Mrs. Lippert’s two sons, Rob

suffered shock and were among
five persons taken to a hospital.
Five others were treated at the
scene for minor injuries.

Congress Passes
Heroin Bill, Sends
It to White House
WASHINGTON, Utt—Congress
lias sent to the White House a
bill prescribing stiller penalties,
including death, in the hope of
discouraging the peddling oi nar
cotics.
The measure is expected to be
signed into law by President Eis
enhower since it carries out rec
ommendations made early this
year by a Cabinet committee.
The bill, passed by the Senate
and House Monday, would in
crease present penalties for nar
cotics law violations and permit
the death sentence for persons
who sell or give heroin to chil
dren under 18. The death penalty
would apply when recommended
by juries in states permitting
capital punishment.
Without a jury’s recommenda
tion, the penalty for the heroin
law violation could be 10 years to
life, even for a first offense.
In addition, the bill would out
law heroin in this country except
for research and require all her
oin to be turned over to the
Treasury Department within 120
days.
WILLIAM A. HESSE,
IN NOME 1900 TO 1907,
DIES IN L.A. AT 78
William A. Hesse, who lived in
Nome from 1900 to 1907, died in
Los Angeles June 5, 1956. He
was 78.
Hesse’s entry into Alaska via
Nome in 1900 marked the begin
ning of 45 year# that he spent in
the territory. There may not be
many persons in Nome or there
abouts who remember William A.
Hesse when he had a surveyor’s
office there from 1900 till 1907,
but if there are some who recall
those hectic days of judges and
lawsuits, they may also recall a
tall youth of 22 or 23, who spent
his time making surveys and
maps of some of the very mines
which were causing so much al
tercation.
After his sojourn of seven years
in Nome, Hesse moved to a more
central location, Seward, where
for four years he had a surveyor’s
office.
Hesse was territorial highway
highway engineer from 1931 to
1945. He was the first to hold that
office by the vote of the people
of Alaska; hitherto, the position
had been one of appointment by
the governor. As evidenced by the
large electoral vote he received
at each of the four elections—the
first term was for only two years,
the other three terms were for
four years—he knew Alaskans
and had friends all over the ter
ritory.
Hesse joined the Mount Mc
Kinley Lodge of Masons at Cor
dova in 1918 and was a 32-degree
Mason.
He leaves a wife, a son, and a
grand-nephew, his name-sake,
William A. Hesse, in Boise, Ida.
Baseball innings originally
were called hands, and runs were
‘called aces. The game ended when
either side made 21 aces.
