SCRIP BOOK EXERPS
(By “Babe” Ilayes, Cordova)
Jos. L. Clough, Nashua, N. H.,—
“This will thank you for the copy of
the Cordova Times All-Alaska Issue
which I received three or four days
ago. It is a most creditable produc
•
Con. I knew'the Times had a good
limit there, but didn’t suppose they
■could handle this sort of a job.”
You read it in The Gateway first.

j Further details have been received
of the accident which resulted in the
| death of Lieut. Rhea and Radio-man
' Lonergpn, of the U. S. S. Omaha,
j former Seward young man, while
j “spotting” torpedoes off Point Loma,
I Calif., on February S, 1928.
Lonergan and Rhea were out spot
I ting torpedoes, which means after a
| torpedo is fired and has become ex
hausted, it floats near the surface, and
the plane locates it for the ship by
“zooming”, or diving to within a few
feet of the water directly over the tor
pedo; the ship immediately comes and
picks it up.
It is said hv men who saw the acci
dent, that the plane had “zoomed” j
the torpedo and was up about 400 feet,
when Rhea made a left turn as though
to zoom again. He apparently, did
not have sufficient speed and the
plane went into a spin.
Not having enough altitude to gain
control, they turned, or spun around
twice and hit the water on their back,
which undoubtedly killed both men
instantly.
A destroyer, which was but a couple
of boat-lengths away, rushed to the
scene and made a line fast to the J
plane, but the heavy seas broke the
line and the plape went down in 800 j
afthoms of water.

SMALL NUMBER BOATS
Lsat year at this time of the hal
Jibut fishing season more than 40 boats
had called in the Port of Seward but
todate, this season, they can be count
ed, almost, on the fingers of both
i hands. It will be recalled last Feb
ruary severe storms at sea drove a
i good many here for new gear. The
(prevailing low price on halibut is
| said to be the greatest drawback and
it is hoped the surplus stocks now in
storage will soon be disused of.
