TIE Ancona was considerably dam

First officer Myhre Of the Georg-
Stage attributes the accident to the
Ancona changing her course. He said
the Ancona's bow showed seven feet
into the training schooner's, side,
bringing down the latter's masts and
rigging, and preventing many OF the
cadets from gaining the deck. Those
VINO were not entangled in the wreck

assisted In launching the life boats.
Myhre himself jumped into the water
and escu,d many boys who were en-
tangled In the rigging.
The Georg Stage was q schooner of

long. Apparently she was q training
vessel for the mercantile marine and
