Device for Submarine
Rescue Is Success
That man entrapped in a sunken submarine can escape
and save their lives by means of a new submarine safety de
vice iyas established yesterday beyond any question when
three Navy drivers came up from the bottom of Chesapeake
Bay, from a depth of 155 feet, by using the apparatus, called
“the lung,’’ which consists of an oxygen bag and a mouth
piece attachment.
The device is the inventlbn of®
Lieut. C. B. Momsen, Navy sub
marine. expert and the men taking
the test were, besides the inventor
himself, Navy Divers Joseph lOlben
and Edward Kalimoski, of the Wash
ington navy yard.
At tho bottom of the bay th®
divers encountered a pressure of Ct
pounds to the square inch. They
went down in a diving bell which
simulated a flooded compartment of
a wrecked submarine.
Momsen was tho first to descend
and he reached the bottom of th®
bay in five minutes and five sec
onds. Putting tho device Into oper
ation he began hl® ascent to tho
surface, which took eight minutes
and St second®.
Hlben made hie ascent, in five
minutes and 315 seconds, while Kal
imoski appeared on the surface in
five minutes and 11 seconds, neither
suffering sny apparent injury. Chief
Gunner C. 1. TlbbOls and T. M. ;
Hobson, naval snginoer, who co
operated with Momsen in the Inven
tion, aided in directing tbe diving
tests.
Tho divers were said by naval
offiuere aboard tho Falcon to have
proved by their teste that the ap
paratus wss tho successful
ever devised sfnd expressed the be
lief that as a result of the test all
of the 78 submarines id the Navy
will be equipped with "innga.”
