The after half Of the ship

this engine area, pipes big

solder at every Joint.
The sea water came into the
ship through openings In the
pressure hull, each opening just
the proper size for its particu-
lar pipe or tube. There were
about 100 such openings in
Thresher's hill, each doubly
protected by two separately op-

valves. Inside the ship were
5000 other valves in this maze

secrecy, provided her propul-
sion.
She displaced 3.732 tons
when surfaced and 4.311 tons
submerged--a big ship by US
ual standards, tremendous In
comparison with World War
II pigboats, but small along
side the 1000 tonners now be-
ing built as launching plat
forms for A-3 Polaris missiles.
Inside her sleek outer hull,
which flooded inside and out
when submerged and which
thus did not need great struc-
tural strength, was the true
body Of Thresher. This pres
sure hull was not streamlined.
but it was strong. It was the
outer limit Of the closed ecol-
ogy, the little world that was
Thresher submerged.
TOrpedOes Amidship
At the front of the pressure
hull was q large bulbous area
in which the super-sensitive
sonar and other listening and
tracking devices were housed.
Her weaponry, chiefly torpe-
does pending availability Of Su-
broc, were amidships instead
of forward and were fired from
tubes canted 20 degrees out

Aft Of the sonar area,
Thresher's pressure hull Wild
ened and took on an accept
able hydrodynamic shape for
much of the ships remaining
length. In the forward half of
the ship, along with the sonar
gear. was the bulk Of living
space for the normal compile
tment Of 8 officers and rs en-
listed men. 1t was commodious
to the point Of luxury by

during hostilities, and the jap
anese redesigned their depth
charges to explode at lower
levels. The tragic result of this
leak was an upswing in Ameri-
can submarine losses toward
wars end.
But it can be no secret that
Thresher's depth limit was far
beyond the 400-foot level ad-
mitted in Navy handouts, or
its speed much greater than 20
knots (23 miles an hour. The
fact that she had to 60 be-
yond the continental shelf to
find water deep enough for a
test dive gives some indication.
since there is some water
over 1000 feet deep closer to
land.
It does not follow, however,
that her test depth was any
where near the 8,400-foot mark.
At the edge of the shelf, wa
ter drops off rapidly and there
is little horizontal distance be-
tween 100 fathoms (600 feet)
and 1000 fathoms $4,000 feet)
Speed Increased
Unlike the boats Of World
War II, power has never been
a limiting factor for the nukes.
When hull design was changed
from that of the shiplike Maui
titus to that of the whalelike
Skipjack. vast increases in
speed followed with little i'm
provement in the nuclear re-
actors basic design. More ef-
ficient propellers, among other
things, made Thresher class
ships faster than Skipjack,
again with no drastic upgrad-
ing of the nuclear power plant.
Even ThreSher's surviving sis
ters. Permit and Plunger, have
never used all the power their
reactors afford.
In discussing late-model sub
marines, Navy spokesmen in
dulge in a strange method of
speaking that might be termed

There is deep" and very

the latter a phrase that begins
to describe Thresher's test
depth.
Little unclassified indications
have a way Of creeping out
from behind the paper curtain,
such as the fact that Thresh-
er's hull was made Of HY-SO

material rated at 10000 pounds

caused by contact with a substance to

prevention is to stay away from the

WHAT are INVEST Hives usually occur

two most frequent causes.
WHAT ARs WARTsP Warts are a virus
infection. The virus usually takes root
on part of the skin that has suffered
