Sub Scorpion mystery prompts Navy sonar search efforts
Pentagon officials weigh a British amateur radio operator report of a ship to ship contact involving the Scorpion. Navy divers stand by, with about 100 trained deep divers on alert, while surface craft scan the continental shelf from the Scorpion's last position toward Norfolk. The report sparks renewed hope only if the sub lies on the shelf, as depths beyond it would crush the vessel.
