Fire-Scarred Carrier
'Will Recover, Sail'
NEW YORK (AP)-Th imoke
Jaded. The hissing (team was
:sti!led. But the scar of violence
remained on the mighty aircraft
carrier Constellation, a warship
that had its baptism of fire before
it ever saw duty.
Through the night and into the
early morning today a valiant and
tireless brigade of firemen and
rescue workers swarmed over the
ship probing through the dark
smokv passages, skimming the
last flashes of fire and searching
for casualties.
Tall ladders, moving hoists and
a maze of ropes and hoses formed
' a weird pattern against the dark
looming bulk of the huge vessel.
In the glare of the shifting
floodlights, the men were like ur
gent Lilliputians swarming over
a prostrate husk of a giant.
"Stretcher-bearers over here,
nlease." barked a loudspeaker,
and the ship yielded up another
of its mournful cargo.
The carrier had cradled death
and had known destruction while
it still lay majestic at the berth
where It was built. The Constella
tion was a battle-marked veteran
six months before it entered the
line.
The offia-rs wore the strained
but dogged look of men after bat
tle. But the Navy, true to tradi
tion, mustered its "carry on" grit.
"I would like to emphasize that
this ship will recover from her
damage and will go to sea, said
Adm. Schuyler N. Pyne, in charge
of the Brooklyn Shipyard where
the vessel, 90 per cent complete
when the fire came, was moored
', The ship's newly assigned skip
per, Cant. Thomas J. Walker, not'
ed- conjectures that the fire and
death might cause "superstitions
about the ship."
"I. feel certain that this Is not
the case," he added. "The attitude
of the crew is that she will be the
finest ship afloat. Of this we arc
firmly resolved."
Adm. Pyne Interjected, "This
disaster can dcublc that resolve."
Through the nisjlit the fight for
the ship and the civilian construe
tion men wlio were aboard when
the fire struck was a stark tab'
le.iu.

Each time a victim was brought
out it was a tiny vignette of trag

Lines of men, like pack trains,
moved n and out of the area

Most of the dead were brought
from the innards of he ship,
trapped there by the fire that was
concentrated originally on the
main deck.
Some were drowned below in the
torrent of water poured into the
ship in fighting the flames. Oth
ers suffocated from smoke.
At the outset, the fire blocked
the gangways leading to shore,
and more than 3,000 construction
workers were removed from the
vessel by launch or crane lift from
the flight deck above the fire.
Some dived Into the icy waters
of the East River and were picked
up. But those below the fire
were the crucial concern in the
terrible drama.
Many of those alive and dead-
brought out of that area were tak

2Mi-inch steel plate on the ship s

Other holes were cut in the star
