8 Killed

Men Trapped By Fire Leap Into Ocean

By United Press

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7— The Navy announced today that a jet "plane exploded aboard the carrier Boxer off North Korea yesterday, killing eight men, injuring many more and seriously damaging the 27.000-ton craft. Many were overcome hy smoke, Of the injured, only two were listed as being in serious condition, Both are enlisted men. The Navy identified them as: Michael .F. Hannify whose mother lives at Miami, Fla. He was seriously burned. Ralph L. Finley, Fornfelt, Mo., compound leg fractures and multiple injuries. Names of the dead—a medical officer and seven enlisted men— and of the others injured will

be published after next-of-kin have been notified.

Sixty-Three Men Jump The Navy said 63 men trapped by flames jumped overboard, and were picked up later” by small boats and helicopters. The plane exploded in the hangar deck, starting a fire among stored planes, 12 of which were destroyed. The Navy said enemy action was not involved. It said the blast may have resulted from accumulation of gases in the plane’s tail pipe after it came in from a flight. The Boxer, a carrier of the Esgex class, was one of the first

' You Can't Wiggle Out of It—

By TED KNAP NYONE who ever heard the cry, "Take it off’ certainly knows what the burlesque circuit means by “bumps” and “grinds.” A new trade term was added yesterday during an Indiana Alcoholic Beverage Commission hearing about two scanty-panty dancers who performed at the swank Sea Village night club in Evansville, The new word i& “hunch.” It was added to the glossary of feminine wigglery by Glen Markland, ABC member who heard descriptions of the dances performed by Trudy (Pepper) Martin and a Miss Kentucky Canteloupe. In Mr. Markland's way of thinking, a “hunch” is neither bump nor grind. Rather, it's Just a series of suggestive motions and wiggles that edge beyond the line of decency. Mr. Markland isn’t sure where he got the word. But it could come from his boyhood days, when “hunching” in a game of marbles was the act of edging past the line. Judge Ted Hays, who has presided at ABC‘ hearings for 11 years and was a law enforcement officer for 30, said

“hunching"” him. “It may stick in the trade”

was a new one on

he said. “Someday, Webster may carry Glenn's new word.” Descriptions had to be confined to words and hand motions by male officers at the hearing yesterday because the state's two star witnesses failed to show. :

Pepper Martin couldn't make it because, according to her

‘Dancers Have Their ‘Hunches,’ Too

agent, she “broke her leg” recently. And Miss Canteloupe, the ABC was told, has deported from Indiana for more fertile ground. State excise officer Robert Burke testified 24-year-old Pepper started her dance with a leopard skin bra and tights. The spots “disappeared” during encores, he sald, and Pepper ended up, in full view, with only three strategically placed black ‘patches, each very small. And he sald she was “hunching.” Miss Canteloupe's performsance wasn't so apparently ripe. Excide officer Ray Hinkle said she made many wiggles. But he

“couldn't determine her degreé | of nudity because the stage was |

pitch black, and she started and finished her dance clothed in black.

John Barrett, owner of the

Sea Village, said Pepper's ex- | {lious south returning to the party .

otic East Indies dance was “art.” Miss Canteloupe’'s gyrations merely bored him, he said. Neither one was vulgar, according to Mr. Barrett. The. ABC will decide whether the dancers soiled the Sea Villag's “high and fine reputation.” If so, the club's license will be suspended.

He said the man made it back by himself and one of his buddies saved the woman. ; “I tried to bring in the boy,” he wrote, “but the undertow was so sirong and the water so rough I couldn’t get too far with him. I tired out completely and had to let him go.” The letter continues’ “I was so tired I couldn't swim. But I had to. I yelled for help but no one heard me for they were hauling the woman in. I prayed I could have strength enough to make it back and somehow I was able to make it until someone saw me and helped me out.” A graduate of Technical High| School, Sgt. Woempner worked for the Hayes Freight Lines be‘ore entering the service four years ago. He took his basic training at San Antonio, Tex.
