Search Continues For Missing Grand Zenith Tanker

The Coast Guard said it may soon begin searching for lifeboats and life jackets from the tanker Grand Zenith missing in the North Atlantic with 8 million gallons of industrial oil. Seven planes from U S and Canadian forces and the U S Navy and Air Force mapped about 100000 square miles off southeastern Canada and the U S Northeast. The Panamanian vessel with 38 crew men was due in Somerset Massachusetts last Sunday and has not been heard since Friday. A report of a sighting led to no results as searchers covered Georges Bank area east of Cape Cod. The wreck was linked to the Argo Merchant spill last December as officials analyze oil samples aboard the Dallas. Other recent tanker incidents include the Universe Leader and the Sansinena with varying oil spills and no fatalities noted.
