NORTH ANDOVER. Mass, July 12-IR-William A. Mazarinko and his large, trown bull aren't speak ing today-not after what hap pened this morning.

 The bull plainly didn't like red fire engines-he just planted him self in narrow roadway and challenged the firemen to come on. They didn't.
 Doubling as picaoors, the fire fighters armed themselves with pitchforks and drove the bull into field The bull got loose and came back. The fire was getting worse. The firemen finally penned the bull in nearby pasture.
 By that time the big, wooden barn was beyond saving.

STRIKE ON
 COOK INLET
 IS FIN DED
Fishermen $ Union Accepts Price and Wage Offer
 Made by Industry

ANCHORAGE, July 12.-LR- A 14-day strike of CIO fishermen and cannery workers, which reduc- ed Cook Inlet cannery outfut to a trickle, ended yesterday with the unions acceptance of new price and wage offer by the Alaska Salmon Industry, Inc.
 The largest increase for fisher men will be in the price paid for red and silver salmon. Those taken in lower Cook Inlet will bring 70 cents apiece, those in the upper in- let 66 cents.
 John Wiese, president of the CIO Westward Alaska Fisheries Council, said:
 This is cents better than the 1948 prices and cents more than the industry offered before the strike"
 Raises Granted
 Under the agreement, the price of king salmon will remain un- changed.
 Pinks taken by gillnets on the upper inlet will be worth 18 cents, or Az cents more than last year. Seine caught pinks will bring 2l cents, rise of 51s cents.
 Chums, whether caught with gill; nets or by seining, will net 26 cents, up 3l2 cents.
 Beach gillnetters employed by companies will get three-fourths of the new quoted prices, while handtrap fishermen will be paid 75 per cent of the scale for the upper inlet.
 Alfred Owen, business agent for the AFL United Fishermen of Cook Inlet, said the new prices automati- cally will be paid to members of his union.
 Wage Raise
 CIO cannery workers accepted the across -the-boards wage raise of ' cents an hour offered by the Salmon Industry before the strike, but the agreement settled two oth- CT major points at issue.
 A proportionate increase in sea- sonal guarantees was granted, along with the stipulation that res- ident cannery workers will have their guarantees applied in full to the remaining five weeks of the season.
 Wage scales for cannery work CTS now will start at $1.52 an hour, or $229.50 where they are em- ployed by the month. Subsistence and travel pay also is provided.
 While some canneries along the inlet operated on reduced scale during the strike, most of the ln- dustry was tied up as tendermen respected the picket lines of the fishermen and cannery employees.

 The plane belonged to Trans National Airlines and was repre- sented locally by Standard Al, Lines. It was one of the cut rate transcontinental flights, which carry passengers for $113 instead of the customary $181.
 Passenger Fight
 Pilot Roy White informed the Traffic Control Bureau at Bur- bank that fight among passeng- CTS had broken out near River side, Calif. He said he wanted rolice aid as soon as the plane landed, and he requested permission to set down at Burbank instead of the customary destination, Long Beach. One passenger was badly beaten, said White.
 Survivors said the fight started after male passenger became hysterical while the big airliner was coming through a storm. An- other passenger appeared to have quieted him when a chance remark on the Cause ofA the -hysteria pre- cipitated a slueging match.
 Warning Sounded
 While the fight was going on, one of the stewardesses warned: "Fasten your safety belts; we are going into cloud bank"
 Eighteen persons. still alive, but badly mangled. were taken from the wreckage. The arm and lea of one woman fell off after she had been placed on a stretcher.
 The plane apparently scraped the side of a 20O-foot hill in a box canyon with a wingtip and then pancaked and caught fire.

WASHINGTON While the Atomic Energy Commission is in- forming Congress of streamlined methods for bigger and better atom bombs, Army doctors have been working quietly to prevent loss oi life from those same bombs-and with surprising success.
 It can now be stated that, as a result of this research, Army doctors have lost their fear of the bombs casualties, and that at least 20 per cent of the lives lost at Hiroshima could now be sav- ed.
 This is the conclusion of Col Ebert de Coursey, Commandant o1 the Army's Medical Research School, whose principal assignment has been to prepare medical defen- ses against the atomic bomb.
 He explains that 65 to 85 per cent of the victims at Hiroshima and Nagasaki died of burns and injuries. easily treated by medical science. The challenge to the medi- cal profession therefore is to aban- don the present method of treating
