MANISTIQUE, MI (AP)--   An Upper Peninsula park is changing its name to honor a sunken freighter and the mariners' lives lost.

Lakeview Park in Manistique held a ceremony Sunday afternoon marking its name change to Carl D. Bradley Memorial Park.

The Carl D. Bradley was in Lake Michigan more than 20 miles off the Manistique shore on November 18, 1958, when it sank in a fierce storm. All but two of its 35 crew members died.
