WILMINGTON MAN
SEES ATOM TEST
Roy Motley Jr. Present
When Bomb Is Dropped
At Bikini

The thrilling but dangerous hon
or of watching the worlds fourth
atomic bomb burst over the Gui-
nea pig fleet at Bikini last week
was claimed by a Wilmington
sailor.
He is Roy Motley, Jr. son of Mrs.
Isabelle Motley, 2O6 Orange street.
In a letter to his mother, Phar-
macist's Mate First Glass Motley
describes the spectacle as follows:
TT was really a sight to see
We were right outside the harbor
when it happened. At first there
was an explosion, then a geyser
of water appeared. then a dark
cloud one mile in diameter appear
ed on the water and rose to TO-
600 feet in one minute. AS it reach
ed the shakespeare a brilliant ha-
10 appeared over the smoke. There
was every imaginable color in it.
1t was some event to see."
Motley, a graduate of New Han
over High school in 1871, enlist
ed in the Navy when he was II.
While serving with a group of
Marines on a tiny Pacific isle he
once administered first aid to Ed
die Rickenbacker, the famous fly
er who crashed into the sea and
survived many days afloat in a
small rubber boat.

fault Of the pitcher Take
for instance those three hit per-

Good pitching plus good hitting

Why do good hurlers like
george Brooks, Thayer Jenkins,
Nate Andrews, Buddy Holt and
the others have to always see
their names in the box scores
as the losing pitcher? Lately
the Pirate batters have suf-
fered a terrific batting slump

Yes, Gus Britain has a lot of
headaches on his mind On
paper the Pirates stack up
like a well balanced ball club
-. But they continue to lose
close games -. Anyway 80.
Britain will present the best
ball club he can muster in his
efforts to snap the Pirates out
of their slump Nate An
drews, may have been a little
off in his first appearance
here last week, but Britain is
depending on the big fellow to
win several games. If things
work out right the big right
handler will oppose his former
teammate, Van Lingle Munso,
Clinton's pride, in the Satur-
day night clash at Legion Stad-
ium. The largest crowd Of the
season is expected to come out
and see the two ex major
leaguers in action But any
way you look at it the Pirates
are a scrappy ball club.
