Investigators sought evidence to
support theories that the explosion
was caused by a bomb, and more
specifically. a time bomb calculated
to sink 5000 ton craft in deep water.
Divers who examined the hole in

of the hull were bent inward, in
dieating that the explosion occurred
with terrific force just outside the
ship.

steaming along the narrow Oak

Warren expected that the vessel

1T would be very foolish to guess
what actually happened until they
give an opinion Warren said.
How a bomb could have been

a matter of speculation.
