great globules of mineral oil
(which looks more sweaty
than sweat). Then undersea
mishap that climaxes Subma-
rine D-l is taken in a reas-
suringly even stride. Under the
unruffled direction of Lieut.
Commander Matthews (Geo.
Grent), everything goes like
clockwork. In the equalizing
chamber the crew stands chat-
tering about horseraces and
San Diego girls while water
creeps up to their waists, sub-
merges the lower end of the
subular escape hatch. Present-
ly the hatch cover is raised a
line attached to a cork buoy
shoots upward to the surface
and the men don “escape
lungs,” resembling hot-water
bags. Then with clips holding
their noses and mouthpieces
gripped between their teeth,
crew in alphabetical order fol-
low the escape line by easy
stages to the surface.
For the one man hurt in the
crash, a chief petty officer
(Pat O’Brien) directs the low-
ering of a roomy rescue bell
which fastens over the hatch,
permits a rescue to be conduct-
ed in comfort and style. No
cineminventions, both the res-
cue bell and the escape lung
are in service in the submarine
division of the Navy, have
been developed since the S-4
and S-51 disasters.
For the absorbing technical
accuracy of the film, credit
goes to Navy-minded Director
Lloyd Bacon, son of the late
Actor Frank Bacon (Lightn-
