give UP HOPE FOR
HAWkER;; NC.4 DELAYED
Brave British Flyer Now Given Up
As Lost-Englne Trouble Holds
Up Americans.

st. Johns, N. f., May 21.-Hope for
the safety Of Harry G. Hawker and
Commander Mackenzie Grleve, missing
since they set out eastward through
the air on Sunday in their Sopwith
biplane for Ireland, was virtually
abandoned today by the British fiiers
preparing here to take wing in their
wake. News Of the safety Of the NC-3
after being so long on the water had
been source Of encouragement, but 1t
is recognized that the Hawker-Grieve
machine carried only q cookie hull
emergency boat as compared with the
stout hull of the American naval
plane.
Like Gustave Hammel, another pio-
neer flyer, the fate of Hawker and
Grieve probably will never be known.
Hammel, in 1918, tried to fly across
the English channel, feat now per-
formed every day. He never was heard
from after he started.
