Plannsteel, Phone 198, Seaforth LLo ,D in The Winnipeg Free Press) On the WIfflit. of April 16, the British submarine Affray, 75 men on board, while on exercise in the EngLisk Channel, vanished. - Submarine! on occasion meet with accidents. But very rarely do they vanish. Theemodern submar- ine, and the Affray is a Modern, ship, has radio and other equip- ment which enables communica- tion with other ships to be carried on. There are, as well, numerous escape devices 'Apr the crew as well as means of releasing identi- fication markers. Although equip- ped with these devices and means, fibs Affray vanished. The loss was front page news. But later developments have not received adequate publicity. The following •facts are drawn largely from. statements made by responsible ministers in the Bri- tish House of Commons. The Affray sailed from Ports- mouth and was on normal exer- cises on the night of April 16. The last signal received from her was the normal diving signal. After that there was silence. No word of a collision or other mishap was received. For three days all available ves- sels traversed the waters at and West of the point at which the Af- fray had begun her slant down- wards. They hoped to pick up survivors released through special tubes or to hear signals in their supersonic apparatus or find oil patches or buoys. There were many clues but time duly falsified all of them and removed all hope of rescue. The admiralty then set about finding the lost ship. Seldom can dealing with the great value, of spiritual things. 'Mrs. H. Mcw- an and Mrs. R. Broderick render- ed a duet, "How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds," and Miss Jean Henderson sang, "0 Dry Those Tears," accompanied at the organ console by Mr. Nicol. . At the con- clusion of the service Mr. Nicol gave a splendid rendition of the "Hallelujah Chorus." On Sunday morning next Rev. Sinclair, Sr,, will conduct union service at Chis- elhurst Church at 9:45 and at Car- mel at 11 a.m. BE PREPARED FOR HOSPITALITY WITH 654".,m-657a<4K REG.

Slowly, ships mov- ed over •this area, aearchfng the sea floor with their saadic equip- ment. Every hull lying there could•, be identfiied by the asdic echose. But the operators could not tell by their echoes what manner of Ship it was. As the minister told the British House of Commons, "The bed of the channel is lit- tered with wrecks." For thousands of years vessels have passed over these waters. The sea had taken its ton. In this (particular area, 70 hulls• were located any one of whit*, or none, might be the Affray. The depth of water was above 200 feet. The onlypossible Pos ble system was for divers and diving ships, with glass windows and strong lights through which the crew could peer out in- to the murk, to examine each hull. The search went on for nearly two months and then on June 14, when the order of abandonment was about to be given, the news came. The (Affray was found, 37 miles westward of the point at which she had dived, in 258 feet of water. She was found on the bank which marks the northern edge of Hurd Deep, a valley in the ocean that was used by the navy after both world wars as a dump- ing ground for unwanted mater- ial. She is on even keel. In her 37 mile dive, the Affray came within a few feet of sliding into eternity, beyond the reach of light. What happened? No one knows. All that is clear is that a diver, making his way along the side of a hull, spell- ed out the name "Affray." He rose to the top of the hull and found the periscope. The search had ended. Further examination revealed that all hatches are closed and her buoys housed. The hydroplanes are set to rise. No attempt was made to use any of the escape hatches. The snorkel snout of the Affray is bent down over the side, open- ing a hole 15 to 18 inches across into the hull of the ship. What caused this breakage is not clear. A collision with a surface ship would be seriously injured. No such injury was reported. As pointed out in the British House, this injury does not be- gin to explain the loss. Two auto- matic valves, below the snorkel should prevent the inflow of wa- ter. Were both of these valves broken or jammed, it would be on- ly the work of an instant to re- lease indicator buoys and of a few moments to use escape hatches. The story of the Affray is not yet ended, and will not be until the hull is raid"sd. So Ear no de- cision has been made as to sal- vage.
