(By Associated Press) Questions con cerning the cause and responsi bility for the! sinking 'of the sub marine S-51 oft Block island were passed over by the navy depart ment today while all efforts were bent toward r rescuing any who might be alive oil the craft. There was evident, however, a determin ation to probe thoroughly Into all aspects of the disaster. Secretary Wilbur, although he made clear that he was not criti cizing In the absence of definite information, said only most un usual circumstances would have warranted the City : of Rome, which struck the submarine.' In leaving the scene before naval rescue craft arrived. High officers at the sam time Indicated a belief that the submar ine had not been given the right of way to which she was entitled by her position under the laws of the sea and may have in effeot been run down. A Jioard'of inquiry will be ap pointed to go Into all questions In an effort to determine the reason for the disaster but pending de termination ot the fate of the miss Ing, any step In this direction is being withheld. Anxiously and sorrowfully the department received dispatches from the scene today and pieced together the story of the tragedy, In a brief visit to the White House Mr. Wilbur acquainted President Coolidge with the situation. Mr. Wilbur, in discusslnir the departure-of the City of Rome from. the scene, said it might have thought when the submarine sank that all aboard were lost, which was not necessarily the case with such craft. The " steamer rave bearing to' locate the spot but Mr wilDur declared these were not always accurate, and a slight dis crepancy might delay rescue work for hours.

The foregoing 'froTn William Shakespeare's lmmorUI drama Is the inspiration for the name ot Salem's new theater which is al ready, about ha'f completed.

It hat some happy scenes, but none more pertinent to the drama and ' lit traditions ' than Hamlet's unaffected and cordial greeting of the players. Elslnore, of course.

Be-1 sides, the time 'of, Hamlet was In the 11th or 12th century, which was the heyday ot Gothic archi-1 tecture.

Clubs to be Organized; FatberSon and Mother Daughter Banquets Are Planned for Winter This year's program for the county YMCA Is to' be fuller than ever, according to Benjamin J. Kimber. secretary for the Marion county YMCA. The work done by the county YMCA Is all out of the dy of Salem, as the county or- ganization is separate ana distinct from the Salem YMCA. Last year there were six Hl-Y ciuds in tne county, ana mis year there will probably be eight. Last year there were eight Pioneer clubs In the county and this year there will probably be twelve Last year nine high schools were served by the county YMCA. ana no grammer schools.' but this year 11 high schools as well as several grammar schools are to be served. The YMCA hopes to have tataer a 80n banquet In every v"muuu1' luo mese oanqueis win oe aisinouiea throughout the year. There will be six "leader" train ing classes in which will be given short 'courses In club activities. and how to handle boys. : Classes will be held for the leaders, for sponsors of the clubs, and for Sun day school teachers. Then, too, there will be in every community Sunday afternoon meetings fOT men. ' " ' -'i ' .. In conjunction with the Salem YMCA the county YWCA will help a. 1 1 ftue mviuci uu uo.ukui.ci i- quets throughont the : county. There will be gospel teams to as. sist the churches, athletic contests and tests to assist the schools, and hikes, entertainments, etc-, will be conducted. During tne course of tbe year rwo wi - r - conrenxions. - iwo - otaeri boys conferences. One of the older boys conferences Is to be held either here or at Sllverton. and the ' other, the state ; confer ence. Is to be held at McMlnnvllle. Last year 14 addresses were made in tbe clubs, schools, churches and communities. A thrift campaign throughout the county was sponsored, and was I - backed by bank-. Wise spending. rather than saving, was stressed 1 during last year's campaign, but the point to be stressed this year has not yet been decided npon. In the high school work this year the YMCA win conduct a monthly speaking tour, and the best talent available will be ob tained. " It is the plan of the "Y tor the Hl-Y clubs to have a pro gram a month at which some man who has been an outstanding suc cess in his vocation or profession will tell the boys in the club the particular pointers that may help them" in entering into the same business. Nine or maybe 12 such men will address the Hl-Y's ot the county during tbe school year. As a' follow-up work the YMCA will Issue self-analysis blanks for the boys to fill out. and they will be helped In choosing the vocation for which they are best suited. Members of the YMCA county committee for this year will be Prof. C. V. White of Stayton, Prof. F. E. Fagan ot Wood bum. Dr. F. E. Brown of Salem, John S. Harper of Gervals. T- O.

'The sub marine S-51 lay tonight la , 23 fathoms ot water a few miles otf Block Island while men from other ships of the navy were doing their best to learn whether any of the 24 men on board were alive. The submarine was rammed last night by the Savannah line steamer City of Rome. The only, members of the crew ot 37 rescued ' by the steamer were three seamen who (were landed In Boston late today. one of them In bad shape. . These three men held little hope that their comrades would - be found alive because they said chlorine gas had been released In the submarine. . They owed their escape tcf the fact that they were near the conning tower and float ed out. A message received at the navy yard tonight described unsuccess- ful attempts by divers to raise the sunken submarine by means ot compressed air and stated that re peated efforts to communicate ith the submarine's crew 'tad proved unsuccesstuL The divers had verified reports that the vessel had been pierced near "frame 64 ot her structure. "Air was connected to the com partment and ballast tank and the air was applied with no success." the message said. "Will continue to apply the air and will endeavor to pass slings under the stern and attempt to raise clear for rescue." Tbe communication said that w' I A diver sent down from the U. S. S. Camden reported that he had been unsuccessful In his attempts to communicate with the crew of the submarine. He found a largs hole In her port side abaft the con ning tower.
