Dragging
DriUerS Cause
accidents
By Martha johnson
Dodge Safety Consultant

Do you have to show off the
power of your new car? Do you
have to demonstrate your skill in
making time through traffic?
The National Safety Council
warns that this kind of "YOU"
causes accidents.
You may be an experienced
driver, but if you have the COM
petitive urge to pass cars even
when you're not in a hurry
then you're asking for trouble.
If you have to beat everyone
away from the light, and insist
ON keeping the other fellow in
his lane-yOu are in danger of
becoming traffic statistic.
The over-confident driver
causes many accidents. He gets a
sudden feeling of power when he
takes the wheel. This power
complex leads him to take
chances. And, when you take
chances, you frequently don't
win.
Try to remember that the
other driver pays highway taxes
too. It's his road as much as it's
yours.
The other driver has just as
much right to the road as you
have. Don't try to compete with
just try to live with him.
Give him part of your share
of the road, and be safe.
The coastland times., 1959-06-26


At about half past three, just as
the life-saving crews were about
to fire again in the hope of plac-
ing the line within his reach, to
haul him ashore by, the main-mast
broke off and he was thrown into
the surf. He exhibited rare cool
ness and presence of mind, and
made a gallant and successful
struggle; for quickly disengaging
himself from the wreckage he
clambered to the rail which was
out of the water, and thence by
degrees reaching the rigging of
the foremast, which still remained
intact. This movement was watch
ed by the surfmen with intense
interest, and as soon as he was
again ensconced in the rigging
the sixth and last shot was fired.
At this junction the man lost
his hold and was swept out of
sight, apparently under the wreck.
His disappearance was momentary,
however, for to the great relief of
those on shore, he quickly reap
.peared on the surface amidst the
fragments of timbers and plank
ing, and catching at the first piece
within reach flung his arms and
legs around it with the grip of
death or despair.
By great good luck the piece of
timber to which he clung was cast
shoreward by the sea, and willing
hands grasped him as soon as he
was within reach. When drawn
ashore he was insensible. He was
at once taken to place of shelter
and by proper manipulation and
the administration of the usual
remedies was soon brought to con-
sciousness.
Darkness had now overtaken
them, and as soon as the men were
able to travel the rescuers wended
their way to their respective sta
tions, the wrecked crew reaching
Little Kinnakeet, with the men of
that station about half-past eight.
Here, after changing their wet
garments and partaking of warm
food, all hands except those whose
turn it was to patrol the beach,
sought relief in the much needed
rest after the excitement and ex-
posure of such an eventful day.
The crew of the McColly remained
at the station several days until
they were able to leave for their
homes, their unfortunate craft
having been a complete wreck. The
crew of Little Kinnakeet, thus had
eight shipwrecked sailors on their
hands, those of the Charles remain
ing until their vessel was floated
off. 1t should be mentioned that
one of the surfmen of Little Kin
nakeet had a narrow escape while
wading into the surf to the assist
ance of one of the sailors. He was
knocked almost senseless by
piece of lumber, and it was only
with considerable difficulty that
he was rescued by his comrades.
The action of the crews of these
two stations, Little and Big Kinna-
keet on this occasion was certainly
very creditable, and to their per-
severance under adverse circum-
stances, coupled with the gallan-
try in wading out into the surf at
the peril of their lives, is due the
saving of all those on board the

.KIllNEKEET CREW MEN
PRAISED AT SHlPWRECK
OF SCHOONER McCOLLY

BY the time the crew of the
schooner Charles were safely
ashore, another schooner in dis
tress, which the life-saving crew
had seen coming down the coast
astern of the Charles had also
stranded about a quarter of a
mile south of the station. She
struck the bar at about noon. The
life-saving crew (Little Kinnakeet
Sixth District) hurried toward her
as quickly as the bad condition of
the beach would permit, the water
in some places being almost knee
deep at the foot of the beach hills,
well above ordinary high water
mark. To add to the difficulties Of
travel the wind blew a furious
gale in their teeth.
AS afterwards learned, the
schooner was the W. H. McColly of
New York, Ill tons measurement
bound from Broad Creek, Neuse
River, North Carolina, for Phila-
adelphia, with a cargo Of pine lum-
ber. Her crew numbered five, all
told. Like the Charles, she had en-
countered the first outburst of the
gale of the previous night, when
far to the northward, and by
morning had lost most of her sails,
part of her deck-load, and was
leaking badly. In this condition
she was run ashore, having scud-
ded before the gale until it became
no longer safe to do so; her cap
tain from his knowledge of the
coast and of the existence of life
saving stations, realizing that it
was the only chance he and his
men had for their lives.
The schooner brought up on the
outer bar, about two hundred yards
from the beach. She lay astern to
the sea, which at once commenced
breaking over her with such ir-
resistable volume that the crew
were compelled to take to the rig
ging for safety, the captain as
cending while the rest went up
forward. By the time the life-sav-
ing crew arrived, the sea and cur
rent had cut the vessels stern
around off-shore. The wreck-gun
was soon placed in position and
fired, the shot lodging the line
across the end of the jib-boom.
Watching their opportunity be-
tween the seas the men in the
forerigging quickly descended and
went out on the boom and secured
the shot line, and by that means,
after considerable difficulty, owing
to the action of the current upon
the lines, succeeded in getting hold
of the whip, the tail-block of which
they made fast to the flying-jib
stay. The hawser was then sent
off, also made fast above the block.
At this moment the crew of the
Big Kinnakeet Station arrived
upon the scene, and with their as
sistance, the hawser was quickly
tautened, and everything arranged
in working order for the bringing
of the people ashore. While the
life-saving crews were hauling in
the breeches-buoy, however, an
accident occurred which, as events
proved, nearly resulted fatally.
The schooner had during this
time, gradually swung around un-
til her head pointed to the north
ward, thus bringing the jib, which
remained set, flat at back. This
had the effect of canting her bow
offshore and throwing her stern
towards the beach, fouling the
lines. The strain was too much fol
the hawser, and it stretched and
surged, for after the men on the
beach had Stacked as much of il

