Sub SINKS AS
IT NEARSPORl'
Death Ship Again at
Bottom After Strik-
ing Rock Reef

NEW YORK. y. Y. July 7.-tPl--
The United States submarine S-5l
went aground today between the
Williamsburg bridge and the Queens
boro bridge. in the East river while
being towed to the navy yard here.
Officers said a missing buoy and
the misguidance Of the civilian pilot.
were the cause of the grounding
One Of the civilian pilots was on the
Falcon. which was building by steel
cables, connected with the stern of
the S-5l. Another civilian pilot was
aboard either the luka or Sycamore
which were lashed together and tow
ing the submarine.
The submarine was listing to star
board as she was towed. but when
she struck the rock she was seen 70
roll still farther over. All that re-
mained in view after the collision
was the coming tower on which 2
flag was flying at half mast. and
the torn wreckage Of her bridge
smashed in her fatal collision with
the City Of Rome.
The S-5l had just passed through
what were believed to be her major
perils of the journey here. possible
sinking again in the deep waters OF
the Sound and loss in the swirling
waters OF He'll Gate. All seemed ia
be i'm order for a speedy and safe
arrival when the undersea boat sud
denly piled up on Periy reef rock
between the two bridges.
The most dangerous part Of the l5O
mile trip TO the navy yard from the
place where the submarine was raised
after nine months submersion fol
lowing its collision last September
with the steamer City of Rome. was
considered by navy officers to be the
area near Execution rock. This had
been safely passed.
Probable delay in releasing the
submarine from the rock was seen
from the fact that II occurred M
high tide. As the tide ebbs Officers
pointed out the water will drop
more than feet and II may be
necessary to wait for the next high
tide to float the submersible.
Crowds on both shores, which has
been cheering the flotilla's prog
ress witnessed the accident and were
augmented by thousands rs soon NJ
word spread that there had been
trouble.
All the way from He'll Gate. the
funeral convoy was greeted by the
sirens of harbor craft, ali sI which
were flying their flags at half mast
in honor Of the sailor dead
