Lose Car in
Alaska Flood
and did lose their car, in a flash-
fhod near the Alaskan border in
the Yukon territory early mast
week, friends here have learned.
Sketchy details ]earned from the
Walt Austin family indicate that
Mr. and Mrs. Austin and their
two youngest sons, LeRoy and
Lonnie, lost everything but the
clothes they wore when the Alcan
highway near Koidern, Y.T.,
washed out from under them
suddenly, submerging their car
and trailer in more than 15 feet of
water.
The car was a total loss, accord-
ing to the reports, but the house-
trailer can be salvaged and re-
paired. The Austins were on their
way to Anchorage to visit another
son, Danny, and traveling with
mariner Mayor and Mrs. Earl
Moo re.
The Moores reportedly were
about a half-hour ahead of the
Austins and had passed the danger
area which caught the Austins.
The area apparently m near the
convergence of three rivers, al-
though details are not clear exact-
ly what caused the trouble.
The two Shelton families left
Shelton June 9 for a four-week
vacation trip to Alaska via the
Alcan highway.
Austin is a money order clerk
in the Shelton post office and
Mrs. Austin is a rural relief
carrier.

Bridger said the ferry was being
repaired and it was hoped it would
be back in service Saturday.
In the meantime, the county has
arranged for limited foot service
to and from the island.
The ferry was put out of com-
mission about 1]:73 a..n. Monday
when a sawmill, owned by Ernest
LeGracie, was being taken off the
ferry with a winch on the Island
side. A cable broke and let the
sawmill roll back down onto the
ferry. It hit the deckhouse, dam-
aging the controls.
Neither the hull nor the engine
was damaged, Bridger said.
George Waite, who was operat-
ing the ferry got out of the way
in time to escape injury.
The foot traffic r:'rvice is being
provided dn the ",m.e schedule as
the regular ferry service, during
the day, Bridger said. Emergency
boat service at night is available
by calling the sheriff's office.
A tug boat moved the ferry back

lManders' cars across on the side
on which they wanted them while
the ferry is out of service.

The Commission agreed there
wasn't much they COuld do about
the protest as the LID petition
had been signed by more than
enough property owners so the
commission had no choice under
the law but to approve.
A delegation from the Golden
Age Club appeared at the meeting
to ask the commission to put in
shuffle board courts in Kneeland
Park.
THEY TOLD the commission a
slab of concrete at least four inch-
es thick, 60 feet long and six feet
wide would be needed for each
court.
Mayor Frank Travis asked the
group to get specifications for the
courts and present them to the
next commission meeting so the
commission could get some idea
of about what the cost would be.
The club indicated if the city
would put in the court, they would
be willing to provide the playing
equipment.

Death of Senator Frallcis Case
(R-S.D.) late last week in Wash-
ington, D. C., brought sorrow and
grateful,remembranees of his van
uable services in Mason County.
Sen. Case is credited by many
who were connected with it in-
timately as the nmn responsible
for getting the sustained yield law
on the road during its formative
days during World War II.
As a key committee member,
Sen. Case ]s credited with getting
the sustained yield bill approved
by the committee and onto the
fleer for its ultimate passage into
law.
From it followed the 100-year co-
operative logging contract between
the Simpson Timber Company and
the U. S. Forest Service which as-
sured the company of a permanent

Shelton area residents will have
a "safe and sane" Fourth of July
as far as fireworks are concerned
whether they want it or not.
Both county ordinances and a
state law which went into effect
Jan. 1 forbid the sale, possession,
storing or transportation of any
other than a few items reich as
sparklers and cap pistols with a
limited amount of powdel" in the
caps.
THE LAW is effective in both
the Skokomish and Squaxin Island
Indian Reservations in Mason
County, although it does not af-
fect some Indian Reservations in
the state.
The two county reservations are
among those which have asked for
state jurisdict{on, and, therefore
come under all county and state
laws except those pertaining to
hunting and fishing.
Under the new state law, Sheriff
William Potter said, the county no
longer issues permits to shoot fire-
works over the water as they have
in the past.
An organization wanting to give
a fireworks display can get per-
mission to do so by getting per-
nlission from county officials and
from the state fire marshal's .of-
rice. Such displays must be han-
dled by two qualified pyrotechni-
clans.
