HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON SUNDAY. MAY 3. 1959 PAGE 4 A Battle-Scarred Vessel Becomes Inferno Of Oil VANCOUVER. B.C. AP - A battle-scarred freighter, sunk twice by the Germans in World War II and later refloated, burst into I blazing inferno of burning oil at the entrance to Vancouver harbor Krid?y The Norwegian freighter Fern gulf and her 38-man crew sur vived again, but five of her crew were lying badly burned in a hos pital. Two of them were near death. An explosion in the engine room shook the 7.500-ton Oslo ship as she steamed out of the harbor about 2:30 p.m. PST, bound (or the Fraser River port of New Westminster to pick up the re mainder of a cargo of lumber for the Atlantic seaboard. Seconds later, burning oil poured from a ruptured bunker tank that held some of the Ferngulf's 4.000 tons of fuel. Four crew members in the engine room survived the sweeping tide of oil and were rushed ashore. Capt. William Alcher ordered all hands to abandon the ship as the flood of oil burned fiercely, peel ing paint from the sides and send ing black plumes of smoke into the air over Vancouver's north ihore. - Residents In a half-mile area of West Vancouver were asked to evacuate their homes as the pos sibility of a tremendous explosion loomed. But the threat of an explosion passed, and a 17-man navy fire fighting crew, clothed in thick as bestos suits and armed with fire extinguishers, was lowered into the burning hold and engine room. It was 8 p.m. before the fire Police Give Protection To Accused Killer, Rapist ALEXANDRIA. La.

Hansen, 18, told a reporter: "I was lying down in my two hours off duty. The whole cabin exploded. I couldn't find my way out because it was filled with smoke immediately. "The first thing I tried to do was open the cabin vents to let in some air. When I finally got out I saw that most of the cabins amidships were wrecked. Capt. Alcher, wearily surveying his blackened ship early Saturday, said damage would run to at least $250,000, probably more.
