The bo'sun, Thomas Roderick, of Sunderland, said to reporter: "While in the lifeboat I realised that the captain must still be in the sink- ing ship.
"My brother William, of South Shields, and William GIÍ), of Whit- burn, went overboard with me, and we swam back to the Goodwood,
"We found that Robert Percival, of North Shields, had stayed with thei slipper on the bridge. He was try- ing to get him clear of the wreckage.
Dropped Him Over
"We pulled the wreckage away, put n life-jocket on the captain, andj dropped him over the elde. Then we went overboard ourselves and managed to hold him up until the
feboat picked us up.
"Ten minutes later we were taken aboard a drifter."

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Nov. 13 (UP). Death "rays" may strike down millions of human beings if the European war contin- ues, Dr. Antonio Longoria, wealthy Cleveland scientist and inventor, declared in an interview here.
Scientists generally are sceptical of so-called death-. rays, which have long been a popular subject for imaginative speculation. But Dr. Longoria said he per- fected an apparatus in 1933 which killed pigeons on the wing at four miles.
Later, he said, he destroyed, the machine because of its in- herent danger.
"It's quite possible that someone may stumble across the particular
electric wave I used." sald Dr. Longoria, who in 1936 sold a weld- Ing process described as "Impes-
