Sea Captain Quits Ship To Be Monk
Vancouver, B.C., —(U.P.)—A hard-fisted Italian sea-captain said he plans to enter a monastery because the sea has "stolen" 12 years of his life.
Jopt. Francesco Allocca, 35-year-old skipper of the 10,000-ton Italian freighter Orsolene, said he would change his gold-braided uniform for a monk's simple habit at the end of his current voyage.
"I hate the seas," he said. "They have stolen 12 years of my life." "All my life it has been the noises of guns and the fear of unemployment and possible starvation. But soon, I'll have peace."
Capt. Allocca said it had been his boyhood ambition to be in command of a ship and to sail the seven seas, but added that it no longer meant anything to him. He said he had been through the Ethiopian war, the Spanish Civil war, and World War II and had been close to starvation in the intervening years.
Just as soon as his ship returned to Italy, he said, he would enter a monastery to "pray, study Greek and Latin, and regain the peace I've lost in the past 12 years."
He said he probably would spend much of his time as a monk collecting alms for the poor "because that will be better than being one of them."
Why Not Leave A Note
To Explain Hiding Place?
Paul, Minn.—(U.P.)—Mrs. Philip Messa left her house locked and hung the key on a nail outside the door where her husband would be sure to find it.
When the Massas returned to the house, the key was right there on the nail, where a burglar had replaced it after entering and stealing $400 in bonds and $200 in cash.
