SAILS UNDER WATER RADDATZ CLAIMS WORLD'S FIRST WORKING SUBMARINE

Richard Raddatz of Oshkosh Wisconsin claims to have solved submarine navigation with a craft that runs up to ten miles per hour on the surface and ten under water, powered by a hot air engine and electric motor. The vessel seats one, weighs 26000 pounds, and tests have occurred in Lake Winnebago with plans for Lake Michigan trials. Raddatz, a 25 year old machinist and draftsperson from Oshkosh, attributes success to a hidden propulsion secret and an air renewal process.