Bartlett Assails Veto of Alaska Oil Lease Bill

WASHINGTON, R R-President Eisenhower's veto of a bill to in- crease the acreage in Alaska that could be held under oil and gas leases was assailed today as ''in- tended to be a snow job on the snow country"
 It was, Sen. Bartlett told the Senate, an example of "picayune niggling" and of "tilting at wind mills"
 With support from Sen. Gruen- ing, Bartletts in a lengthy speech, took sharp issue with Eisen- hower's argument in vetoing the bill Aug. IT.
 Under existing law, a single party may hold under oil and gas lease a maximum of 100000 acres in Alaska, and may hold 100000 under option. The vetoed bill would have eliminated the dis tinction between leases and op- tions and permitted a single party to hold 60O,OOO acres under oil and gas leases.
 The President said the bill would tend to "produce an ex- cessive concentration of control over such potential resources"
 Gruening congratulated Bart lett for making the speech and added that q have never seen a veto pasted on such trifling, trivial grounds" He said he thought poli- tics was involved.
 Gruening told the Senate the Interior Department looks on AL aska as it's lief. Beyond perad- venture," he said, ''the party in terested in Alaska's growth is the Democratic party"

NEW DELHI, India, R-Prime Minister Nehru said today that Chinese Communist troops have crossed from Tibet into Indian territory on two widely separated frontiers and apparently ar staying.
 In India's northeast frontier area, Nehru told Parliament, sev- eral hundred Chinese apparently seized an Indian border post this week after driving off 12-man picket detachment. Nehru said four border guards are missing.
 Nehru said the Chinese also had established a camp in re- mote, uninhabited border sector of the Ladakh area of Kashmir, more than 1000 miles west of the crossings on the northeast iron tier. The Chinese also are re- ported building a road across the area, cutting off several hundred SdOcllC Ol 4I1N1CI1 COA 4IO1
 Nehru said the Chinese moved into the Ladakh region in October 1857. The Indian reconnaissance party was sent into the region at the end of last month.
 There was no indication in Nehru's statement why he waited so long before acting.
 He said India had protested to Peiping but so far had no satis- faction.
 There is no alternative but to guard our borders and integrity" he declared ''We will have to be vigilant.'' .''
 Nehru made no announcement, however, of military counter action.

Eisenhower Calls on Queen Elizabeth
By EDDY GILMORE

BALMORAL, Scotland, LR - President Eisenhower broke into his diplomatic mission to western Europe today with social visit to Britain's royal family at Bal moral Castle. Queen Elizabeth II made a completely unexpected appearance to the gates to vel come him.
 "Well, well, I'm delighted to see you,"' said the Queen, slim and elegant though she is ex- pecting her third child early next year.
 Eisenhower bowed and said: Thank you ma'am. It's wonder ful to be here"
 It was a friendly and informal beginning for Eisenhower's over night visit.
 Surprisingly, the Queen not only came out to see Eisenhower but did it on television.
 The President had driven 50 miles with Prince Philip in car from the airport to cheers of crowds along the way.
 The Queen-Who danced until the early hours this morning at a castle ball for her servants-pre- sented the President to Princess Margaret.
 The Queen wore a powder blue suit with shirt jacket. Her skirt snuggly hugged her hips.
 The Queen-Whose baby is ex- pected in late January or Febru- certainly showed no physi- cal signs of it.
 Eisenhower flies back to Lon don Saturday, then drives to Chequers, the country home of Prime Minister Harold MacMi1- Ian, for weekend of talks about the Presidents approaching ex- change of visits with Soviet Pre- mier Nikita Khrushchev.
