The Osprey left Rogue River Thurs

sand. She reached Coos Bay some

bar swamped her and caused the little
boat to capsize. Even then she was
righted by another wave.
The tug Roscoe, Captain Tyler, from

trip to the bar about clock to see
the condition of the bar and found it
not possible to 60 out.
Just then he saw the lights of an
