Old Graveyard Of
Lost Ships Found
E. Yorkshire Coast
JOINER’S SHOP ON YORKSHIRE
COAST HAS NAME PLATES
OF OVER 50 VESSELS
(TSy The Associated Press)
LONDON, July 31, —A curious
graveyard of lost ships has been
unearthed on the East Yorkshire
coast, at Mappleton, by a corres
pondent of The Daily Telegraph of
London. For the past (iG years this
graveyard has been maintained by
the brothers Ake, in their joiner’s
shop, in Mappleton. The remains
consist of parts of ships which,
without a trace of their crews, have
been cast up on the inclement coast.
Here are the name plates of more
than 50 vessels of all nationalities.
They include that of the George,
wrecked GO years ago and that of the
Premier II, a Bridlington vessel lost
a year ago. Thomas Ake said:
Behind every name plate there is
the story of a rescue or a tragedy.
One name plate—the Victoria— re
calls my boyhood days when I saw
her wrecked off Mappleton. I also
saw the wreck of the Amcott, lost
oft Tunstall in November 1893, with
15 lives. I and my brother have
spent days and nights on the beach
es, and in the old days of sailing
ships we found something every day.
During the war we found large
quantities of candles, lard, butter,
matches and a number of gruesome
things.
Among those name plates you will
see the Bessie Hiller of Fuversham.
She was washed up at Aldborough
upside down, and no trace of her
crew was ever found. There are
Norwegian, Russian and Italian ves
sels among them, but the majority
are British.

Becomes A Local
Hero In New Film
__j
‘The .silliest man in America’ comes
to the Dream Theatre Friday night
in ‘THE CHIEF.' hearalded as one
of the big laugh epics of the year.
Ed. Wynn, of course, is the star.
Millions of radio fans who have
wondered what happened to Wynn’s
broadcasts these past few months
will know the answer when they see
The Chief,’ which was suggested by
the character he made famous on
the networks. He's been in Holly
wood making the picture for Metro
Gold wyn-Muyer.
Lovely Dorothy Mackaill, whose
beauty lias graced many film suc
cesses, appears opposite Wynn. Oth
ers in the cast are Chas. ‘Chic’ Sale,
beloved character funster. William
(Stage) Boyd, Efiie Ellsler, who was
a Broadway star a generation ago,
and C. Henry Gordon.
‘The Chief’ is the story of a sim
ple Bowery Boy of the early nineties
son of a heroic fireman who gave his j
life in a great holocaust. The boy
is swept to local fame by a couple
of conniving politicians. How he
gets there, and the vamping of the
alluring Miss Mackaill, is the story.
Packed with typical Wynn humor,
The Chief’ is said to set new laugh
ing standards for America. Wynn
boasts that he has never said a sen
sible tiling on the stage, and his
screen appearance is no exception.
