The Admiralty's communique gave no hint of the action in which the Ark Royal finally was sunk but it appeared it probably was the victim of a surprise attack.

The fact that accompanying vessels were able to take her in tow and rescue many members of her crew seemed to indicate that she and her escorts were not being attacked by any large number of enemy warships. When the Glorious went down, June 8, 1940, 1204 officers and men were lost. In mid-September, 1939, the Courageous was torpedoed in the English Channel.

She, the widow of a wealthy Kalamazoo, Mich, paper mill executive, and Doctor Torrance were married three weeks ago. He insisted that her death was no more than a "tragic accident," and this was the story he told American consular officials: They were riding in an automobile, she driving, ten miles north of Monterey Saturday night, when a cow suddenly loomed in the road.

Trying to miss the cow, she pulled the automobile into a ditch, it overturned, and she banged her head against the rear-view mirror. Taking the wheel, he started toward the hospital with her, but an ambulance met them half way. She died in the hospital a few hours later. Capt.
