THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1950 According to A. C. Shaffer, in charge of Cepe Blanco light house, Xelly Ja radioed its posi tion as off St. George reef, but the coast guard tug. Yacona, of Eureka, could not locate the craft after trying several hours. When the Kelly J described its surroundings it was discovered that it was directly off Cape Blanco, close to the rocks, hav ing drifted there during the stormy night. Later when the Yacona reached it, fuel was tak en on as it was felt that it could navigate under its own power. Pilot "Pictures" Create Interest In Hews Illustrations In recent issues of the Pilot, amply supplied with pictures to illustrate news stories, interest has run exceedingly high, and all available copies of the issues have been sold out completely— despite the fact that more cop ies have been printed each time. Especially attracting interest with the story of D. M. “Bull hide” Moore, pioneer merchant of Gold Beach, who rounded out a long merchantile career last May. Interest in the recent Pa rade of Quartets was given im petus by the publication of all available pictures of the par ticipants. The Pilot seeks pictures of all events possible, which would be of great value to illustrate the articles. These pictures may not always be published in the week of happening. Pictures must be glossy prints, of plenty of contrast, for lack of this attribute w’ould result in a poor newspaper picture. Fishing Craft Lost 4n Recent Storm BROOKINGS-HAR BOR PILOT.

LOCAL । I PORT ORFORD—During t h e recent stormy week-end a dis-! tress call was received at the J coast guard station from Kelly J, 45-foot fishing boat, out of fuel and lost at sea. Arthur Hin- derlie, officer in charge, said this station could not answer the call because Nelly’s Cove was full of heavy drift and packed with sea-; weed from the storm, making it i impossible to launch the lifeboat.
