The incident began when the Bluejacket was scurrying along the edge of the deck performing his job as an aircraft handler. Suddenly noticing a Skyraider bearing down on him, he made a dive for the catwalk. "Then my troubles started," he said later. Misjudging his leap, he hurtled over the net and plunged 65 feet into the waves.

I A "man overboard" drill had been scheduled for about the time Nelson made his dive.

So when "Man overboard! Man overboard!" boomed from the loudspeakers, a dummy was thrown over the side. Efficiently too efficiently for Nelson the helicopter plucked the dummy from the water and returned it deftly aboard. LOOKS AGAIN' The frantic persistence of the few who had seen Nelson plummet into the water finally sent the helicopter back for another look. This time the pilot spotted Nelson and hauled him to safety in a sling.

Pacific Frontier Broadcasting Co. which operates radio station KULA has filed with the Federal Communications Commission for channel 2. The Associated Press reported. FOR CHANNEL 11 Radio Honolulu, says it will file today for channel 11. It said the July 1 deadline on filing means midnight tonight rather than midnight last night as some people had thought.

Previously filed were applications by the Advertiser Publishing Co. (KGU) for channel 4 and Royaltel of Honolulu (a new firm backed by Royal Amusement Co. interests) for channel 2. Thus there will be competition between Royaltel and KULA for channel 2. A KULA spokesman, George B.

Morgan, business manager, said today his firm filed for the same channel as Royaltel "because channel 2 and channel 4 are the choice channels in the Islands. They have a better chance of going over into the valleys than any Mr. Morgan said KULA also will press for use of a Tantalus transmitter site recently leased to Mutual Telephone Co. at an auction where KULA was disqualified from WANTS SITE SHARED He said KULA thinks the site should be shared by Mutual with all TV stations and wall press for this solution.

B. Fisher, of Mesa, Ariz. City Attorney Believes Fong May Have to Pay The City-County Attorney's office indicated today that it thinks Auditor Leonard K.

Federal Firearms Act Extended To Alaska One of three changes in the National Firearms Act and related provisions of the Internal Revenue code extends provisions of the law to Hawaii and Alaska.

The act and related provisions apply to short barreled shotguns or rifles, and to machfne guns but not pistols or revolvers. The law is apparently a control measure aimed at the type of weapons used by lawless elements in large cities. The announcement has been made by J. M. AIsup, collector of Internal Revenue.

Public Law 253 was approved by Congress on May 21. It imposes a tax on the making of a firearm (by other than a manufacturer); provides a continuing requirement for the registration of firearms; it extends the provisions of the Firearms Act t'o Alaska and Hawaii. The new law provides that "every person having in the continental U. Alaska or Hawaii a firearm or have acquired one since July 26, 1934. must register such firearm on Form 1 in duplicate." This is to be dnnp with fni.

lector of Internal Revenue of the district in which such person resides.

Excluded under the act, and therefore unaffected by the Federal registration rule, are: 1 Pistols and revolvers.

2 Rifles of .22 caliber or smaller, with barrels 16 inches or more in length. Registration of firearms in the Islands begins today. Forms may De oDtamea at the office of the Collector of Internal Rev ennp Permits for the purchase of small arms, including pistols and revolvers, may be obtained at the Police Records Bureau, the Police Depart ment says.
