MARBLEHEAD, Mass., UP)—A
brief but fierce thundersquall
capsized some 70 small sailboats
in Marblehead Harbor Wednes
day.
The wild, 20-minute storm

about 100 persons but for the
swift rescue operations of nearby
speedboats whose crews took
aboard the floundering yachts
men. The worst injuries suffered
were slight cases of immersion.
