'21. (J i Knowledge that he courted the death which may now be his with in the steel confines of the 1 wrecked submarine S-4, was held by Walter Bishop of Washington, : radioman aboard her, hut, like his . comrades In peril, he was fasclnat , ed by "life in a. damued old sub." j Prophetic in its recital of tKe dangers braved aboard a "pig bout'' a poem written some tunc two by Bishop has come to light as a self-sung requiem over those who went to their death with the S-4 off Provincetown.. Entitled "The Sub marine," the poem fits particular ly well Into the story of the S-4 with lis description of the close quarters of an undersea boat. Opening with the observation that many "rave of battleships, Spotless and clean," hut that not much Is said of "life on a subma rine," the poem continued: In the cantankerous mind of (ho : devil rjr. 7'ht'ro, festorod a. fiendish scheme; i; Ho called hi3 cohorts around him And designed the submarine, ii . They planned and plotted to do their worst, . In perfecting this awful thing; j And since completing their hideous; work i Are waiting what evil It will , bring. . i The after battery is where wo eat That is, when we roll the least Wtiile hanging on to keep our place - t Likq some prehensile beast.

The Boston navy yard today announced that the destroyer Sturtevatit. now un der wuy for the scene of the sink ing of the submarine S-4, carried apparatus with which an attempt mlht be made to calm the troub lous Bens with compressed air.,- Use c( compressed air was sug- KOBtpd by Philip Urahoar, of Princeton University, who recent ly set forth the idea that shins anchored in mldoceau might afford landing places for trans-Atlitntlc pluncs by calming the wuter around them In a similar way. The announcement from the navy yard suld that Mr. Drushoar himself wns aboard the Sturtcvnnt nnd his scnemu tor calming the troubled wnters off Provincetown would be attempted if It appeared at all leuslble., PrtOVINCRTOWN, Mass., Dec. 21. Diving operations were resum ed at 12:y0 o'clock today In nu ntlempt to rescue the six men im prisoned in the wreck of the sunk en submurino S-4. The first man to go down was James Ingram who wa& the first to be lowered wlien the S-51 was sunk off Block Is land two years ago. The sea was so calm the diver was lowered directly over tho side of tho mine sweeper Falcon, tho flagship of the salvage fleet. The diving platform had , been rigged but was not found neccssnry. Commnnder Edward Ellsberg. who had charge of S-61 salvage work, wa& at tho telephone on the deck, maintaining communications with tho diver. m . II. C. (Tug) Wilson, who wns the second diver to go down to tho S-51 was in his diving suit ready to make the descent ns soon ns In gram came up. Because of the time consumed in lowering and rulsing Hie diver, mado necessary by the changing pressure at vari ous levels, no report on Ingram's findings was available at 2 o'clock.
