British Sub DiUer
(By Associated Press. J

London, Aug. 22.-British Wire
less Service .)-Recently a British
and a German submarine met. The
enemy had crossed the North Sea,
penetrated British waters and was
lurking to pounce upon any ship
that might cross its track. The
British boat was returning to Base
after an arduous cruise.
Both boats were on the surface,
but the British boat picked up the
enemy and dived before she herself
was sighted. She fired two torpedoes
and through her periscope the re-
sulting explosion was observed.
Coming TO the surface five minutes
later the British crew found one sur
vivor swimming among the wreck
age. He was the captain of the
German. The other officers and the
crew had all gone down in their
boat.
