and finally caused her to submerge,
but only momentarily. She soon re-
appeared and resumed firing. The
survivors owe their lives to the poor
craftsmanship Of the German gun
ners. The attack was made without
warning.
The firing was heard for miles on
the mainland and attracted thou
sands to the beach, who could plain
" see the flashes Of the guns and
the outlines Of the submarine. That
they were in danger did not ocur to
the spectators until shell whizzed
over their heads and buried itself in
the sand. Three more were fired at
intervals, but did no damage. The
boats were about three miles off the
coast. The passengers and crews
lost all their personal effects, and
some, who were having their turn in
the hunks, had to come ashore in
their night clothing. They were
taken to the Coast Guard Station, ex-
cept the wounded, who were con-
veyed to private hospitals.

Disaster

The Emergency Fleet, baseball
team journeyed to Pascagoula to
play the shipbuilders of that city
Saturday morning. Games were
played Saturday and Sunday and ad-
vanced reports received here this
morning indicate strongly that they
had considerable bad luck. The first
game was lost s to 3 and the second
by a score of 4 to I.
The Pascagoula shipbuilders were
here about month ago for two
games. They broke even on that
series, though the visitors unmerci-
fully mauled the locals during the
second fracas. The members of the
team are expected back on No. z this
