Two Naval Planes That ssHop

WASHINGTON. March 29.--Four Ma
rinc Corps aviators. who left the naval
air station here early this afternoon in
two planes on the first leg Of their
flight to the Virgin Islands, had not
been heard from tonight either by
naval officers or at points in the South.
They had intended to make their first
stop at Fayetteville, N. c., $40 miles
distant, but did not put in an appear
ance either there or at Langley Field
Va, which had been considered as an
alternative stopping place in their
plans.
Inquiries at score of points where
it was thought possible they might
have landed revealed no trace of the
flyers: The only fact which served to
relieve the anxiety of officials was the
improbahiity that disaster could have
overtaken both planes simultaneously.
The first plane to leave was occupied
by Major Thomas c. Turner, chief of
Marine Corps Aviation, and Lieutenant
B. G. Bradley, chief test pilot of the
navy and Marine Corps: and the sec

Mountains and mountains arose
around them, some of them snow
crowned, and as they stood in silent
wonder, clothed in summer apparel,
their thoughts flew back to the East
and home and the many dear friends
there, and the thoughts of the cold
and snow they had endured there in
other Januarys. Lunch over they
reluctantly started down the trail,
looking across to where the earth
and sky seemed to meet, and the
placid Pacific rolling so blue and
clear. Yet, in spite of all this beau
ty and grandeur, all pledge alle-
glance to their own Atlantic and the
dear old State of Maine. Arriving
at Mrs. Cooks in time for supper,
they found Melvin Tyler, her broth
er from Indiana, and they decided
the sun set on a perfect day.
