Tugboat Lost,
9 on Board

NEW YORK, Dec, 81 (APl.
= "A tugboat with nine men
aboard was presumed lost to-
day in wild and frigid waters Of
Long Island Sound.
The Coast Guard said the
100-foot vessel, the Gwendolyn
Steers, apparently went down
in the vicinity of Target Rock
and Eaton's, Neck Point, about
40 miles east of New York City.
A lifeboat from the vessel
washed ashore with one body
in it. The victim, not immedi-
ately identified, apparently had
died of exposure. There was
no indication of survivors.
Storm Raging
The tug disappeared, after
radioing late yesterday that she
was taking on water. A storm
was raging at the time, with
winds churning up l5-foot
waves.
A Coast Guard amphibian
plane took off this morning
from Floyd Bennett Field to
search the area, after delays
because Of high winds.
The tug was operated by the
Steers Sand and Gravel Co., of
Huntington, N. Y.
Finding Confirmed
The commanding officer at
Eatons Neck Coast Guard sta
ton confirmed finding of the
lifeboat, with the body in it.
The tug last made radio con-
tact at about 4:45 pm. yes
terday, the Coast Guard said.
Since 6 pm, all attempts to
get in touch with the vessel
have failed.

ger copper mining centers in
Southern Katanga. It has long
been a base for Katanga's
small air force.
There are known to be a
considerable number of Ka-
tanga troops based there. One
of Mr.. Tshombe's leading mer-
cenaries-a Frenchman-told
a newsman in Ndola today he
is preparing to make his way
to Kolwezi with other white
volunteers.
The number of white men
now serving or about to serve
in the Katangan Army varies
in estimates between 200 and
500. The Frenchman said they
are concentrating in Kolwezi
and Jadotville. 10 miles north
west Of Elisabethville.
Latest reports from Elisa
bethville said the u. N. force
is thinking of moving on ia
dotville and then continuing
along the main road to Kolwezi.
However, Kolwezi is q strongly
defended position with its ap-
proach across a big lake.
Stand Could Be Made
The road bridge there is
known to be mined and ready
for demolition and Katangan
troops could make a stand.
Katanga's Air Force has been
reputed to include IL Mustang
fighters, IL Harvard utility air
craft, a few transports and
one Fouga jet plane which is
thought to be unserviceable.
U. N. jet fighters have been
strafing the Kolwezi airfield,
but Katangans declare little
damage has been done.
Mr.. Tshombe's flight to Kol-
wezi surprised the authorities
here as it was expected he
would first fly to Ndola. His
wife is in the Federal govern
ment hospital here suffering
from a miscarriage. However
his associates in Ndola said
Mr.. Tshombe has to thrust
aside personal anxieties for
his concern over Katanga."
