NORFOLK, Va., March 16 (UP) Twenty crew mombors of a small American freighter apparently perished when a sub marine torpedoed and sunk tlio ship without warning, seven survivors landed here said to day. The submarine circled around the spot where the ship sank, without being observed by U. S. navy planes which flew high overhead at the time, the sur vivors said. The ship sunk so rapidly that there was no tune to lower a lifeboat or even throw a raft overboard. The survivors man aged to climb on one or two rafts that broke loose from the freighter after the torpedo struck. The attack occurred early Wednesday morning, March 11. Ono torpedo plowed into the ship and less than a minute later a second blasted the vessel. The ship sank within two minutes, according to the survivors, who were picked up Wednesday af ternoon. The survivors included Capt. Nicholas Manolls of Brooklyn, N. Y. Relating that he was on the bridge when the first torpedo struck, Manolls said he "hardly had time to turn around before the second struck." He ordered the mate to blow the whistle and sound the alarm to abandon ship, he added. Then we dashed for the life boats," he continued, "but by that time the ship was sinking so fast there was nothing for us to do but swim out In the water. He had been in the water about IS minutes, he related, when one of the rafts floated by. I crawled onto It and then picked up the second mate and the quartermaster," he said. "About an hour later we picked up four others. Yellow Light "Meanwhile, the others strug gled In the water," he added. "I could hear their cries for help, but I couldn't see them. After a time I heard no more cries. I sup pose they went down." All seven survivors said the submarine hoisted a yellow light shortly after the ship went down. It continued to circle In this vicinity, they said, despite the fact navy planes were fly ing overhead.
