The Nome nugget., 1951-07-13

A professor, author, and USNR captain are roles in the life of one of the pilots of the Alaska Steamship Company steamer Aleutian this season.
 He is Captain Raymond F. Far we'll, USNR Ret, professor of transportation at the University of Washington, one of the nations outstanding authorities on pilot rules, a veteran of 34 years active and reserve service with the U. s. Navy and 30 years on the Uni versity faculty.
 At least part of Captain Far wells experience was gained with the Alaska line. He started his maritime career as deck boy on the steamer Victoria in 1910 un- der the Widely-knoWn Captain Johnnie O'Brien, and so, in fact, joining the Aleutian this summer was just like returning home for him. His last tour with the com pany was a pilot on the Columbia during the 1940 season. He has also served on the Yukon and Denali.
 At the beginning of World War II, he was assigned as executive officer of the Naval ROTC at the University of Washington. He was later sent to the Walt Disney Studios to supervise the Navy training film on collision rules, and was then transferred to the U. s. Coast Guard Headquarters in Washington, D. C., where his work from 1943 to 1948 was chiefly concerned with the pre- vention of marine collisions.

Kansas Under Greatest Flood
 In States History

TOPEKA, Kas., (P - Flood waters poured over eastern and central Kansas in the greatest torrent in the states history to- day and Tapped over into parts of Missouri leaving seven dead and five to eight missing.
 At least five persons were dead in Kansas, and two in Missouri. Two more were killed by light ming at Fort Leonard Wood, Mo-, which was not affected by floods. Army engineers estimated damage from the floods totaled at least $85, 100000. It likely would go higher.
 Many of the states major cities were deep under the waters of the swollen Kansas river, includ- ing the North Topeka and Oak land sections of Topeka, the state capital.
 Hundreds of resident of North Topeka, who ignored evacuation orders were trapped by water that poured through two levee breaks and covered the area to a depth of six feet or more.

Fleet of 87 B-36 BOmbers Already May Be Obsolete

WASHINGTON, P = Some House members were reported greatly surprised yesterday at testimony that the nations fleet of giant B-36 bombers (a) num- bers only 87 and Cb) may already be obsolete.
 Legislators said Air Force of- ficials testified at closed session of the Armed Services committee that it has just 87 of the huge intercontinental bombers ready to strike atomic counterblows in event of war.
 The Air Force said it had or dered or received delivery of a total of ITO B-36s. Deliveries were halted for a time to change over from all piston type engines to a combination of four jet and six piston engines.
 Other committee members, also asking not to be named, said cur rent model atom bombs may be considerably smaller - although more powerful - than the bulky models used in World War II.
 If that is true, they speculated, smaller and less expensive planes than the $3,500,000 B-36s might be used to deliver the bombs.

LoyoIa a Tournament
Threat, Il Proves in
Beating Catholic u.

Any ideas that next weeks Ma
son Dixon Conference tournament
at Catholic University would be
o two-team affair between Amer
lean University and Mount st.
Mary's were dispelled last night
by a hard-driving Loyola team as
it defeated Gu, 1864. at Brook
land. The Greyhounds will have
q lot to say about who takes the
title.
Catholic, trailing by a 44-31
margin at the half, rallied near
the end and pulled up to 60-69,
but the smooth-working Balti-
more team always had command.
Loyola's clever ball-handling and
ability. to work the ball in close
for snowbirds beat the Cards last
night. The Greyhounds also
scored at least half dozen times
by tapping in rebounds following
missed shots. AS a whole, Coach
Lefty Reitz showed a team capable
of giving any conference opponent
q bad evening.
Although chagrined by Catho-
lies failure to make the tourna-
ment for the first time in its
history, Coach Abe Rosenfleld had
the personal satisfaction of seeing
Jim Balint, Tom Brown and
Mickey Trepp distinguish them
selves in the teams final game
of the season. Rosenfield took
the three in the rough at the
start of the campaign and last
night saw them turn in polished
performances.
Balint, with II points. was
second high scorer to Ed Doherty
of Loyola, who had 10. The Gu
center converted seven of nine
charity throws and hit for five
field goals. The lanky Brown.
along with Balint and George
Hughes, also played clever game
under the backboards, where Gu
was at a distinct disadvantage
against Loyola's taller men.
Trepp's floor play was excellent,
and when he and Balint left
the game on fouls near the end
of the contest, Gus chances of
winning evaporated.
Catholic played well against
the visitors, with Scotty Cranston.
Joe Della Rata and Hughes hit
ting on their set shots. but the
Cards didn't have the reserve
strength to keep pace with Loyola.
