County road work is progress
ing on a tentative schedule so
far this year, according to Coun
ty Engineer Frank Howard,
pending a decision on how much
work will have to be done on
the roads around the local
port.
Work already completed un
der the tentative schedule, how
ever, includes graveling of the
Alameda extension; re-graveling
of the El Dorado extension and
graveling of the Spring Lake
road around the diversion chan
nel. By May, Howard said, work
should be finished on comple
tion of one and a half miles of
grading and graveling on the
Lower Lake road; completion
of the grade on the north Poe
Valley road from tha Liskey
ranch to the Harpold bridge and
reconstruction of the "chalk
bank" section.
Drag-line work is planned on
the Langell valley road; gravel
ing of a stretch on the Bradbury
road around the Wilson bridge,
and reconstruction of Shasta
way from Sixth street to the
canal.
Before July 1, which marks
the beginning of a new road
budget, about 10 miles of road
between Klamath Falls and
Malin should be prepared for
oiling, Howard said.

Survivors of
Sunk Vessel
Arrive in U. S.
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.
