The superstitious make a
point of stunning anything that
bodies i'll whenever Friday the
18th rolls around. If you are
one inclined to be superstitious,
you will avoid walking under
ladders, crossing the path Of
black cat or drinking toast in

yourself.
This is the third Friday the

Among the survivors was the cap
tain of the Dutch ship. He said
the first torpedo struck at 6:15 pm
and the second, two minutes later
The ship sank within a half-hour
and the skipper said he was not
certain whether all the men got off
The submarine circled the five
lifeboats and her commander bade
the victims "Aur Weidersehn" be-
fore moving the U-boat away.
Victory Haggith of Wembley, Eng

gunner in the British merchant ma
rine and that he ran away from

cause he got bit fed up with stay
ing ashore"

said he lust joined up"
Both boys shipped for their almost

included. We could have made port
but the submarine came up and
started shelling"
The crew scrambled into lifeboats
and as they pulled away they saw
the submarine still shelling their
vessel They were five days in the
boat. The sea was rough. 1t rained
and one day they had to heave to
and put out sea anchor. Their
rations were four biscuits. two inches
of water in a cup and two bits OF
chocolate.
A Netherlands merchant ship res
cued them, and Frank said they were
given clothes, coffee and tea. They
fed us well and gave us bed"
Victor took up the story:
THE next night I was in a cabin
listening to the gramaphone and
reading a book when I heard
crashes and felt the ship lurch. I
nearly went through the ceiling and
thought here we go again I ran
out. the book still in my hand
grabbed a lifebelt and got off in
the nearest boat"
Frank was in the same boat and
the boys told how the submarine
captain, quite a nice bloke he was,
asked if they had enough cigarette:
and then tossed them several pack
ages.
They were made of hay, think,
maybe that's why he gave them to
u.s." Victor explained.
The boys said the submarine crew
took pictures of the sinking ship as
the lifeboats pulled away. They
were three days in the boat before
they were rescued and the weather
was more kind than after the first
