Bu t’nitrd Prmg WASHINGTON, May 27.—The ancient record of the shipwrecked Ulysses, who swam for several days and nights before reaching shore, w r as approached by Francis Klimkeiwicz, who is safe here today after a twenty-five-hour battle with the storm-swept Potomac.

His whole life history flashed before him in kaleidoscopic fashion. Now and again the current brought him near shore, only to sweep him away again. Night followed day and twentyfive hours elapsed before the swimmer crawled to safety on a sandy beach.

EASTERN COAST ’ATTACKED’ IN NAVALTESTS Planes and Fleet Will ‘Bombard’ Fort on Long Island Sound. Bu T'nilfd Prm* NEW LONDON, Conn., May 27. Safety of millions of residents of the eastern states theoretically was at stake today as an invading “enemy’’ fleet stormed the defense units of Long Island sound in the second day of a three-day mimic “war. ’ Long before dawn dreadnaughts, cruisers and destroyers comprising the attaucing Black fleet under command of Rear Admiral Frank H. Bru v steamed out of Narragansett } with all but running lights shrouded to attack Ft. Wright. Bombing Planes Aid As dawn streaked in forty-five huge bombing planes took off from the Newport haval training station to shell Ft. Wright, Ft. Michie and Ft. Terry. The fenders relied on anti-air-craft itteries at the three forts and ty-sever planes grouped at Tru- ail field, state airport at Groton, to meet the attack. Working in co-ordination ■were thirty light cruisers and destroyers, six submarines and two mine sweepers—the Blue fleet—under command of Rear Admiral T. C. Hart. No Decision on Victor Later in the day, while air, land and sea defense forces were busy “shelling” the active bombers, the real test was to come. Admiral Brumby’s fleet was to make its attack, attempting to “destroy” the guns of the forts and cover up a landing operation. Wednesday morning, the Blacks will attempt to capture New London and the nearby submarine base. After the attack a critique will be held at Ft. Wright to study the problems encountered. No decision will be given, however, as to which side won. Candy consumption in the United States amounted to 1,387,000,000 pounds in 1928.
