Drowns While Trying
To Land Barracuda
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.,
</P)—You’d probably say a man’s
life is worth more than a barra- '
cuda.
But that W3s the price paid
Monday.
Richard Brown, 33, fell into the
ocean and drowned while trying
to pull in a fish that had broken
away from his gaff.
Brown grabbed the line and was
about to pull in the fish. The
barracuda made one last break
for freedom and Brown fell over
board. He sank immediately.

Duokhobor Leader Dies
VANCOUVER, B. C., {&)—.Mi
chael (the Archangel) Verigin, 68
year-old Doukhobor leader, died
here Saturday in a hospital, sur
rounded by members of the
strange religious sect.
Founder of a settlement at Hil
liers, B. C., on Vancouver, Is
land, he had been in the hospital
since July 12. Brought here for
an emergency operation, he con
tracted post-operative pneumonia.
Seems as if some people grow
with responsibility . . . others
just swell.
