Raft Lehi IV Drifts
From California To
Hawaii In 69 Days
HONOLULU, UP) — An adven
turous Mormon elder and his
three young crewmen — who
drifted to Hawaii from California
aboard the raft Lehi IV — fly here
today from the Island of Maui.
Skipper De Vare Baker, 42,
boatbuilder from Petaluma, Calif.,
near San Francisco, will be re
united with his wife Nola and
three children.
The raft arrived off Maui Satur
day afternoon after a 69-day voy
age from Long Beach, 2,100 miles
to the east. When Baker and his
bearded crew and their dog Tor
goroa were sighted, they were
down to their last four cans of
spinach and tomatoes.
The raft was towed into port at
Kahului by a tuna boat. All the
mariners were in good condition.
Asked what his trip proved,
Baker told newsmen: “The Coast
Guard put it very nicely when
they congratulated us on proving
Hawaiians thousands of years ago
came from the Americas, the same
way we did.”
With Baker were Larry Foglino,
31, a UCLA psychologist; Don
McFarland, 27, University of
New Mexico student, and Ed Ke
kuala, 27, a Brigham Young Uni
versity dehtal student.
Earlier attempts by Baker to
drift to Hawaii had failed.
Tempest In Coffeepot
Embroils Employes
Of Beech Nut Foods
CANAJOHARIE, N. Y., UP) —
It’s a tempest in a coffee pot.
Should employes of Beech-nut
Life Savers Inc., a major coffee
roaster, pay for the coffee they
drink at work?
Yes, the company told workers
at its baby-food plant here, and
tossed the traditional free cup
down the drain. Coffee will be a
nickel, to cover rising cafeteria
costs, the company said.
No, argued the Beech-Nut Em
ployes Assn., which represents the
1,200 workers. Free coffee is a
fringe benefit, the union claimed.
