Wrecked Troller
SITKA, (j*P) — One person was
listed as dead and another missing
Saturday as a result of an invest -
gation by federal authorities of a
wrecked troller 40 miles north of
here.
The body of an unidentified wo
, man was found floating in the wa
ter near the wreck scene at Kahz
Bay. However, officers said her
death apparently had no connec
tion with the boat mishap. They
said the woman, about 40, had
been in the water a long time.
The troller was registered to
Tom Running, well-known Jun
eau fisherman. He was presumed
lost. His boat was last seen a week
ago. The bottom of the vessel had
been torn out by rocks.
Further investigation of the
mystery was turned over to the i
coast guard.
Jos Dexter and granddaughter
are in towij for a visit from their
home in Golovin. They expect to
remain several days visiting in
Nome before returning home. ,

Moses Lake Air Force Base,
Wash., (iP)—Pilots who fly the air
force’s newest jet bomber, the Boe
ing B-47 Stratojet, say it handles
like a fighter despite its near B-29
size and weight.
Scott Osier, Boeing test pilot,
told reporters the men who take
up the 60-ton, 600-mile an hour
ship “feel that it flies a lot better
than any other large airplane. L’s
more like a fighter than a B-29.’’
His discussion came during the
first visit of newsmen to this iso- i
•lated base, put to work recently
for flight testing the B-47. It soon
will be a night fighter base.
Osier told how he B-47 stepped
away from an early model Lock
heed F-80 Shooting Star one day
while the two were flying wing-to
wing so that the air speed instru
ments of the bomber could be
checked against those of the fight
0
er.
“When we got up to the higher
ranges, the F-80 just couldn’t keep
up,” Osier said. That model lighter
probably would do around 550
miles per hour. The air force will
not say what the B-47 can do, but
it is rated at more than 600 miles
per hour.
Only two B-47’s have been built
hus far.
