Roy Bauserman Reported Missing On Ship Off Japan

Roy Bauserman of Portland, and formerly of Rainier, was reported missing at sea, by a cablegram received here Monday evening. The cablegram had first been sent to Cannon Beach as the Roy Bausermans have a cottage there, and that was evidently the address found for the missing man aboard his ship which was on its way from India to Japan when the accident happened. As the Bausermans were not there, the message hed been delivered to William Silva, of Cannon Beach, also formerly of Ranier. He called Ranier and had talked to M. K. Tolleshaug, who in return went to notify Roy Bauserman's son Earl Bauserman, here.

Mr. and Mrs. Earl Bauserman drove to Portland that night to relay the message to the rest of the family. When they got there, Mrs. Roy Bauserman, the mother, was at the Cecil Johnson home in Scapoose. Roy Bauserman, brother of Earl, and a sister, Jane, were contacted first.

Mrs. Roy Bauserman, Sr., got home about 10 p.m. to get the word of her husband's death.

The cablegram stated that he was missing October 11, and that the ship would dock at Yokahama, Japan, on October 16. The cablegram did not explain just what happened, but it is known that the region had bad storms about that time. Roy Bauserman, Jr., of Portland, had contacted officials of the shipping firm in Portland Tuesday, and they said that according to general procedure, the family could expect to hear more after the ship docks at Yokohama.

Mr. Bauserman, who was 64 years of age, was born in Ohio. He came to Ranier just after he married about 35 years ago. He lived here until 1937, when the family moved to Portland. While here he started an independent trucking business which grew large enough that he moved it to Portland. Later he sold it to Winkler of St. Helens, who in turn sold to the Johnson trucking firm now operating through this territory. Bauserman, who was an engineer, had been working on ships before. He went back to work this summer.

He is survived by his widow, Jane Bauserman of Portland; two sons, Roy of Portland and Earl of Rainier; and one daughter, Mrs. Edward (Jane) Hunsaker of Portland. A son, Owen, was lost at sea while he was in service in World War II. He was reported missing October 14, 1943.
He married Jean Reid at St. Helens, Oregon, on October 11, 1916.
