FISHERMAN FALLS FROM
 BOAT AND DROWNS

Charley Olson, a fisherman who makes his headqu&rteds at Ketchi- kan, was drowned in Chomley Sound, near Casina Point, last Fri day night. Olson and his partner were in the bay trolling, it was along about the dinner hour and Olson left for the gas boat to pre- pare the evening meal. He was last seen on the stern of the boat splitting wood iu preparation for starting a fire. When Dave Brod- erious rowed up to the boat his partner had disappeared. His dis aIICarance can only be accounted fer in one way and that is that in all probability he fell off the boat. A careful search has not revealed his body. He was well known among fishermen in Southeastern Alaska.
