Submarine Salvaged After 12 Years in Sea Kiel, Germany V A Nazi submarine has been salvaged after 12 years on the bottom of the Baltic Sea. But it will never see service in the new West German navy. It's too big. Salvage craft towed the elec tric U-boat 2540 into this port Wednesday. It had been scuttled off Flensburg, between Germany and Denmark, in March 1345 to prevent it from falling into the hands of the victorious Allied forces. The submarine, lying under 35 feet of water, was found last February. It was raised by the German salvase ships Energie and Ausdauer following their re turn from salvase operations in the Suez Canal. The submarine was the most modern and best equipped un derwater craft built by Nazi Germany. Rescuers Seeking Woman Lost in Deserl Castolon, Tex.

Presidential pilot. Lt. Col. William G. Draper, expected that the Columbine trouble a fail ure of its electrical system could be fixed up for the trip back to Washington. But he chose to put the President in the substitute plane until a com plete repair and checking job could be done on the Columbine b.ick in its own hangar. He did so even though the electric trouble would not have affected the actual flying of the aircraft. As it turned out, Draper's ex pectations were correct, and the big silver Columbine was flown back to the capital with no mis hap. But Draper, who probably gives the Columbine more at tention than any other plane in the world gets, never takes even the slightest chance with the President aboard. Air Force man Draper's dilem ma with the Columbine earned him a ribbing from another crack pilot on the White House staff, a ribbing that was laugh ingly enjoyed by Eisenhower. When Eisenhower stepped down the Columbine ramp to switch pianes. his naval aide and naval flier Capt. E. P. Pete Aurand, was standing at the foot of the ramp with a grin on his face a mile wide. Aurand added insult to injury by suggesting that the President return to Washington on one of the hvo small crafts the Navy maintains for presidential water travel the suggestion was ve toed, because there was not enough room on board for the entire presidential party. for sinking a Japanese cruiser with one bomb dropped down its smokestack from only 75 feet. Aurand says only, "I was lucky, they weren't looking." Aurand may sing the praises of the Navy, particularly for Draper's benefit, but he is the ; picture of modesty about his own impressive career in it. I Little know n fact about the crack flier, first Navy flier to i land a jet on an aircraft carrier, j is the job that won for him the j Navy Cross.
