Cruiser Wrecked
In Boat Race
SEATTLE (7P»—Wrecked Friday
night on Puget Sound, the 37-foot
cruiser Dorothy became a casual
ty of the 1947 international pre
dicted -log powerboat race from
Bremerton, Wash., to Nanaimo, B.
C. None of the seven persons
aboard was injured.
As a result of the accident, how
ever, nine race officials were not
on hand for the finish of the 145
nautical-mile event in which 132
power cruisers competed.
The officials were being taken
to Nanaimo on the coast guard
cutter Naugatuck, which turned
aside to aid the stricken cruiser.
The Dorothy rammed a barge
off Possession Point just after
turning a new leg on her course,
the owner W. T. Coy of White
Center said. He and his party re
turned to Seattle aboard the Nau
gatuck Saturday.
Failure of the race officials to
reach the finish line did not pre
vent the accurate check of the
many cruisers as they completed
their run. Many Canadian yachts
men who have been working
closely with officials at Bremerton
were at Nanaimo to compare run
ning and predicted times.
'Alaska Ships To
Be Loaded From
Largest Pier
SEATTLE, </P)—The successful
acquisition of Pier 42, for Alaska
shipping, one of the largest dock
ing facilities on the Pacific coast,
, has been announced here by Mi
chael Dederer of Seattle.
Mr. Dederer. who is chairman of
the Alaska committee of the Seat
tle chamber of commerce, said the
| gigantic wartime dock which con
sists of two loading piers, railroad
sidings and tremendous warehouse
! space, will be used by steamer
lines serving Alaska and will
eliminate standby time while
boats are being loaded.
According to Mr. Dederer as
many as 150 trucks can discharge
their loads inside the pier at one
time. The pier is well equipped
with loading accessories, such as
fork lifts, powered trucks, cranes
' and other devices to facilitate
loading.
It was one of the main staging
facilities during the war for the
army’s Pacific campaign and un
til only a few months ago was still
on the highly secret list.
Mr. Dederer said the Seattle
chamber of commerce had been
j working since the war’s end to
Guerrillas Fight;
And Gross Border
—
ATHENS, (/P)—Press dispatches
deported today that guerrilla
bands had attacked two points in
northern Greece near the Yugo
slav border, and that in each case
they withdrew after battle to Yu
goslav territory.
Greek troops pursued harassing
action against leftist forces in the
mountains near the frontier of Al
bania. Yugoslav’s western neigh
bor, after repelling the offensive
against Konitsa last week.
Dispatches today from Salonika
said 400 guerrillas had attacked
Mouries, 25 miles north of Ealon
ika, at dawn yesterday but were
repelled by Creek commandos who
killed 10 before the remaining
guerrillas fled across the Yugoslav
border two miles away.
Army casualties were two killed
and two wounded.
, have the dock facilities transfer
red for Alaska use. Col. Warner
E. Lampert, Seattle post commis
sioner, was highly instrumental
in arranging the lease with RFC
j in Washington.
