Hundreds of Coast Guard men
and employes of the oil company
fought the billowing blaze for three
hours before bringing it under con
trol. There were no IniurieH nl.
though the flames leaped hundreds
of feet into the air, raced along
docks and piling and spilled over
ine waters of Puget Sound with
amazing rapidity.
The fire started shortlv befnrA .
midnight Friday niHht when thn
Standard tanker, J. L. Hannah hit
ine 1,000-foot pier as it came in
with 130,000 barrels of oil and -
other products aboard.
The crash severed 10 feed linn
which extended from the stnram
tanks ashore to the Dier end. Hinh.
ly inflammable liquids spewed out
on the ship's side and sparks set
off by the grating of metal on met
al set them aflame. .
Within seconds the entire end
of the structure was sheathed in
flames while the Hannah backed
away and into the stream. It did
not catch fire and suffered only
minor damage in the collision. -
For two and a half hours crow
ing crews of firefighters noured
Foamite and water on the south
section of the dock and it was be
lieved the north 500 feet were safe. '
firefighters said the blaze was un-
der control and only smoke and 1
sparks rolled from the dock with
a few flickering flames visible in
spots.
Then, suddenly, fuel pipes on the
north section caught fire with a
tremendous whoosh and the flames
were away again, racing the re
maining 500 feet in a matter of
seconds, driving firemen and of
ficials from the "legs" of the pi-
snapca structure.
Explosions from 50-eallon con- -
