AFTER MANY MONTHS
A BOMB EXPLODES LYING ON BED OF CLYDE * LONDON, Sept. 16. A bomb which had lain on the bed of the River Clyde since the mass German raid on the Clydeside in March, exploded to-day and killed seven men. Four tugs were moving a ship from its berth at the Clyde when the bomb exploded beneath them. Five members of the crew of one tug and a foreman and an electrician on the dockside were killed. Men handling the ship's mooring ropes were blown into the water, and others knocked over on the wharf. The blast shook waterfront buildings.
