Deckman,
I have access to a newspaper archive from work.

I found a really short article about a boat named Victoria sinking with the rescue cutter named McClean. It was in Tri City Herald - 12/30/1957
Pasco, Washington Monday, December 30, 1957. The sinking seems to have been Dec. 29.

I know the dates are off, but Rossellini only became govenor in 1957 & date memories can be really bad.

Send me a PM with your e-mail address & I can send it to you. I will be away for a week, though so it won't be quick.
