14th British Warship
Damaged in 8 Months
BY the Associated Press

LONDON. Jan. 27.-The Ad-
miralty said today minor ma
licious damage" has been dis
covered on the aircraft carrier
Ocean-the 14th such incident
abroad a British warship in the
last eight months.
1T appears to be another case
of hooliganism-part of a petty
crime wave" an informed naval
source told a reporter. There
is no indication of any organ
lied sabotage, Communist or 9TH
erwise."
AS in many of the past cases,
a glass gauge in the engine room
was smashed. Admiralty police
opened an investigation and an
enlisted sailor of the Oceans
1.076-man crew was detained.
Damage to the 13,190-ton light
carrier, a decorated veteran of
the Korean war now being re-
fitted at a Davenport dockyard,
was not serious enough to affect
the ships movement. But the
frequency of these cases Of dam
age is plainly worrying the Ad-
miralty.
