Bush Pilot Hss
First Mishop

Gentry Shuster, said by many
to be the best bush pilot in
Alaska, had his first mishap
late yesterday in Resurrection
Canyon.
Coming in from Hank Pal
lagos cabin on Cooper Lake
with Frank DeLoughery and
a moose, both engines in the
Widgeon failed and he was
forced to set the plane down in
the tree tops.
Neither man was injured and
the plane was only slightly
damaged, although at the first
survey it seems impossible to
salvage the plane because of its
remote position.
"The engines went out, one
very soon after the other" Mr..
DeLoughery said. Sinister turn
ed to me with a little smile and
said, Well, we have to find a
place to land I was pretty
scared but Gentry seemed SO
calm about it, although he was
concentrating on watching the
ground, that / soon felt better,
too. He set that plane down in
some low trees SO quietly and
easily that there was no more
of a jar than the stopping OF
an elevator"
The two men set out imme-
diately after the accident to
walk to town, hoping to make
the II miles before a passing
flyer could spot the downed
plane and send word to town,
causing worry to their wives.

TWO BABY MOOSE ARE
SHIPPED TO

Two baby moose, male and fe-
male, which were raised on a
bottle at Cooper Landing by
Mrs. Frank Towle, have been
shipped to Cordova by the Fish
and Wildlife Service. There are
no moose in that area and it is
hoped that by planting them
there a few seasons will build
up a herd.
The youngest calf, named
Kenai, is still on the bottle,
which was sent along with her
in the crate. Skipper, her future
mate, is a big fellow already
Weaned.

Bud Brown Injured As -Four
Men, Three Planes Crack up

Bud Brown of the Alaska Shop
suffered a broken arm in a mis-
hap that damaged three planes,
stranding five local hunters in
the Skilak area this week.
The story is somewhat in
volved, but as we got it, it be-
gins with Gentry Shuster and
DR.. j. H. Shelton grubbing out
a landing strip on an unnamed
lake in the Skilak area, which
is considered good moose coun-
try.
Shelton and Oliver Amend
later flew in to the place in the
doctors plane for a few days
hunting and got a moose, but in
the take-off with the meat the
plane hit an obstruction, damag-
ing the landing gear and pro-
peller.
They somehow got back into
town %(probably by hitch-hiking
another plane) and picked up
two other planes and help with
parts to repair the damaged ship
and bring out the moose. Everitt
Skinner and Bud Brown in
Browns new Piper PAGER and
DR.. Shelton with Fred Delaney
in a borrowed plane flew back to
the area. The first plane was
repaired and Skinner brought it
back to town with the under
standing that the other two were
to follow.
Although they did not arrive
for two days Skinner apparent
ly thought nothing of it, as the
men might have decided to do
more hunting. On Wednesday,
however, William Renfrew, an
Anchorage attorney, flying over
the area on his way to Seward,
saw one plane on its back, an
other apparently damaged and
a man with a bandaged arm.
Vern Trakowski, Alaska Seen
ic Air Service, Immediately took
off but could not land his Sea-
bee in the small place. He
dropped a message to the men
then contacted the 10th Rescue
Squadron at Anchorage. A hell
copter was sent in, which re-
moved the men to Skilak Lake
where they were picked up by
Renfrew and Trakowski and
brought in to Seward. Brown
spent the night in the hospital
but had received no serious IN
iuries other than a broken arm.
The two small planes had piled
up attempting a take-off in the
cramped area. Brown is consld-
cred an expert pilot and DR..
Shelton has been flying a couple
of years, but the secluded lake
does not offer adequate landing
and take-off space.
The other two men concerned
were Casey Cobban and Frank
Lewis. who were hunting on
Harvey Lake and waiting for
Brown to bring them in with
their kill. Only a small float
plane can get in to them, and as
there are practically none left
in Seward, arrangements are be-
ing made to send in after them.
It is known that they have their
moose, so will not starve while
waiting.

Appearing in the abbreviated
garb similar to a pair of basket
ball pants and a light Short
sleeve rayon shirt, the Stars
drew raised eyebrows and a gen.
erous share of ribbing from
their rivals. the Portland
Beavers. But the Stars won,
5-3, with 4 runs in the first
inning.
Haney said that as far as he
knew. it was the first major
change in baseball uniforms in
Ill years of the game.
This is no publicity stunt"
Haney, an old-time big Lacquer,
said emphatically. 1--WE are do

the players as we'll as give them

He said all of the players after
trying them out were enthusi-
astic. All expect ribbing from
opponents, however.
Haney said he showed the
uniforms to Branch Hickey,
president of the Dodgers. dur
ing a recent visit to the Brook
lyn camp in Florida. Hickey,
he said, voted approval of the
costume and said he would
equip some of his farm clubs,
particularly in the torrid South,
with the uniforms.
When the Stars trotted out
onto the field, some fans gasped,
some peered, some cheered and
the rival Portland club subjected
the movie town team to un
bridled ribbing.

Just before the game, Man.

and raced to home plate to
greet the scanty-panted Haney.
Sweeney was wearing a far

braced Haney, himself a gag

At the same time, it was pro-
posed to give the tournament
players representation at future
PGA meetings. Schneiter was
present, but only because he was
called on the carpet.
Houghton predicts an early
end to the revolt. He claims
that Jimmy Thomson and
Toney Penna already have been
told by their sporting goods
firms to quit the rebel group.
There has been dissension be-
tween the club pros and tourna-
ment pros for Is years." Hough-
ton said, "but for the good of
the organization the matter
should be brought to a head
and the touring pros should
learn who's boss"
Would Be UnwelcOme.
Houghton cited an example
of what the rebel group would
encounter if it makes its threat
stick. Just suppose we had
decided to continue the $4,000
Evening Star Open at my club
this year" he said. do you
think that I, as a member of
the PGA, would work for
months to promote a tourna-
ment at my course for a group
of pros who were trying to cut
my throat? OF course not.
And that's what they'll run into
everywhere. There are very
few PGA members who would
permit the new group to play
on their courses"
According to Tom Crane, an
attorney who is the paid execu-
tive secretary of the PGA, the
touring pros seek authority to
handle the entire mechanics of
tournament golf. controlling the
funds and negotiating and sign
ing their own agreements"
Crane added, apparently they
don't like the way the PGA
operates"
Lew Worsham, who claimed
Washington as a home when he
won the National Open in 1947,
and George Fazio. the new
Woodmont professional, were
not included in the governing
body of the rebels, although
the entire list was not made
public. But Houghton is con-
f1dent that neither will join
the Schneiter- Hogan Middlecoff
faction.
Lew was brought up as a club
pro and he certainly thinks
more of his job. at Oakmont
tnear Pittsburgh than he does
playing tournament golf with an
outlaw group" Houghton said.
PGA Sponsors Watching.
The Middle Atlantic presi-
dent said that if Fazio should
be a member, he will get the
coolest reception of his career
when he reports to Woodmont.
He wouldn't be permitted to
attend our meetings. play in
our tournaments nor have our
friendship" Houghton said. but
added-'T don't think George is
the type to play with the dis
senters.'
