Thrilling Story of TraWIer Skip
per'S Exploit.
Third Blow Of FIaiIIike Implement
Puts Out U-Boat's Eye and Al
lied Crew Escapes.

London.-When ones vessel Is in
danger from enemy submarines any
thing will do as a weapon of defense,
as Is shown by the story of captain
Of British trawler who used coal
shovel with good effect against Ger
man-U-boat. The trawler, according
to the story told by one of the crew,
was in the North sea In a stiff breeze
when the skipper saw a periscope
crawl through the breaking surface of
the sea about a hundred yards off.
There was no gun aboard and the traw-
ler's best speed was less than eight
knots.
ut was a situation to dismay most
men," said the seaman. "Our skipper,
however has n fighting spirit. A touch
of the wheel sent the trawler's blunt
bows pointing at the submarines
whaleback, and we wallowed menac-
ingly toward the pirate.
"The U-boat swung round to avoid
the impact and the sides Of the traw-
Ter scraped along the sides of the sub
marine. The periscope still was well
out of the water but was beginning to
slip down as the submarine dived.
"The skipper bawled for hammer
crowbar, anything that would hurt
One of the crew thrust coal shovel
into his hand and he scrambled on the
bulwarks and leaned over, two of the
crew hanging on TO his coat so that he
wouldn't fall overheard. Backward
and forward he swung the heavy SCOOP
at the fragile periscope, and the third
blow reduced it to fragments.
