Such was the cataclysmic picture painted last week in Manhattan by Hans Torkel Fredrik Lundberg, a Swedish-born mining engineer and geologist of Toronto. At a meeting of the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers, Mr. Lundberg described the latest efforts to find, by newfangled electrical and magnetic prospecting, the remains of Arizona's great meteorite...
...Manhattan last week Hans Torkel Fredrik Lundberg told how he had made a complete magnetic survey of the whole Meteor Crater area. Mr. Lundberg is president of his own company in Toronto, but he is working at present for someone else, who prefers to remain anonymous.

Also along is a diver (Ralph Bellamy), who is at first more interested in his craft than in Miss Wray. The iniquitous Teuton, best actor in the cast, soon shows...
