Violent Coastal Storm Disrupts Oregon and Washington
A fierce storm battered the Pacific coast causing toppled trees and blocked vessels including the Alaskan Queen towing the 100 foot dredge Mon arch near the Columbia River mouth. Gusts reached 140 knots at Naselle radar station, equivalent to about 161 mph, as the Coast Guard reported the dredge’s superstructure damaged. Meanwhile a robbery in Apple Valley saw two gunmen steal between 5000 and 6000 dollars from the Home Savings Co. manager Spencer C. Hamilton phoned deputies after awaiting gunmen’s instruction. Oregon faced hurricane-strength winds and power outages as highways flooded. In unrelated items, the Air Force signaled a near-term rocket test toward the moon, and a northern New York town conducted a late-night vote with Miss Jackson Osborn as first voter. Comedienne Martha Raye and her former bodyguard filed for a marriage license in Teaneck.
