CAPT. KNIGHT AND RADIOS
 KEEPERS LIFE
Catherine D. Rescues In jured Lighthouse Man
 from Scotch Cap
(Ketchikan Chronicle)

(Ketchikan Chronicle)
 August Detlefsen, who is in the Ketchikan General Hospital, un doubtedly owes his life to Captain w. B. Knight of the Catherine D., one of the big steamships operat- ed by the Pacific American Fish cries company.
 Detlefsen is one of the first as sistants at the Scotch Cap light house on the Aleutian Peninsula maintained by the United States lighthouse bureau, under the di- rection of Captain w. c. Dibrell with headquarters in Ketchikan.
 Several months ago Detlefsen was blown off his feet by the wind and fell 15 feet. This seemed to affect his heart. Through the lighthouse department here he was treated by radio prescription from Doctor R. V. Ellis, as United States marine health officer, and the treatment" was radioed each udy rom 0efe.
 Captain Dibrell then cabled Archie Shiels of the Pacific Amer ican Fisheries at Bellingham the request for assistance. The latter at once radioed Captain Knight to go to the rescue of the sick man although the Catherine D. was several hundred miles south of Scotch Cap and it meant special trip to take off the sick man.
 Scotch Cap is barren and wind-swept spot near Unimak Pass, not far from Dutch harbor. It is inaccessible except in fair weather. The arctic seas dash against the bare rocks and there is almost always a heavy surf running.
 Captain Knight made three at tempts at a landing before the sick man could finally be brought aboard. Meantime, while waiting his chances to get the smaller boat through the surf, the Cath erine D. lay to, under steam head way, not daring to anchor in those dangerous waters.
 She landed the sick man here and continued on her voyage to Bellingham, the officers accepting the risk as part of the days work, and even forgot to mention the incident as of any important news while the steamer was in port here.

LONDON, Aug. THE two larg-
est airships in the world are near
ing completion in England.
At Howden, Yorkshire, the RICO
has progressed far enough for par
liamentarians and visiting digni-
taries to make inspections and take
tea on her spacious promenade deck.
Test flights are scheduled this
month.
The R-1O1, similar type of ship,
is rapidly being completed at Car
dington, Bedfordshire.
The ships are of 100000 cubic
feet capacity. They will accommo-
date 100 passengers and a crew of
forty. Those who journey in the air
liners will have all the conveniences
of modern ocean travel. In order
that they may get a good view of
the territory over which the ships
pass, the promenadeS will be in
closed with transparent material.
Not for Atlantic
Two-berth cabins, a large lounge
and dining room, an electric kitchen,
bar, in fact everything except a
swimming pool will be provided for
air travel. The lounge will meas
ure 33x64 feet and the dining room
will accommodate fifty passengers
The lounge may be used for dancing.
Lieut.. Col. V. c. Richmond chief
of the designing department at
Cardington, has said that both ships
are planned for the Indian, South
African and Australian routes, and
not for the Atlantic crossing.
1.-THE ships could easily make the
nonstop flight Of $500 to 1000
miles across the Atlantic" he eX-
planned, but they could not carry
a sufficient paying load. They will
probably go on the Indian route
first where stopping places will be
about $500 miles apart"
Oil Instead of Gas
Lieut.. Col. Richmond outlined
some of the new features of the
R-101 as follows:
Heavy oil will be used for fuel
instead of petrol, which has been
blamed for all airship fires.
The length of the ship is only five
