Notre Dame Grid
Player Injured

Notre Dame's 4,800 students pray
ed at mass today for the recovery
of football end Ray Espenan, 24,
who was In a critical condition
after breaking his neck in a fall.
Espenan, a physical education
senior from New Orleans, La.,
broke a vertebrae in his neck
yesterday demonstrating a back
flip for students at South Bend
central high school.
Paralysis struck him below the
shoulders and he was taken to
St. Joseph's hospital, where he
underwent immediate surgery.
He was in the operating room
for five hours and when he was
returned to his room, he was
conscious but still paralyzed.
, Espenan's parents, Mr. and
Mrs. E. J. Espenan, rushed by
airplane from New Orleans. His
brother, Pierre, a pre-medica!
student at Notre Dame, sat by
his bedside through the night.
His closest campus friend, Jer
ry Ramsberger, 25, Dunellen, N.
J., witnessed the accident.
"He didn t make the back flip
fully," Ramsberger. said. "His
head must have hit the canvas.
He 3"st lay there. He was fully
conscious, but he was paralyzed."
Ramsberger, almost in tears,
said a physician told him Espe
nan was battling eight to one
odds to survive. r
Espenan, a navy veteran made
the Notre Dame squad as a fresh
man four years ago, but he never
reached football prominence,
chiefly because he was a substi
tute for Leon Hart, the gigantic
Irish star who was all-American
last season.

'Ghost' Ship
Discovered
By Destroyer
London, Feb. 21 (LP) The Brit
ish admiralty said today that the
"ghost ship" found abandoned
and drifting In the Mediterranean,
yesterday by an American de
stroyer is the - former British
army auxiliary Imperia.
The vessel was turned over to
the admiralty last month for dis
posal. It was sold to a Greek citi
zen named Zassillos Zaharis.
But the admiralty had no clue
to the mystery of what happened
to the crew of the vessel or why
it should have been abandoned.
The American destroyer MacKen-
zie came across the Imperia 30
miles north of Tripoli, North Af
rica, in a glassy sea.
A toardlng party from the Mac-1
Kenzie found the yacht deserted.
The destroyer towed it to Tripoli.
A brief message said the Imperia
was reported to have left Tripoli
on a 200-mile voyage to Malta,
British Mediterranean naval base
noi th of Tripoli.
. The U. S. navy in London said
that salvage rights of American
suilorr on the MacKenzie still
were not clear. A spokesman re
called that the American cruiser
Omaha during the war picked up
an Abandoned German ship and
salvage rights in that case still
have not been settled.
He said the American consul in
Tripoli will receive instructions
direct from the navy judge advo
cate in Washington on what ac
tion to take.
The mysterious fate of those
aboard the Imperia recalled the

Hunter Fined
Greeley, Colo., Feb. 21 Ui
A Denver socialite paid a $500
fine for firing a shotgun blast
at ,a low-flyiiig plane during a
duck-hunting expedition.
The fine was slapped on Henry
C. Van Schaaek Jr., 37, after he
entered a plea of no contest yes
terday to a formal charge of as
sault with a deadly weapon.
The charge was filed by a
Greeley photographer, E. Gerard
Tammany, who complained that
his light plane was peppered by
buckshot as he passed over a
duck pond on Oct. 15. Neither
Tammany nor a passenger in the
plane were hurt in the blast.
Tammany himself was fined
$250 several weeks ago for "rel
ease of the American brig Mary
Celeste, which was found aband
oned in the Atlantic ocean 300
miles west of Gibraltar with all
sails set in 1872.
The fate of the captain and the
crew aboard the Mary Celeste
never was discovered. They sim
ply disappeared, leaving the ship
running before the wind under
full sail.
The Mary Celeste sailed from
New York harbor Nov. 7, 1872,
with a cargo of alcohol f6r Genoa,
Italy. It was found abandoned
five weeks later.
Naval officers in London said
they were at a loss to explain the
case of the Imperia. They said
there had been no heavy storms
in the Mediterranean recently
which could have washed thii
crew overboard.
lying" ducks by flying his plane
too low. The charge against Van
Schaaek grew out of the same
incident.
"People should not fly planes
that low," Van Schaak said after
he paid his fine. "But you
shouldn't shoot at 'em, I guess."
