How many perished is not known.
Figures were seen on the bottom of

they had cut their way out.
A heavy sea was pounding the
wreck and lifesavers refused to at
tempt a rescue until it Gained. They
said no boat could be launched and
refused to let volunteers take their
boat.
The lifesavers are camped on the
beach tonight watching for a chance
to reach the wreck.
