World Applauds
Feat of Captain of
Flying Enterprise
By ERNEST AGNEW
CONDON. (/P) — The crippled
Flying Enterprise started under
tow toward Falmouth harbor at a
tedious three knots Saturday. Her
skipper, Capt. Kurt Carlsen, who
refused stubbornly to abandon his
wallowing ship in the face of a
wild sto*rm, was jubilant and con
fident that he is going to win his
long fight against the sea.
Capt. Carlsen’s nine-day ordeal
—nearly seven of them alone in
a darkened and sadly listing Ship
—appeared over, unless the bar
rel-thick towing hawser breaks or
the swelling seas tip the vessel
over.
For the first time since a hurri
can cracked the Flying Enterprise
across the middle and left her
helpless some 300 miles off Eng
land’s southern tip on Dec. 23,
the weather was reported “calm
and the visibility is good.”
Snaking the helpless Enterprise
to port is the powerful sea-going
tug Turmoil, which managed after
30 hours of struggle to secure a
towline to the bow of the
freighter. On the deck of the
Enterprise—tilting at a perilous
70 to 80 degrees—the stubborn,
Danish-born skipper still stands,
joined now by the Turmoil’s first
mate, Keneth Dancy, watching the
groaning hawser ease his ship
along.
The hearts of seamen the world
over—and many n landlubber, too
—also were on the Enterprise,
wishing the 37-year-old captain
well. Old sailors in England, who
hailed Carlsen’s devotion to duty
as being in the highest tradition
of the sea, planned to welcome
the skipper when he comes
ashore.
Capt. Oarlsen chose to stay
aboard his ship “until I am towed
or sunk” to avoid any possibility
that the vessel and its cargo
might become a derelict “free
prize.” A spokesman for a New
York insurance syndicate said the
eight-year-old, 396-foot ship is in
sured for $1,250,000.
HOLDUP MEN BEWARE
CLEVELAND, 1/P) — Stowers
Cafe is no place for crooks.
In 1933, proprietor Joe Stowers,
59, chased three robbers with his
revolver. In 1943 he shot and
killed a holdup man.
Last September his wife, Lor
etta, 43, fired four shots at two
bandits, and recently she sent 16
shots from two automatics after
two other hoodlums.
“Not a cent ever has been
stolen from the cafe,” says Mrs.
Stowers: “We’re very cool
headed.”
