tendent. Bollman, who has been serving
as city recorder and municipal
judge at Springfield since April

ed he wanted to give Springfield

Sutherlin has had considerable
difficulty obtaining a man cap
able of filling the position of city
superintendent, after funds were
budgeted last spring. However,
after the city's plight had been
considerably publicized in news
paper stories, 16 candidates ap
peared before the Council or sent
letters of application. Among these
was Bollman, who attended a
Sutherlin Council meeting two
weeks ago. The position pays
$5,000 a year.
Sutherlin City Councilman Mar

ition on a temporary basis.
Bollman is married and has two

Atlantic
Gallant Ship
Loses Battle
Of 2 Weeks
Heroic Copt. Carlton,
Mat Dancy Rescued
After Leap Into Sea
LONDON I The gallant
American freighter- Flying Enter
prise sank In the stormy Atlantic
Thursday after a mighty two weeks
duel with the sea.
Heroic Capt. Kurt Carlsen and
First Mate Kenneth Dancy of the
tow tug Turmoil were snatched
from the churning waters to safety.
Carlsen and Dancy leaped over
board when it became evident the
6.711-ton freighter was going down
under the crashing waves
The stand-by rescue fleet closed
In. The tug Turmoil threw over a
rope ladder, and the two men
climbed to safety. They were In the
water only about four minutes.
Sta Tradition Obeyed
Carlsen refused to give up until
the stricken freighter obviously
was heaving her last. He had bat
tled since the Christmas Day hur
ricane to save hia ship. His soli
tary duel with the Atlantic began
Dec. 28 after he ordered all hands
to abandon the snip, which carried
a crew of 40 and 10 passengers.
Dancy joined him last Saturday.
The big freighter thrashed about
in its final agonv for 40 minutes
and then disappeared. Aboard the
British salvage tug Turmoil, Carl
sen and Dancy, bearded and ex
hausted, climbed into dry clothing
as the tug turned hurriedly in the
direction of Falmouth, about 40
miles away.
Valuablo Cargo Lost
The two men leaped overboard,
even as the Enterprise- gave - a
heave to nort and iTan slnwlv
to keel over on her side. Part of
her cargo worth more than a mil
lion dollars was strewn about the
surface of the churning water in
profusion. Soon other parts of the
Enterprise began to crack, and
more cargo was pitched out into
th sea.
It was i gallant death. The
rescue fleet saluted it. In the last
few minutes the tugs sounded their
sirens. Only the bow of the Enter
prise was visible.
At 4:09 p m. flares on the surface
of the water near the ship were
lighted, castin? a weird lisht over
the area as the Enterprise took
her final lunge. One minute later
the Enterprise was below the sea.

Wednesday and admitted, agents
said, registering 40 times for the

government check issued to Mrs.
Joe Willie Riley.
Mrs. Riley, a Gold Star mother,
was classified 1-A by a draft board
recently and ordered for induc

Adrift At Sea
SEATTLE ( Planes and ships
joined Thursday in a desperate
search of the stormy North Pa
cific for 45 men who took to the
lifeboats late Wednesday from the
crippled, leaking freighter Penn
sylvania. Planes started scanning the area
about 465 miles northwest of the
northern tip of Vancouver Island.
Mountainous waves and a tem
perature of around 35 degrees
brought grave fears for the sea
menif they made it safely into
the lifeboats under hazardous con
ditions.
PORTLAND OB The red haired
wife of the Pennsylvania's captain
waited anxiously Thursday for
word of the rescue of her husband
and the crew of the stricken ship.
"He's always come back safely,
through the war and all, but it's
certainly hard waiting and not
knowing," said Mrs. George P.
Plover while waiting beside her
radio.
Waiting with her were the cou
ple's two sons, Patrick, 14 and
Timothy, 10.
Plover was skipper of merchant
marine ships in the Atlantic and
survived one previous shipwreck.
That was at the mouth of the
Columbia River in 1930, when the
Admiral Benson ran onto Peacock

the ship.

But when he was asked if he

country would prosper under any

Mr. Truman stressed at his news

In Polio Drive
Despite confinement to an Iron
lung, 12-year-old Judy Bellows,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harold
C. Bellows, 840 Military St., Rose
burg has taken an active part in the
Marcn of uimes.
Judy was stricken with polio
last year and was rushed to the
Sacred Heart Hospital in Eugene
where she was placed in an iron
lung.
Recently she made an appeal for
March of Dimes funds through
Eugene schools by writing a letter
which was distributed among the
students. The letters were to be
taken home for signatures of moth
ers who are participating in the
Mother's March.
The March, being tried for the
first time in Eugene, is an attempt
to induce mothers tn solicit every
house on their block with porch
lights burning.
Judy was to have recorded the
letter for radio broadcasting, but
breathing difficulty made the tran
scription impossible. However, she
was able to record a shorter broad
cast. In the letter, Judy voices the hope
that every porch light in Eugene
will be burning the night of Jan. 31.
Sirens will blow as a signal to
begin the march.
Judy says in her letter:
"Judy Bellows is my name. I
am in the Sacred Heart Hospital.
Although I can't run and play now,
I am hoping to because of the
help that 'all mothers in Eugene
will be giving on Thursday night,
Jan. 31, for one great hour."

(B) would accept a "clear call"
from the GOP to be its Presidential
nominee, but (C) will not engage
in pre-convention activities and will
not ask to be relieved of his pres

Forced Repatriation
Of Prisoners Seen Aim
Of 'Choice' Objection
1 By OLIN CLEMENTS
MUNSAN, Korea ( Allied ne
gotiators Thursday accused the
Communists of scheming to
strengthen their forces in Korea
by "forced repatriation" of prison
ers of war.
Rear Adm. R. E. Libby said
the Reds are "scared to death'
of giving war prisoners freedom
oi cnoice as to whether they want
to be repatriated.
He told the Redi that by op
posing this principle in the Allied
plan they "denounce individual
freedom and advocate slavery."
The U. N. again rejected the
Red compromise truce supervision
plan because it failed to ban con
struction and repair of military
air fields.

the seventh month subcommittees
on truce supervision and prisoner
exchange appeared tightly dead

"Your opposition to our proposal
is based solely on your aim of
improving your military manpow
er situation during an armistice,"
Libby told the Reds. "Only that
which benefits your side militarily
do you consider true and righteous.
"Having augmented your forces
throughout the war by 'freedom of
choice' you now seek to continue

North Korean Maj. Gen. Leo

but he made it plain he would not
hesitiate to run against Eisenhower
despite his admiration for the gen
eral, if he thought that was the
thing to do.
Once, Mr. Truman remarked
almost wistfully it seemed that he
had always hoped that Eisenhower
was a Democrat.
He said he had been told that
when Eisenhower was 18 he had
worked faithfully for a Democratic
candidate for governor of Kansas.
It was not until Eisenhower said
he would permit his backers to
continue working to land the GOP
nomination for him, Mr. Truman
said, that he completely made up
his mind that Eisenhower was a
Republican.
As lo question on when he will
announce whether he will run again
Mr. Truman said It will be before
the Republican convention in July.
