This was the exclamation made by Charles P. "Chuck McParland of Illinois, a marine at the Logan naval training station, as he was rescued late . Sunday afternoon from a pit at Summit valley, about 30 miles up Logan canyon. McParland had been skiing in the "Sinks" area, winter playground for Cache valley folk. During a descent from the montain, his skis went out of control, and he crashed through an area staked off with red flags, went into a deep pit which is characteristic of the mountainous section. Down, down he went, alighting on a seven-foblanket of snow at the pits bottom. It was cold and dark. Members of the Mt. Logan ski patrol were two hours effecting the rescue. They borrowed rope from every place which had rope, even using 50 feet of flagpole equipment. it all, McParland Through emerged without a scatch. That is why he was thankful for his church going habits. Everett Thorpe, president of Mt. Logan Ski club and one of the ski patrolmen assisting in the rescue, stated that the deep pit has a fence surrounding it, built by the forestry service. Bat deep snow had covered the fence. Even then, the area had been marked off by red flags, but they didn't stop the marine. Other patrol leaders at the site were Stan Chipman and Loyal Seeholzer. Chief John W. Bagwell, recreation officer at the naval training station, also helped with the rescue. 150-fo- ot ot Passes Away When the ship one is on sinks three minutes after being torpedoed by an enemy submarine, events happen in a hurry.

Such experiences marked the existence of Hubert Burrell, son of Mr. and Mrs. Bert Buirell of North Logan, who is spending a furlough with his folks following nearly five months continuous service as a naval gunner aboard a cargo vessel plying the south Pacific waters. The young man joined the navy last June 30, and sailed into the Pacific during October on the S. S. Samuel Gompers. His journies took him all through the south Pacific to Australia, New Zealand and New Caledonia. One day out of New Caledonia an enemy sub fired three torpedoes at the cargo ship at 4 o'clock in the morning just as the ships watch was being changed. One torpedo missed, the other two struck their mark. Nearly broken in two by the explosion, the vessel sank within three minutes of the blow. The crew of 61 men scrambled to launch the lifeboats, and two of the auxiliary boats were overturjicd in getting them down. Some of the men were in the water five hours. Four lost their lives. "One lifeboat sailed all the way into New Caledonia", the young man observed. "The other two were picked up. The last one was out five days." Seaman Burrell graduated from South Cache high school in 1940, and two years later joined the navy. He must return to duty March 14, and has applied for a transfer to aviation.
