the F-14 which sank after Z colli-

steel cable to the hull.
The work Of attaching the air pipe
and cable was accomplished with

The crew Of the ship was known
to be still alive today and they were
maintaining communication with the
rescuers by means Of q submarine
telephone.
The position Of the Fla was def
inite!y determined today and the
navel vessel Quila was Anchored
nearby. Admiral Foschini went
aboard the Quila and took charge Of
the rescue work.
Inspection by divers who went
down this morning showed that the
submarine had been struck by the
destroyer near the stern.
The rescuers were racing arainst

submarine since it was feared that
her watertight compartments might
give way any moment. The Fla

Although communication between

may have been killed by the first

from flooding the entire submarine

BROWNS DARING
FLOODED HEART
Otto Schelle, "a, Caught in
Swift Current of Swollen
River

Otto Schelle, "a, was drowned in
the Heart river 18 miles south Of
Glen Ullin Monday.
His body had not been found at

dragging the river for traces Of the
missing man.
Cloudbursts in the vicinity of Glen
Ullin and Hebron had raised the
level Of the river more than 10 feet.

midsummer, the Heart river was
transformed into q raging torrent.
Schelle, with his brothers and
sisters, was watching the swirling
waters near the home of their par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. John Schelle. He
declared his intention Of swimming
to the opposite bank.
Plunging into the rushing river,
Schelle reached q point half way
across when a swift current seized
his body and whirled him down
stream while he vainly battled to
reach the more peaceful eddies
along the shore. He had disap-
peared before his brothers and
sisters awoke 20 his peril.
Farmers along the stream have
been asked to watch for the body
and q watcl.- IAN has been posted at
the municipal dam in Mandan to
prevent the body being carried past
that point and into the Missouri
river, Z few miles below the dam.
About Is losses from hail were
reported from the Glen Ullin district
while other hail damage was caused
in the territory south Of Hebron.
Water is standing in the fields in
many places from the torrential
rains that fell Sunday evening.
