Anxiety Felt for Safety of
 Balloonists on Snow Trail

COCHRANE, Ont, Jan. 8. - No further word has been received from the three American Navy balloon ists who hit the snow trail from Moose Factory, northern Ontario, several days ago after their balloon had descended in the Lake Temisk- aming district at the headwaters of the Ottawa River and who were due here today. Much anxiety for their safety is felt.
 The men were lost in the north woods for four days, with virtually no food, before they were found and carried into Moose Factory on a sled. One was in his underclothing, having torn up his outer garments to bind up his feet
 A several days rest at the factory had put them all in good shape, however, according to Indian run ners who brought the news of their safe landing, and they were well equipped with food and clothing when they started the return trip to civilization on sleds.
