Sailing Slop's Odyssey
Told by Returned Seaman
SEATHXrVPh 21 year-old seaman, returned from ; a
nightmarish African voyage aboard a famed but leaky windjam
mer, fined in the mysterious missing chapters of the schooner
Commodore s Odyssey,
The dramatic narrative of
James Gallagher of Seattle relat
ed how the crew ate boiled chick
en feed for mush on the-MJ-day
voyage, they manned pumps by
hand week after week without ever
sighting another vessel, the crew
locked up the captain after an Ill
ness apparently drove him out of
bis head, and won acquittal in Af
rica on mutiny charges placed by
the-skipper. -s-i'T-?.
; The Commodore was one of the
four-masters that won fame by
Honolulu to Puget Sound races
long after steam had driven most
of the windjammers from the sea
lanes. The proud old sailing, ves
sel set out from Puget Sound 16
months ago, to be swallowed by the
Pacific on a trip to Durban, South
Africa. Months later meager dis
patches told of the crew being
accused of mutiny on the high
seas. Still later it was learned
that the" Commodore ' had been
sold. That was alL
"We had no fresh meat or food,"
Gallagher related in a Post-Intelligencer
interview. "We ate salt
pork, salt beef and. salt fish. Tor
breakfast we had ' boiled scratch
feed... We got some chickens at one
island, and we had a can of peas
or com ; between ; 14 men every
day, but that was about alL :
"She began leaking a couple of
weeks before we rounded Cape
Horn and after that we stood up to
the hips in water in her hold and
pumped by hand, day and night.
"The captain got sick at about
the same timeT We didn't know
what was the matter then, but
later, " when he died In Durban,
the doctor said he had a brain
tumor. 7- -;
, "The captain was a good sea
man,, but he went out of his head.
"He ordered us to drop anchor
in a thousands fathoms of water,
began wearing . his oilskins ' in
bright sunlight and ordered the
boat over to pick, up a woman he
said had . fallen . overboard. The
mate asked us to vote what we
should do. We voted to lock him up
and try to take him to the Falk
land islands. 1 ' -
"It took five of us to put him in
his room. We got within five miles
of the Falklands, but the wind
changed and we couldn't make it
We kept him, in "his cabin for a
month? r. 'V r -r
'i The crew let hmv ouf when he
seemed to be getting better, Gal
lagher said, but the. ship's chron
ometer promptly disappeared and
he let the windjammer get broad
side Into a storm.
"It took us 48 hours to ride out
the storm, the seaman continued.
"Half our sails carried a way. When
we got to Durban, he accused us
of mutiny. A board of American
naval officers cleared us." f
The crew members drew a few
hundred dollars of pay in the port,
Gallagher said, but that was all.
"Finally the ship ' quit feeding
us," he said. "The captain died.
We had no money. We filed suit
for our pay. They: owed us $3100.
The ship was sold at auction for
$65,000,
"I stayed there from May until
February trying to get Toy money,
but the court case wasn't finished
yet. So I skipped out, finally, and
came home."
The Bazooka-New Anti-Tank Gun
described mechanically by either
the war depatment or Major. Gen.
L. H. Campbell, jr, the Ordnance
chief, nor did either disclose the
type of projectiles it fires. V
" The new weapon ' was - -described
by Major Qeneral L. IL
Campbell, jr., the ordance chief,
as a "rocket gun." Departing from
the text of a prepared radio ad
dress, he said the rocket, is "built
on the Fourth of, July principle."
A soldier inserts the rocket in the
