Died. Commander Charles Herbert Lightoller, 78, survivor of the White Star liner Titanic, which hit an iceberg in 1912 and sank with 1,500 of the some 2,200 people on board; in Twickenham, England. As the ship's second mate, he told a Senate investigation committee that the luxury liner was making too much speed through a known ice field, but admitted that after the crash he had only half-filled the lifeboats because he didn't believe that the "unsinkable" Titanic was really going under. He stayed on board until the ship reared vertically for the final plunge, hung on to an overturned lifeboat until the Carpathia arrived to pick up the survivors.
