Here is the first full view of the U. S. submarine S-51, obtained as the water was drained out of her dry dock and Navy workmen prepared to enter and bring out the bodies of the crew Who perished at their posts.

Scientists from the Smithsonian Institution at Washington are on their waf there to see if the figures are indeed petrified bodies or only remarkably life-like tree trunks. Incidentally the miners refuse to work in the part of the shaft where the bodies were found, calling it "the graveyard."
