Dragger Fire Under Control

LOCKEPORT, N.S. (CP) Fire aboard the 100-foot fishing dragger Verna Jean docked here was brought under control Mon- day night after a four-hour struggle by town firemen to keep flames from spreading to 5,000 gallons of diesel fuel in the ves- ee!’s hold. ©

The blaze broke out about 2.30 p.m. AST “when a crewman dropped a hot light bulb on the deck while he was cleaning the craft's engine with gasoline. The | Verna Jean had just taken on a _ full supply of diesel fuel and was

' gtill tied to the wharf when the

fire erupted. ;

Police said firemen used axes and power saws to cut-away, the dragger’s deck ‘and pumped hundreds of gallons of water into the hold to prevent the fuel from igniting.

The Verna Jean, owned by Murray McKenzie of Shelburne, N.S., was cut loose from the re-

* fueling wharf here but drifted

no farther than 20 feet from the pier and the fire for a time threatened wharf buildings.

A plan to tow the vessel out of the harbor was abandoned-

“It Was believed the fuel would be pumped out before the Verna Jean was towed to Shelburne for repairs. An estimate of dam- age was not immediately avail- able.
