DORCHESTER, N. J., Nov.
29.-It Is a pleasure TO report
that old-time pride Of crafts
manship has not vanished from
the earth.
It's still in evidence at the
Snowman Shipbuilding Corp.
on the banks of the Maurice
River here. Snowman now is
the yard where c. E. Alderman
builds the 42-foot Newporter,
an offshore sailing auxiliary,
well known on the West Coast
but just beginning to make an
impression in the East.
The keel has just been laid
for the 9th Newporter. and a

Practically everything in the
craft is Eliminated Douglas fir
or white oak. The keel, for in
stance, is made with many
Examinations Of fir, apron built
and bolted to 6,100 pounds Of
lead by B-inch bronze bolts.
The hull is made Of four
single planks. Each side Is
planked with q single plank,
40-feet long, of 94-inch water
PROCEED plywood. The bottom
also has only two giant planks,
one to port and one to star

With this reinforcing and re-
duction Of seams to q mini

Hiles tells proudly Of the New
porter that went on the rocks
off the coast of Mexico and
was pounded by a storm for
three days before she was ia
ken off.
"She needed some repairs to
her cabin and superstructure,

but her hull was as good as
ever. She never broke up" he
related.
Perhaps the best known of
the Newporters Is the Black
Swan. which was owned by
Tyrone Power. Power took her
to Spain and was living aboard
her when he collapsed and died
on the set while filming Solo
mon and Sheba In Madrid.
Mrs. Power sold the Black
Swan to Walter Whisker, a
Londoner, who kept her for a
couple Of years. She later was
sailed back to the United
States for another owner and
under another name.
Her present owner Is Fred
Nettere Of SyoSsett, N. j.,
American Broadcasting Co.'S
Eastern regional sales director.
The Black Swan now Is tied

the Snowman yard.

porters and bought them when

The best rockfishing at the

eentrated in the lower Chesa-

firemen who fish together
regularly had q fabulous trip

average for the catch was

Those aboard the Stella

Berry says the fish really
haven't schooled up yet. They
are moving in small schools
that cover q 10-mile area, but
when conditions are right
thousands Of gulls win be
working over the various
schools.
All Of the fish were taken
on medium-size bucktails. On
this particular day they pre-
ferred yellow lures with yellow
pork rind, although they took
white fairly readily. The fish
are found in about 80 feet Of

He turned out his first New
porter In 1851 and intended to
keep it for himself. But he was
talked into selling it for
Sl4,500. Then he built another
and was prevailed upon to part
with 1t also. Before he knew it
he was deep in the boat busi-
ness.
He turned out 70 Newporters
on the West Coast before he
was prevailed on to come East
and set up shop as president Of

He dreamed Of an auxiliary

wanted one that could be ham
died by a single person If nee
essary.
It occurred to him that the
sport of sailing was fighting to
remain a mans game and that
sailing craft we're kept rugged
and uncomfortable deliberately.
Some sailors we're considered
soft If they had an auxiliary
engine or even q toilet aboard.
One had to descend q ladder
backwards to get into the dark,
stuffy interior Of the cabin be-
low in most sailing craft. Such
a Spartan atmosphere, condu-
Give to seaSickneSs, was distase-
full to women, so the ranks Of

But Alderman also noticed
that women were beginning to
take a larger part in sailing
despite the obstacles. and he
reasoned that If they were to
continue to participate it was
going to be necessary to cater
to their tastes.

wife and another couple through
