abreast of developments later
in the afternoon. One of the
programs channel 7 did return

Bon-Bomb Morchers
Storm Secret Bunker

LONDON, April Is (AP).-
A thousand ban-the-bomb ex-
tremists broke away from the
annual 50-mile Aldermaston-
to-London march today and
stormed q secret underground
civil defense bunker, shouting
at police and showing them
aside.
Egged on by members Of the
militant Committee Of 100, the
extremists skirted q police bar
rier a mile from the bunker
and infiltrated through q
woods. Policemen stationed
around the concrete and steel
bunker provided no immediate
serious obstacle to the demon
strators.
Reinforced later, the police
kept most Of the demonstrators
from the bunker itself, but q
few made their way past a
leashed, swapping Alsatian dog
and mounted to the top, wav-
ing their banners.
There was some showing and
some minor scuffles but no one
was hurt.
I'VE are sitting on this place
because we want to satirize the
whole effort that is going into
preparation for nuclear war;"
said Peter Cadogan, secretary
Of the Committee Of 100.

sibly have struck a hitherto un-
known pinnacle in the sea.
Included among the debris
taken aboard the DESTROYER
S. B. Roberts for transfer to
shore were some rubber gloves
of the type used by people
who work on nuclear reactors, {"
Capt. Andrews said. Also re-
covered were pieces of a plastic
used as neutron shielding
around atomic reactor cores.
Phase II will continue several
days. Capt. Andrews said, and
will be augmented shortly by
the Polaris-type nuclear sub
marine Thomas jefferson. The
jefferson has a very high reso-
luton bottom sounder, which
conceivably will be able to dis
Germ Thresher's hull as a tiny
bump on the bottom.
In preparation for Jefferson's
arrival, a line of search ships
deployed across the disaster
scene today to make detailed,
but less precise, bottom maps.
The area to be combed and de-
fined is about six miles in ra-
dius.
Capt. Andrews ruled out, as
Navy officials in Washington
had done. the possibility Of any
radioactive contamination from
Thresher. Bottom and water
samples have been taken from
more than a dozen points
without turning up unusual ra-
dioactivity.
The Third Phase
Phase III will begin, Capt.
Andrews said, when it has been
decided whether TO try to in
vestigate Thresher's hull visual
