GRAPHIC tale OF
SUBMARINE HORROR
Man Rescued After IL Hours
Under Water Praises Mate
STORIES OF GREAT HEI G
One Man Hurled Himself Into Open
Hatch Because He Thought There
Might BE Others There-New Hav.
IN Mans Escnpe.

New York, Oct. 81 Graphic
stories of the experiences OF two men
locked 80 hours In the wrecked AM
erican submarine OF on the bottom
OF the ocean are told In a copyrighted
dispatch from Balbao to the Evening
World today.
T. Brown Of Lowell. Mass. chief cleo
tacian's mate, one of the men res
cued from the submarine which was
sunk in collision with the steamship
Abangarez Off Panama Sunday.
Henry Breault, 10. of White Plains,
N. r, a torpedo dispatcher. was the
hero of tho grim adventure. Brown
was warm in praise of the boy and
his sentiments were echoed by Of
ficers and others of the crew Of the
O-5. Breault was on the deck and
saw the looming bow Of the Aban-
garez. Instead of jumping to safety
in the sea, he hurled himself into
hatchway leading to the torpedo
room because he though there
might be others down there"
He awakened Brown and they
closed the door but not until foot of
water rushed in as the submarine
started to sink.
Breault described their experiences
in the sunken submarine until their
rescue after 10 hours. He said In
part:
Tells OF Rescue
AFTER we had been there about
three hours diver came alongside,
Breault and I separated. pounding on
the boats sides, so that the rescuers
would know there were two of us.
Rreault played q kind Of tune with
his hammer, indicating to them that
we were in good shape and cheerful.
We had no food and no water and
only the light of a flashlight, but we
were confident we could hold out for
4S hours.
1.-THE air pressure gave us violent
headaches after 20 hours. We did
very little talking or moving about:
It excited our heart action too much"
A first hoist failed, he explained.
after IL hours.
"A long time afterward," Brown
went on when we had forgotten
time and didn't want to think about
II, a second hoist started. We went
UP slowly. It seemed like eternity.
The last 20 minutes were terrible,
then we heard our comrades walking
on deck. We knew we we're at the
surface. Breault opened the hatch
and we were saved"
Charles r. Butler, chief machinist's
mate from New Haven, Conn.,, went
down with the boat but fought his
way to the surface through an open |
hatch.

2fG Arrested I'm Month
Captain George C. Kelly has COM
pleted his report for the month OF
October which shows that there were
246 arrests which is an increase of
"a over the previous month. or this
number II were for assault, 2s for
drunkenness, 13 for theft, 81 for gam
bling. rs for violating city ordinances
and 20 for violating the motor We
hiclc law. In September 22 were ar
rested for drunkenness.
Despite the heavy penalties meted
out In police court to such violators
and of the excellent work of the po-
lice department in enforcing the
liquor law, there appears to be a
number of people who still insist on
selling liquor. Chief William C. Hart
this morning said that every effort
will continue to be made to "clean
up" New Britain.
New Owners Often Found.
1t is also interesting to note that
although several raids are made by
the police department the raids are
in buildings, restaurants or stores
where there have been many convic-
tions for violating the liquor law.
Each time the police visit the place
there appears a new owner or store
keeper, who says when, he is ar
raignd before the Judge that the
place will be closed and that he is
going out of business. In many cases
though, the place has been opened

in the American League only one
contest has been postponed on ac-
count of bad weather. Rain caused
the loss Of that game at Washing
ton. In the Nationl League the
percentage of games played has
been practically as high. That is a
very remarkable record for the
spring.
The lively ball is-still doing bust
ness. Home runs are illifrequent
occurrences. Despite all this the ad-
vantage of the batter this spring is
not nearly so pronounced as it was
last year. Better pitching has brought
about such condition. The lively
ball has indirectly been the cause OF
this improved pitching, strange as
that statement may seem.
The lively bail, and the fame and
glory attained by some of the stars
who were able to hit a goodly num-
Der of circuit drives, made for an
era Of swat. Such conditions, created
desire on the part Of every batter
to hit the ball mile. 1t caused
most of the batters to take stance
at the plate that indicated they in
tended to take healthy swing at
every pitch.
The lively ball has for several
years played havoc with pitchers
who depended mainly on speed for
success. Speed was made to order
for the hard swingers with a lively
ball in use. The rude manner in
which great many pitchers with a
good fast ball were treated called
for action on the part of = the
pitchers.
The lively ball has wrought so
much destruction for several years
that the pitchers, 1t seems, decided
it was ap to them to combat the
feature by calling upon brain rathe,
than Drawn alone The result is that
more pitchers are pitching intelli-
gently this year than has been the
case for some time.
Pitchers in most cases are really
pitching instead Of merely throwing
1t became evident to the major
league twirlers that a. change OF
pace was absolutely necessary { in
order to throw the batters off thei,
stride as they set for fast one. II
| is a rarity these days to see pitcher
without. a. change of pace, when not
SO long ago the pitcher with an ef
fective change of pace was the ex
ccption.
In addition the knuckle ball in
stead of being an unusual delivery
has become rather common. 1t ha!
proved great weapon against tn.
lively bail and slugging tactics.

Thrown from Ring
In the height of the ringside eX-
element, Richie Mitchell was thrown
out of the ring by the police, who
also grabbed Billy Mitchell brother
manager of the Milwaukee boxer
There were so many fist fights in the
ring and around the rngside that
the police could not restore, order be-
fore ten minutes had elapsed.
In the first round Leonard and
Mitchell tented for at least thirty
seconds before the champion led with
left hook to the chin, Mitchell box

Mitchell remained on the dcfen-

One feature of the game that has
showed Il decided improvement this
spring is the pitching. The brand Of
twrling that has been on tap to date
is the best spring stuff | have seen
in 10 years.
Why this. improvement That is.
perhaps, rather difficult of eXplana-
ton. Possibly it has been due to
the late start, which gave the pitch
ers better chance to get in shape.
incidentally, the fact that h e
weather has been excellent since the
opening OF the season has no doubt
played its part.
A-warm spring with plenty of sun
shine in all in faor of the pitcher.
Such weather works to the advan-
tage of the pitcher, tends to i've

handicap to the pitcher. 1t reacts
decidedly in favor of the batter.
