Submarine F-4 Missing With 25 Crew Off Honolulu
Honolulu reports state that the U S submarine F-4 carrying 25 men disappeared after diving off Honolulu harbor during target practice. Later sonar indicated the vessel lay at 126 fathoms deep. No signals were heard and fears grew of tank ruptures and gas suffocation. The search fleet including three other submarines and a navy tug scoured the area for hours. The F-4 was built in Seattle in 1912 with a 500000 dollar cost, 142 feet length, and a 400 ton submerged displacement.
