Death Of Bill
Slultz, C. C. Alan
(Continued From Page One)
caught the motor lifeboat on the
starboard bow, partially capsizing
:n i and throwing Surfmen Halsey,
Elkins, and Stultz overboard. Hal
i \ was immediately picked up but
another heavy sea struck the boat
ai i Surfman Meadows was throv^i
overboard. The second civilian was
taken into the lifeboat and while at
tempting to pick up the other men,
engine of the motor lifeboat stopped
and a heavy breaker took her broad
on the port side, capsizing her, and
throwing Hart and the civilian ov
erboard leaving Halsey clinging to
her until sire went ashore on the
r >rks of the north jetty. Hart swam
to the rocks at the end of the north
jetty where he was rescued after
i iinging ti) the rocks for a half hour.
\t ilium motor lifeboat 2160 manned
In Officer in Charge Kistemaker,
Mo. M. M. lc. (L) Croy and Surf
man Lewis, proceeded to the scene
and upon arrival motor lifeboat
44i: ) was seen to completely sub
merge and capsize in a large break
er. As soon as she righted a line
was passed to Halsey, who, in a daz
ed condition, received the line but
another breaker completely sub
merged both lifeboats, causing him
to lose the line. Bv the time motor
lifeboat 2160 could come about the
446!) had drifted well into the north
spit and due to qauntities of wreck
age about, it was impossible to reach
her. Motor lifeboat 2160 then put
about and patrolled just outside the
breakers for over an hour and as
her engine was not working proper
ly and as she could be of no further
aid she proceeded to Depoe Bay for
anchorage. The bodies of Surfman
Elkins and Meadows were picked
up on the beach but the bodies of
Surfman Stultz and the two civil
ians have not as yet been recovered.
Motor lifeboat 4469 is a total loss.
Although five lives were lost in the
above action no blame can be at
tached to the crew of the Yaquina
Bay Station as every effort was put
forth to effect rescue and the three
surfmen lost their lives in attempt
ing to save others."
