intent to defy the college authorities

; account of matter of fact bravery
; in the face of death was given today p
j by survivors of the crew of the sub- e
marine H-l, who arrived here aboard p
the unotor ship Mazatlan. j r
The H-l went ashore off the coast
; of lower California, in Magdalena ^
bay Thursday night, March 11. The n
. commanding officer, Lieut. Comndr. j
l James R. Webb, and three enlisted j .
! men lost their lives in attempting to ; '
? leave the vessel. The survivors re- j

Watch for Bodies. jSj
I Commander Webb's body and that;"
, of Seaman Joseph Kauffman had not j11
l! been recovered, when the Mazatlan [
. left, but watch was being kept for; b
r them. From survivors of the crew, jn
. it was learned, that the H-l and its i P
sister submarine, the H-2, were sa.il* [n
| ing northward, the H-l in the lead. |8(
. The night of the disaster was dark jn
. and stormy, with a heavy sea, accord- i
j; ing to the men, and their first warn-; fi
. j ing of trouble was when the H-l j b
, grounded. The H-2 was only about!
, 400 yards behind but was able to ; f1
, change course and avoid a like fate., h
j Submarines of the type of the h
I H-l carry no small boats. The H-2
( could give no aid. The H-l crew
( had to rely on their own ability as C'
, swimmers to reach the shore of Re- li
dondo Point. The conning tower was si
{j opened and the crew ordered out. ii
j Commander Webb was washed into o
the sea from the conning tower d
! where he was directing the move- 1
. ments of the crew. The nijrht was d
j so dark that efforts to reach him *:-are z<
.; unavailing. Swimming alone or aid- o
in? each other, 20 men and two of- ti
, ficers of the crew readied shore, but a

three enlisted men became separated n
from their companions and perished S
