 The bodies were taken to the un- dertaking rooms of Beaman and Sons here. Identification was con- sidered unlikely.
 One of the men, however, wore a belt with the letter "C" engraved on the buckle. This indicated that he was either Daniel Grove or J. Copy of New Bedford. since they were the only men Of the crew of 19 of the Pinths whose last name began with that letter.
 Among the divers who descended to the wreck was Bill Michaelson, one of the heroes of the S-51 sal vase work. Considerable secrecy surrounded yesterdays diving operations. It was believed, how ever, that the bodies recovered were the only ones that could be reached without extreme danger to the divers.
 Fifteen of the Pinthis crew still are missing.
