A reciinllulallon of the bomb's ili'slructivo power showed two attack-transports, tne Carlisle and the Uiiliam, sunk. The de stroyer Lamsoit was capsized and later went down, and the destroyer Anderson was so bad ly dumaged it was expected to sink ntuiiienlurlly. The Japanese cruiser Sakawa was ripped open at the water line and may sink. Fires still were burning late tonight aboard the carrier Inde pendence, which suffered the greatest damage of any vessel alloat and was listing hndly. Heavy damage, particularly topside, was done to the battle ship Arkansas, the Japanese bat tleship Nagato, the submarine Skate, tile lieavy cruiser Pensa coin and a tank landing shin. The battleship Pennsylvania had a small fire which was put out by a firebnat. Animals Live On the deck of the Pennsyl vania, contentedly chewing hay were a number of goats which had been placed aboard to de termine the effect of atomic f-ncrgy on animals. Rear Adm Thnrvald Soltierg said the goats "had a gleam In their eve and seemed perfectly happy.1' There have been no reports of what happened to animals on other snips, particularly those near the center of the lagoon. The bomb burst as seen from this press ship was something like a fairly unusual sunset. There was little noise, a alight heat v.ive, and no heavier sea as a result. Correspondents had been pro vided with darkened goggles, and warned against looking di rectly into the "terrific glare." They were cautioned not to Cerch on a precarious position ecause they "might be knock ed off by the biast." After It was over the news, men looked at each other with bewildered expressions. The mountain had labored and brought forth a moderate sized mouse. The mouse might grow Into a monster when everything is tabulated, but at this Junc ture It remained very much a mouse. Naked-Eye View Entrances Sailor ABOARD USS APPALACH IAN OFF BIKINI, July 1 iA) Tile most beautiful sight of the atomic blast was that seen on the Appalachian by S 1c Ken neth 1 horn, who kept his uncov ered eyes looking directly at the flash all the time, despite warn ings all aboard should wear spe cial dark goggles. Thorn, who lives In the Bronx, New York, unwittingly contrib uted a new scientific chapter to the A-bomb explosion, lie saw the first flash aa a bright red ball. Everyone who kept his glasses on saw this flash as white. What happened to Thorn was that in the first few millionth of a second, the flash caused slight blind spots in the center of his eyes. Because of these spots he saw red color for a few seconds. "Boyl" he exclaimed. "It was the most beautiful thing t ever saw. I can't describe the bril liance of the red ball I saw. It was a lighter color than a red stop light. It was alive. It spread In a flash to a big red ball and the color turned red-yellow. I never dreamed anything could be so brilliant." Firecracker Sets Off 'Little Bikini' PORTLAND, July 1 lP) One suburban neighborhood today was talking of Its own little Bikini, touched off when a youth tossed a firecracker into a fireworks stand. Skyrockets whirred down streets and made spectators' battle stations precarious. Cherry bombs blew ud and regal romnn candles arched through the air as $1000 worth of Fourth of July mer chandlse roared and crackled.
