STORM TOPPLES RADAR TOWER, FEAR 28 DEAD A vast air-sea search scours the angry waters of the Atlantic east of new jersey, following the collapse of a storm-battered radar tower with 28 aboard. Scenes show the search, which raised hopes when sonar detected faint tapings, and life aboard one of the string of towers which provide early warning radar protection for the eastern seaboard. Early scenes show when tower was first built. Men in mess hall or cafeteria surroundings. Medical team dispatched. Helicopter rescue. Aircraft carrier. Oil rig tower.
