It is not everybody who can take a fan between his toes and fan himself. Not only can Emperor Hirohito perform this stunt, but he is able to do so while swimming. He can also swim in the rain holding an open umbrella in one hand." WASHINGTON. Jan. 8 Rep. Angell tR-Ore.i said today there is little chance that the hull of the historic Battleship Oregon that sped around the horn in 1898 to take a major part in sinking the Spanish fleet at Santiago, Cuba, could ever be returned to his state. At the outbreak of the second World War the battleship, then a patriotic shrine at Portland, where Oregon maintained it as a museum, was sold for scrap. She was com pletely dismantled and the hull towed to Guam, where the navy planned to use it In blocking har bors used by Japanese tf that be came necessary. Tlie hull was not used for 'that purpose and is now rusting away near the island. "I have urged the navy ever since it took the Oregon for scrap to return it to Portland," Angell said. "I have been told it would cost more to recondition the old battleship than to build a new one and that the proposal to bring the hull to Portland is not practicable. "I am sorry that is the condition, for the old ship was a patriotic shrine visited by thousands of school children every, year. The state of Oregon spent more than $100,000 in fixing the berthing place for the battleship and it was the headquarters for all patriotic events." The Oregon made her dash around the horn when the Spanish fleet was bottled up in Santiago harbor. She made the 14.000-mile trip at an average speed of 11.6 knots per hour and reached San tiago on July 1. The Spanish fleet attempted to escape from the harbor two days later and the Oregon went into action. She forced the Spanish Battleship Maria Theresa, one of the most powerful in the world at that time, onto the rocky shore and forced the Almtrantr Oquludo to run onto the beach. She then sent shot from one of her ihlrtcen pounders into the stem of the Colon, bringing about its surrender. The navy planned to use the old ship for a target after the first World War but protests caused U to turn the vessel over to Oregon on July 3, 1935, the anniversary of the battle of Santiago.
