Search Made For
Freighter Crew
SEATTLE, (/P) — Navy and
Coast Guard planes roared out
over the North Pacific early yes
t e r d a y seeking the crippled
freighter Pennsylvania and her
45 officers and crewmen believed
helplessly adrift in lifeboats.
Surface vessels also converged
on the spot where the Pennsyl
vania, outbound for Japan, ra
dioed late Wednesday she was
cracking up in a raging storm.
One rescue ship, the Japanese
freighter Kimakawa Maru, was
expected to reach the area about
8 a.m., PST.
A terse “leaving now” was the
last report from the Pennsyl
vania, apparently filed, the Coast
Guard said, as the men were
abandoning ship.
The distress signal was traced
to a spot some 600 miles south of
the southern coastline of central
Alaska, and 465 miles northwest
of the northern tip of Vancouver
Island.
Thirteenth District Coast Guard
headquarters here said a Coast
Guard plane left the Port An
geles, Wash., air station and two
Navy planes took off from Whid
by Island Naval Air Station plan
ning to arrive at the scene at day
break. •
Interesting, If True
NEW YORK, (/P) — Believe it
or not, men, a kiss can be irri
tating. A congressional investi
gating committee discovered this
Thursday while looking into the
use of chemicals in cosmetics.
Dr. Marin B. Sulzberger, a
dermatologist, told the committee
that a man may incur skin irri
tation by kissing a woman if he
is allergic to ingredients in her
lipstick.
Army Exonorates Two
Girls Fired 4 Years Ago
As Bad Security Risks
WASHINGTON, (JP) — The1
army apologized Friday to two
government girls it fired as se
curity risks four years ago and i
offered to return them to their
old jobs and pay them any money
they lost as a result of the dis
missals.
Said Eleanor Deak, 26, of Jer
myn, Pa.: “It is regrettable that
four long, heart-sick years for me
•and my family have had to pass
before my good name could be
cleared.”
Grace Patton, 35, of Charlotte,
N.C., said “it’s been a long fight,
but we made it. I’m awfully
happy the case is all over with.”
Miss Deak said in a statement
that “The police state can hap
pen here unless the people, their
representatives and the courts are
ever alert to the dangers inherent
in the granting of the summary
discharge power to civil adminis
trators.”
The two were dismissed from
trfe army finance center in St.
Louis in March, 1948.

Nome Cub Scouts
Nome’s Cub Scout Pack com
mittee adopted final plans for
star gazing at the next Pack meet
ing, the 24th of this month. The
individual dens will become ac
quainted with the planets—Buck
Rogers and all, and Robert Bald
win, one of Nome’s astronomy en
thusiasts and a Cub dad will fill
in some important details at the
pack meet.
Ray Hawk, Cubmaster, had
some preliminary plans for the
February program, the annual
Blue and Gold Banquet—with ice
cream definitely part of the menu.
Everett Adams and Mrs. Her
mann Ashley were added to the
list of registered leaders, with
young Jimmy coming up with !
his 8th birthday soon.
Sam Ailak has promised to head
the April Cub Scout dog-team
racing (one dog per team) with
Ernest Ailak and Jimmy Adams,
newest cubs, assigned to the Bou
cher den.
Word came to Bob Treat, Scout
ing Neighborhood Commissioner,
that the Pribilof Islands had re- j
cently organized both a Boy Scout
troop and a Cub Scout pack. The
map sort of rules ‘ them out as
being in the Nome neighborhood,
but the pack leaders voted a mes
sage of congratulation to the Prib
ilof Islanders.
