U.S.S. Alexander H dmilfon N ew Polaris Submarine Goes to Sea Built at a cost of S100 million, the navyls newest submarine, the mighty nuclear-powered Alexander Hamilton, has had its first test run and soon will undergo live missile-firing practice off Cape Canaveral. The undersea craft will pack more fire power than all the bombs dropped by all nations, includ- ing two atomic bombs, during World War Il. When the new submarine becomes operational it will han- dle the new Polaris missile with 'its 2500-nautical mile range. ' The Hamilton has two crews of 147 officers and men and they alternate, one going to sea while the other enjoys leave and benefits of refresher training. Photos point up how far Uncle Sam has come in submarine construction since World War II. BIG WAKE is churned up as nuclear power plant sends the great vessel plowing through the Atlantic. Nat Kline, Boston Globe military editor, who made test run on the sub, was amazed at how smoothly all operations are carried out on the immensely compli- cated S100 million craft.
