DEPENDS ON NEEDS
Buying First Boat
Confusing Business
BY CHARLES COVELL
Outdoor Editor

No wonder the newcomer to boating gets con-
fused Should the new boat be an inboard or out
board or combination of both? Should it be carvel-
panked Srip-panked or lapStrake? How about fiber
glas, aluminium or plywood? The array is almost
endless.
It's not like buying car. An automobile has a

body of pressed steel, a certain
number of pistonS in a steel
block, tires of rubber and that's
about it. Only problem is to
choose the size and make, for
eign or domestic.
Reason for this is a letter
from a Silver Spring couple.
1t reads:
MY husband and I are plan
ming to move to Fort Lauder
dale, Fla, within the next year
and we are both anxious to own
a boat down there. We really
know nothing about the han
ding of boats and don't even
know what type we should buy,
except that we do want some
thing that would permit our
living on the boat over a week
end occasionally, and we like
our comfort; i.e., enclosed head,
reasonable galley and bunk &C
commodationS for four.
Has $4,000 Limit
II have an idea that a 81
foot to 24-foot boat would an
swer our needs and also stay
within our pocketbook. eve
would hope to get something
around $4,000
From the little we have
read in boating magazines, it
seems there is much to be said,
pro and con, about Fiberglas,
lapstrake. etc. types, but we are
utterly confused. Do you, by
any chance, have available
literature that would be help
full to US in weighing the ad-
vantages and disadvantages of
the various types of boatS-or
could. you recommend reading
matter for us to get7
First off. there are several
fine publications that list most
of the 1860 boats as we'll as
accessories and should be very
helpful. Around boat show time
both The Rudder and Popular
Boating put out special issues.
Back copies probably could
be obtained from The Rudder

81, and Popular Boating at One
Park Avenue. New York IS.
Yachting Magazine at 205
East 42d Street, New York II,
comes out a little later with a
boat owners guide that also is
good.
Wants Bunks for Four
Our reader narrowS the
choice sharply when she says
the boat should have an in
closed head, galley and hunks
for four. You can't get a boat
that will sleep four with COM
fort under about "a feet.
That rules out virtually all
outboardS as well as the smaller
inboards. Many of the larger
outboards have inclosed heads
and reasonable galleys, but the
largest size that trails easily is
about % feet, and what's an
outboard if it can't be trailed?
They have berths for two and
the other two would have to
spread sleeping bags in the
cockpit. Don't think this hasn't
been done.)
Therefore the boat to be con-
sidered would be an inboard in
the "a or 25-foot class, but how
about price? Four-sleepers in
those sizes list for about $4,000

of the season there may be sale.

Need Extra Equipment
In addition, as with any boat,
be aware of the extra equip
ment you must have by law or
will want.
Most cruisers come equipped
with running lights. uphol-
stored berths, ice box, alcohol

Gov. Egan Votes
For President For
The First Time

JUNEAU, R-Gov. William A.
Egan 46 years old Is days ago,
cast his first ballot ever for Presi-
dent of the United States today.
Egan, born in Valdez on Oct. 8,
1914, marked an absentee ballot
in his Capitol Building office
along with his wife, Neva, a
native of Kansas.
Egan's ballot was credited to
the precinct where he was born.
The Governor, a Democrat and
staunch supporter of Sen. John
Kennedy for the presidency, de-
clined to let newsmen get even a
peek at his ballot after he had
marked it.
81 know that on Tuesday, Nov.
8, thousands of Alaskans will ex-
perience that same sense of plea
sure and satisfaction which was
mine as l marked my choices of
candidates on the ballot" the
states chief executive said.
Actually voting for President
and Vice President of the United
States, was, to me, final proof
that we Alaskans are indeed full
citizens of great sovereign state
of our American union.
81 thought of the obligations
and benefits we in Alaska re-
ceived with statehood, and
thought, during those moments of
the old saying, what is worth
wanting is worth waiting for
Cali Alaskans who go to the
polls this year will not only be
realizing fully and completely
their rightful political heritage,
but will experience an additional
appreciation of the democratic
process which has caused Ameri-
cas- greatness.
The first lady's vote for Presi-
dent was the second time she had
voted for that office in her life
time.
Her first presidential vote was
cast on an absentee Kansas ballot
while she was teaching school in
Glenrock, Wyo., in 1886.

New Ship May
Be Named Nome

Secretary of the Navy William
B. FRANKIE today informed the
office of Rep. Ralph Rivers that
Nome has been added to the list
of city names to be considered
when additional ships are author
lied to be constructed which are
appropriately named for cities.
The announcement followed a
request by Congressman Rivers
that the Navy so honor the City
of Nome because of the recent
historic journey of the USS Sea-
dragon through the Northwest
Passage, with Nome as the first
port of call at the conclusion of
the voyage.
Mr.. Rivers contacted the Navy
Department at the request of
Pearse Walsh, president of the
N. w. Alaska Chamber of Com
merce, who had suggested that
the next nuclear powered sub
marine be named the USS Nome
in honor of the city that served
as the port of call of the Sea-
dragons historic voyage.
However, Secretary FRANKIE, in
his letter to Rep. Rivers stated
that submarines have traditional
ly been named for fish and other
creatures of the oceans, although
exceptions have been made re-

Gold Drops to
5000 an Ounce
On London Market

LONDON, R-The dollar price
of gold dropped to $36.40 per fine
ounce by the close of transatlan-
tic dealing on the London bullion
market today.
The day of relatively low traf-
fic seemed to signal at least
temporary end to the frenzied
speculative activity that gripped
the worlds gold markets this
week, reaching its climax in yes
terday's feverish trading.
Dealers on the London bullion
market fixed the days opening
price at $36.40 a fine ounce. This
compared with the top price OF
$4,000 reached during feverish
dealings yesterday.
The big drop on the London
exchange presumably resulted
from an official U. S. treasury
statement that Washington has no
intention of increasing this price.
To do so would, in effect, devalue
the dollar
The treasury statement came
too late to cool off the hectic gold
market yesterday afternoon.
The treasury statement also had
its effect this morning on the Lon
don stock exchange, where boom
ing gold mine shares were sharp
ly marked down by brokers.
This in turn unsettled other
sections of the market, and minus
signs were scattered freely thru
the list during the forepart of the
trading session.

Debate Again Tonight

NEW YORK, R-Vice Presi-
dent Richard Nixon and Sen. John
Kennedy meet tonight in their
fourth television and radio de-
bate. The program will be the
same length as the others-one
hour.
Representatives of both presi-
dental candidates finally agreed
yesterday to limit tonight's de-
bate to one hour. There had been
talk Of making the program two
hours, with the final so minutes
devoted to answering questions
by viewers by telephone.
The issue of an extended pro-
gram grew out of a proposal by
Kennedy to hold fifth debate as
close as possible to the Nov. 8
election.
Nixon turned Kennedy's pro-
posal down and suggested instead
that the fourth debate be extend
ed to two hours.
However, last night Herbert G..
Klein, Nixon's press secretary,
said "the door is slightly OPEN
to fifth debate. But other Nixon
aides have said it would be diff
cult to revise campaign tour plans
for the closing weeks and work
in another debate.
The debate will be heard here
in a rebroadcast at $3.50 over radio
station KICY.
