Sealers Caught In Ice Floe

(Canadian Press)

ST. JOHN'S, Nfld., March l’l.—— Four Newfoundland sealing steam- ers sheltered under the lee of ice today as storm threatened, while their two sister vessels lay helpless with broken propellor shafts be- tween Gogo and Punks Islands.

Word today from the Ranger and the Neptune, veterans of the fleet which lost their propellers early this week, was that all was well. To- night the steamer Kyle, out of St. John's to assist the Ranger, wire- lessed that she was stuck in heavy ice 40 miles short of her objective. The Sagona, bound for the Neptune was apparently still forging ahead. About 80 miles of water and lcefloe separated the two disabled sealers.

Meanwhile, fifty or sixty miles to- the northward, the rest of the fleet had run alongside natural ice-piers to prevent going adrift, but their crews were evidently making use of their time. Pilot Arthur Sullivan. who flew over them today reported i the Beothlc. Imogene, Eagle and Terra Nova taking seal.
