M.S. Kotzebue
Safely Weathers
Severe Storm
With only a day’s fuel supply
and a very limited amount of
food left, the M.S. Kotzebue, a
week overdue, arrived in the safe
ty of Nome Harbor Friday night.
Several hours earlier, the ship
had been sighted off Sledge Is
land by the U.S. Coast Guard
plane, which had been searching
for several days.
The crew o*f three as well as
the crew of an Army tug, taken
aboard the Kotzebue when the
tug could no longer be towed,
were exhausted from the storm
which they had weathered suc
cessfully.
According to reports, and as
Jack Bullock, manager of the B
& R Lighterage Co. which had
the ship under charter, had pre
dicted, the Ko'tzebue had headed
into the storm when they found
they could not make Nome Har
bor and spent some of the time
near the mouth of the Yukon Riv
er.
A barge which was in tow is
adrift southeast of Nome and, it
is reported, will be located from
the air and picked up by the
Kotzebue today. It is also repor
ted that the Kotzebue will prob
ably make another trip north to
its home port of Kotzebue, as the
weather is still mild.
Ralph Grosvold, skipper of the
Kotzebue is an experienced Al
askan from southeastern Alaska
and has as crew Alex Pushruk
and Steve Dickson.
The men from the abandoned
Army tug were Cpl. Obert Raikes
and Pfc. George Shaw.
The Kotzebue is owned by
Archie Ferguson. The MS. Finch,
also belong to Archie Ferguson,
is here today to assist in picking
up the barge.
