Bombing Test Started Today on Washington Off Virginia Capes
Bombing experiments began fifty miles east of Cape Charles under Rear Admiral Hughes with 7 346 Navy experts testing the Washington hull. If the wreck endures, Texas shells may sink her in fifty fathoms of water, possibly delaying final disposal. The Washington, nickname RV 47, left Philadelphia in tow as gales delayed moving to drill grounds. Government has spent 35 million on the hull and some expect it to be towed back for scrapping.
