"Townsend" With 3 Crewmen Aboard Aground in Oregon Inlet; Tow Still Missing The soagoinR tug W J. Town send with three men aboard was still agi-onnd Thursd.ny morning after running onto a sand bar at Oregon Inlet on Saturday afteiTioon. Tlie Coast Guard is still searching for a 4,000 ton dvydock sction the tug lost in '•the Atlantic when a towline parted as the tug was enroute from New York to Charleston. The section had not been found on Thursday morning, despite aircraft search attempts by the tug’s owner, Charleston Dry Dock & .Shipbuilding Co. An advisory warning to mar iners was issued by 5th Coast Guard Headquarters last Satur day aftenioon telling that the missing wooden section, 116 feet long and 88 feet wide, is a pos sible menace to navigation. The tug went agi-ound shortly after 8 p.m. on Saturday while headed into the Outer Banks for 1, repair.s. The cutter Chilula was oidered to the scene from More- head City after a call from as sistance was radioed to Oregon Inlet Coast Guard Station. An unsucce.s.sful attempt was made to I'oflnat the tug at high tide on Sunday night, and an other attempt to get it off on Monday by the Coast Guard met with failure. The grounded craft had nine of her crow removed by a Coast Guard ve.sscl on Tuesday morn ing. She is reported to be in no immediate danger. The Cliiltila is reported to have lines on the tug. Lost Section Tlie Townsend lost its tow on the dry dock .section about 7:15 Friday, somewhere off the Vir ginia-North Carolina Coast. Its master, William Townsentl, told the Coast Guard by radio he felt .a surge on the tow lino and lost contact with the section almost at once. He said the sections lights were burning when he last saw it. No effort was being made to recover the derelict section by the Coast Guard. A spokesmen in Portsmouth said Sunday there was a . “good indication” that the seclion had sunk, since it had not been sighted since the tow line parted. “We’ll have to wait for reports on its being sighted before we can do any thing,” ho added. In Charleston, Louis Green, president of Charleston Dry Dock & Shipbuilding dis.agreed “We think it’s floating,” he said “It’s made of solid wood and would float for months. We fig ure it’s probably drifting some where near latitude 36.16 north, longitude 74 west.” Ho said his firm would charger a tug to Lake the section in if it is spotted by the Coast Guard.
