Falmouth, England, Jan. 8—
Captain Kurt Carlsen of the Fly-
ing Enterprise is headed for a wild
outburst of hero worship in the
British Isles. And if he wants to
rash in on his burst of glory, he
ran pick up a fortune.
The Cornish seaport of Falmouth
is crawling with agents—agents
for radio chains, for magazines
and newspapers, hook publishers
nd movie companies. Each agent
is there to press bundles of bank-
notes on Carlsen for his story of
his lone, courageous stand against
the sea.
A British newspaper is standing
by with a starting bid of $3,500
