LONDON,

Twenty
German
bombing
planes
engaged
late
yesterday
in
a
raid
against
Scapa
Flow
naval
base.
Although
they
dropped
several
bombs
before
being
driven
off
by
British
anti-aircraft
and
pursuit
planes,
they
scored
no
direct
hits
on
Britisr

units,
it
was
stated.
One
armed
trawler
was
struck
by
fragments
of
a
bomb
or
anti-aircraft
shell.
Two
civilians
and
one
service
man
were
wounded.
One
of
the
German
bombers
is
believed
to
have
been
so
badly
damaged
that
it
would
be
impossible
for
It
to
reach

Other

that

to
formulating
a
scheme
for
the
raising
of
