The sight was nearly too much for old friend and fellow speed-man, Guy Lombardo, orchestra leader, onetime hydroplane driver and half owner of Tempo-Alcoa. "I expected to see crumpled metal and a crumpled body," says Lombardo.

Lake Erie, following close behind, stumbled over the tangle. Lake Erie's Jockey Wally Blum was unhurt, but Arcaro was hospitalized with a concussion and sprains.

Before sinking to the bottom, Stickleback managed to surface under its own power, making it possible for all 82 crewmen to escape unhurt. Silverstein's sea lawyers cheerfully gave the submarine all the blame, and Stickleback's skipper even admitted that he had unaccountably lost power during his dive. But all the same the crewmen of the Bad Ship Silverstein would never forget that, in addition to all their other troubles, they...
