72-Year-Old “Ambassador
of Good Will” Hiking To
Alaska From Georgia
WICHITA. Kan., Iff)—A self-ap
pointed “ambassador of good will”
from Thomasville, Ga., stopped
here Saturday on his long hike
from Georgia to Alaska.
The “ambassador” is 72-year-old
Smokey Cameron, an Apache In
dian; who claims to be a grandson
of the famous chief, Cochise. He
began walking from Thomasville
on Jan 23, his last birthday, Cam
eron said.
Cameron, a World War I veter
an, said he represents the Amer
ican Legion post there and at each
stop invites fellow Legionaires to
visit Thomasville.
He was born in Tombstone,
Ariz., he said, and left Cochise
County in 1947 after his wife and
two children were killed in a cat
tle stampede, moving to Thomas
ville.
Since leaving Arizona, Cameron
claims he has covered nearly
37,000 miles, mostly on foot, and
believes this will be his last trip.

Blast At Seymour
Narrows An
Apparent Success
CAMPBELL RIVER. B.C., UP—
Ripple Rock, terror of seafarers,
blew up Saturday in a titantic un
derwater burst—mightiest ever
triggered outside of the Atomic
Age.
The detonation of 2,750,000
pounds of high explosive spewed
700,000 tons of shattered rock and
water in Seymour Narrows, nine
miles North of here. -
Exactly on schedule, the nitra
mex 2-H was touched off at 9:31
a.m. from a sheltered bunker on
Quandra Island, 2,400 feet from
the rock.
The geyser from the unprece
dented explosion mushroomed
hundreds of feet in ^he air and
spread for nearly half a mile on
each side.
The earth trembled. A con
cussion wave spread through the
air for miles around. A small
tidal wave pushed out in both
directions from the two-mile
narrows.
A massive air, sea and land
blockade sealed off the area.
All inhabitants within three miles
had been evacuated. Ships were
| kept at least five miles away.
Only tracer and scientific planes
were aloft.
Within seconds ()f the explo
sion, a mushroom cloud of smoke
and dust spread over Vancouver
Island, which forms the left bank
of the narrows, and Maud and
Quadra Islands on the right.
The blast was timed to go off
.iust after low tide when the ripe
! would be flowing Northward
through the narrows and dampen
the effect of the tidal wave set up.
To observers in news and tele
vision bunkers 7,000 feet away it
appeared that the blast had gone
off perfectly.
If everything went according to
plan the top 30 feet of the twin
domed rock will have been
sheared off, leaving a safe chan
; nel at least 40 feet at low tide.
