NEW YORK l The Coast
Guard starts an inquiry today into
the collision of a small tanker and
a 33-foot cabin cruiser in the busy
East River. One woman died and
five persons were rescued in the
crash off 51st Street.
The 180-foot tanker M. J. Derby
II knifed into the cabin cruiser
in view of thousands of New
Yorkers.
The tanker, whose crew appar
ently was unaware of the colli
sion, carried the small boat pinned
to its prow for nearly 100 yards.
The cruiser then slipped free and
was swamped in the swirling
water.
The six occupants of the cruis
er, all New Yorkers, were pitched
into the river.
One of those picked up, Mrs.
Ruth Nettles, 27, failed to respond
to artificial respiration and was
pronounced dead an hour after
Ihe accident.
The survivors:
Alfred Landi. 39: Mrs. Ruth
Yurgrmi, 42: Miss Ruth Johnson,
3.5: Milton Peshkin, 51; and his
wife, 23.
Landi, the skipper, was taken
to a hospital with back injuries.
"The tanker plowed right into
us, he said. It rammed us in
the stern.'
He said he did not see the
tanker.
The Coast Guard said the tank
er captain, Kristian L. Hogeslol,
told them he did not know his
ship had struck the cruiser until
he heard shouts from the crowds
on the shore.
