Hopes fade for survivors of Arctic ship
Storms with 20 foot waves and 60 mph winds thwart air search for the Danish liner Hans Hedtoft after it struck an iceberg amid heavy ice. An Argentia based Constellation and other vessels scoured the area but found no trace. Passengers and crew included a doctor, 19 women, and six children. The ship boasted seven watertight compartments and an auxiliary engine, with lifeboats and radios for signaling, but the engine room was reported flooded and the vessel was believed sunk about 900 miles from the North Atlantic graveyard.
