Two Seaman Die
In Accident on
Carrier Roosevelt
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. {#>—’The
aircraft carrier Franklin D.
Roosevelt limped into port early
yesterday, the victim of its second
accident at sea in two months.
On board were two dead and
five seriously injured crewmen.
They were sprayed by live steam
which spewed out when a pump
exploded deep inside the 45,000
taa warship Wednesday.
Twenty-nine other crewmen
were stricken with heat prostra
tion or exhaustion, many of them
in efforts to rescue trapped com
rades.
Capt. T. W. Hopkins credited
heroism and the fine training of J
U.S. Navy men with holding down j
the number of casualties. He said 1
“I can’t pinpoint one single man”
for heroism; “all are equally de
serving of praise.”
Fifty to 60 men entered the
fierce steam for rescue work or
to help confine damage.
The explosion blew pieces of
the pump through two bulkheads
as well as the steam lines.

Right on the Subject
RICHMOND, Va„ (A*)— Actor Don
Murray, an active layman in the
Church of the Brethern, gave a,
speech at the denomination’s con
vention here Wednesday night on
passive resistance and then asked
for questions.
One of the youthful church
members wanted to know “what
was it like kissing Marilyn Mon
roe” in the motion picture “Bus
Stop.”
“I don’t mind answering that
question,” Murray said, “because
it ties right in with the subject
of non-violent resistance.”

Two Eskimos Die
When Weasel
Sinks Thru Sea lee
BARROW, Alaska, (4*1—Two Es
kimos drowned but four survived
Wednesday when a Weasel
dragging two loaded sleds went
thru the sea ice within a thousand
yards of the Rogers and Post
monument here Wednesday.
The dead are Furst Koonaloak,
42, and Perry Ekowana, 17. Their
bodies have not been recovered.

der the ice are Nate Neakok,
driver and owner of the Weasel;

17; and Allen Kaleak, 30.
Drainage from the lagoon had
weakened the ice and the Weasel

to slip on top of it.

father, four brothers and three
sisters; Ekowana by his parents
and eight sisters. All are residents
of Brrow.
