Search continued today for trace of

steamer Norman, which went down
in fifty feet Of water in the Mis-
sissippi River Friday with loss Of
twenty-three lives.
Divers made several attempts to
roach the wreck, but failed.
A huge anchor was brought into

dead were believed trapped inside
the cabins. Meanwhile a fleet OF
Government boats are watching river
banks in belief the bodies may have
drifted down stream.
One generally accepted theory for
the disaster was that the oil could
have sloshed about in the Norman s
almost empty tanks in such a way
as to cause 1t to capsize.
