FINE

LONG
TRIP.
New
Year's
babies
customarily
get
a
big
play,
which
is
proper
enough,
but
this
year
Prince
Rupert
will
welcome
a
New
Year
boat.
At
least
it
will
be
almost
a
New
Year
boat
for,
although
it
will
not
be
launched
on
New
Year's
Day,
it
will
drop
into
the
water
on
an
extreme
high
tide
shortly
after.
The
boat
is
a
46-foot
troller

veteran

troller
took
up
residence
in
Prince
Ru-
Fridav
to
unload
frozen
fish,
say
pert
this
year
after
many
years
of
fishing
out
of
Namu.
This
fine
boat
and
we
really
mean
fine
will
replace
Mr.
Armsted's
former
boat,
Red
fern
II,
which
he
sold
this
fall
In
Vancouver.
With
a
length
of
46
feet,
the
new
vessel
has
a
beam
of
11
feet
six
inches
and
a
draft
of
six
feet.
She
has
a
fir
keel,
two
by
three-inch
oak
ribs,
fir
beams
and
cedar
planking.
Her
decking
is
of
fir.
Sleek
and
un-painted,
except
for
a
coating
of
pitch
below
the
waterline,
the
new
boat
is
standing
on
the
ways
while
workmen
caulk
the
deck.
The
new
vessel
will
be
powered
with
a
60
h.p.
Caterpillar
diesel
engine
and,
with
her
sleek
lines,
ought
to
be
one
of
the
fastest
boats
in
the
local
trolling
fleet,
as
well
as
one
of
the
largest.
Mr.
Wick,
who
is
justifiably
proud
of
the
job
he
is
completing,
plans
to
build
a
new
37-foot
troller
for
himself
when
the
present
job
'
Is
completed.
Primarily
a
fisherman
he
spends
his
summers
trolling,
returning
to
his

shop
in

months.

constructs.

that
they
wouldn't
know
much
about
It.
Speed,
they
say.
hasn't
meant
much
to
them
lately.
From
the
good-natured
griping
of
a
number
of
the
150-odd
American
servicemen
aboard
it
was
gathered
that
they
had
been
afloat
so
long
that
they
had
almost
ceased
to
wonder
if
they
ever
would
get
ashore-permanently.
The
Toloa,
they
said,
had
embarked
150
servicemen
and
200
civilian
workers
at
Adak,
far
out
on
the
Aleutian
chain
on
November
30.
By
December
21
they
had
got
as
far
as
Prince
Rupert.
"Adak
is
sho'
a
lo-o-ns
way
from
Bu'mln'ham,"
said
one
serviceman
and,
from
his
extended
drawl
and
chocolate
skin,
it
was
evident
that
he
did
not
mean
Birmingham,
England.
He
was
a
member
of
a
colored
combat
Infantry
regiment
and
had
been
Shteen
months
at
Adak.
Another
sen-iceman
from
Ida
ho
had
been
a
ground
crew
member
of
the
Army
Air
Force
of
which
there
were
several
aboard.
He
had
served
as
a
wireless
operator
between
aircraft
and
landing
field
and
hoped
eagerly
to
be
at
home
for
Christmas.
"Most
of
the
men
have
re-enlisted
in
the
regulararmy
and
have
been
given
Christmas
leave.
It
looks
as
if
some
of
the
boys
from
the
east
won't
make
it
home
by
Christmas."
he
said.
A
large
part
of
the
trip
was
made
up
of
cargo
stops
at
Dutch
Harbor,
Whittier,
Juneau
and
Ketchikan.
The
Toloa
was
scheduled
to
sail
from
here
at
6
o'clock
last
night
and
to
arrive
in
Seattle
sometime
Monday.
