July 35. 1939, a son. PORTSMOUTH, N. July 15. feared today that the second attempt to raise the sunken submarine Squalus and its 26 dead may take even longer than the seven weeks required for the first.

The two divers who descended yesterday dropped only a short distance beneath the surface be fore they encountered a snarled jumble of cables, wires, hawsers and air lines left by the Squalus when it suddenly reared while be ing raised Thursday and plunged back to the bottom. This indicated that nearly three quarters of the 14,000 feet of air hose connected to the submarine would have to be hauled back on the heavy tug Falcon and un snarled before it can be used again. Dangerous Task A heavy ground swell prevented divers from descending 40 fathoms to the ocean floor yesterday to inspect the submarine itself to determine what damage was wrought in its latest plunge. Navy officials feared that it might have rolled over on its side, making salvage even more difficult. At least 25 or 30 exploratory dives must be made before the new survey of the $5,000,000 submarine can be completed.

Since only five to eight dives a day can be made even under favorable weather conditions, this alone may take a week. Not until this survey has- been completed can new plans to raise the Squalus be formulated. HOECKE FUNERAL DEATHS his home In Westminster, July 15, 1939. Robert Edwin Larter, aged 77 years.

C. Bittle, the only in Orange county celebrated her 91st birthday yesterday at her home at 336 South Orange street, Orange, when she held open house in the afternoon and evening to her many friends Mrs. Bittle, who crossed the plains from Arkansas when one year old in a covered wagon in the stirring days of the gold rush to California, has ho recollection, of course, of that historic journey, but she remembers well the many accounts given of it by her parents in the years that followed. Does Own Housekeeping Mrs. Bittle made all of the preparations for h6r birthday celebration herself.

She does her own housekeeping and she lives alone in a cozy bungalow. Washing and ironing have no terrors for the woman who has seen nearly a century of life in California, and she has on occasions, even offered to help a busy neighbor with her ironing. She was a gracious hostess yesterday, her silver hair coiled neatly in a and wearing a becoming and modish frock of dark blue. One 'of the many presents received by Mrs. Bittle was a framed copy of a famous painting showing a covered, wagon crossing the plains.

The living room was filled with flowers and a table was piled high with gifts. Many Adventures Mrs. Bittle has had a life filled with adventures. When the family arrived in California, Los An geles was the first home. Then a move was made to Marysville and the mining country.

The mother passed on and Mrs. Bittle was sent back to Arkansas with her two sisters, Nancy Jane and Elizabeth, going with friends by the way of Panama. The trip across the strip of land was made by mule back and Mrs. Bittle remembers details of the trip distinctly. A tree in the forest fell on her sister Jane, breaking her arm.

When the trio of little girls came back to California from Arkansas yellow fever broke out on Mrs. M. C. Bittle, the only living '49er in Orange county, held a birthday celebration yesterday at her home, 336 South Orange street, Orange. Mrs.

Bittle was assisted in serving punch and cakes to the many guests by Mrs. Wilbur Nave, Mrs. C. Ralph, Mrs. V.

E. Dwindle and Mrs. Elmer Yordy, Orange. The covered wagon train in which Mrs. Bittle traveled across the plains was attacked by Indians several times.

their boat and they had the further misfortune to be placed on the wrong boat for San Francisco after the Panama had been crossed, this time by train. The vessel they were aboard cruised for months before landing, and a young Frenchman took charge of them and restored the sisters to their father at Marysville, after the father had given them up for lost. The dramatic reunion may be imagined. Mrs. Bittle could write an interesting book of her life and with her energy and keen mentality, she may do so before another annual celebration rolls around.

At one time six generations were living in her family. Burton L. Leeper, 33, came before Superior Judge Harry Westover late yesterday charged with hit-run, and might have obtained probation, except that it had just been discovered that he recently completed a six-year prison term in Nebraska. So he went to San Quentin. The prison term made him ineligible for probation, and it might have done him little good to receive it, anyway, as Los Angeles county authorities were ready to prosecute him for stealing the car he was driving at the time the hit-run offense occurred, June 1.

Leeper had stolen the car from used car lot at Long Beach, where his three children are living, and was driving to Pomona to visit his ex-wife when he became involved in a collision with the car of John Pierson. Others Have Hearings Judge Westover sentenced him to San Quentin. Lovinia Jones, colored women, charged with a $16 robbery of George Adamski at Laguna Beach July 8, pleaded not guilty, trial being set for August 1.
