Accident Happens Curve Near Agent Reardons Home Sat
 urday Evening.-AII Concerned GrosvenordaIe People

An automobile collision at the cor. ner near Agent John Reardon's home in North Gr0svenordale. Saturday evening. added to the weekend ia. taltes of the state, when Normand Gaumond. age 10, was thrown from a ear driven by his father and so badly hurt that he died within a few hours after his arrival at the Day Kimball hospital in Putnam.
 The Gaumond car was starting for Webster. On the front seat were Eizear Gaumond. who was driving, and his twin boys, age ten years, Normand sitting on the outside near the door. In the back seat were Mrs. Gaumond her two daughters, ages 12 and l3, and her two year old baby which sine was ho. dng in her arms.
 Meet. Gagne Car
 An automobile driven by Joseph Gagne of North Grosvenordale was coming from Webster. Mir. Gagne did not intend to turn the corner to- ward Putnam but was going to pro- eeed straight ahead down the hill to- ward the railroad station. It was at the intersection of the two highways that the cars came together.
 The front door of the Gaumond car flew open when the crash came and Normand was thrown for a con- siderable distance striking the hard macadam roadway. He jumped up however. and 1t was not thought that he was hurt When he reached the side of the automobile he nearly col lapsed saying Go his father: Daddy you take hold of me, l cant go any further Put me back into the car." He then became unconscious.
 Doctor Summoned
 Dr. Joseph C. Sullivan of Webster was called and after making an ex- animation ordered the boys removal to the Day Kimball hospital where he soon after died
 Others were injured but not seri- . oasly. The 1 2 year old daughter had hole behind her ear and the mother was cut on the forehead The father | and older daughter and the baby were only shaken by the collision. Both cars were badly damaged. !
 Gagne was not iujured hut has been in a highly nervous state from the shock and has beeH unable to see any one since the accident and fl Is under stood has been unable ga talk. II would appear from the situation that the Gaumond car had the right of way.
 The funeral serivce for the boy who was killed was largely attended when held at St Joseph's church Wednesday morning

Euis advanced another theory that
1t Is possible Amundsen miscalculat ed
the amount of gasoline necessary for
the round-trip flight, and that in re-
turning he was forced to descend in
open water to the north of King s
Bay. Even in this case Ellis was
Z confident that Amundsen would be
able to make his way by ice to King S
Bay.
Comdr. X. Prestrud, Norwegian
naval attache at London. who accom-
panied Amundsen on his expedition
to the South Pole, told the Evening
Standard, that there is no reason fox
anxiety regarding Amundsen's fate.
Capt. Prestrud recalled that when
Amundsen reached the South Pole he
spent two days there making observa-
tions and fixing his position. although
he previously had been able to make
daily observations en- route to the
Pole. He said he thought Amundsen
would desire to spend several days
making observations at the North
Pole before he would feel sufficiently
sure OF his position to be ready to re-
turn.
dispatch from Copenhagen to the
Evening News quoted Col. Laug Coch,
chief OF the Danish Air Service, and a
noted Arctic explorer, as saying there
Is nothing disquieting in the lack of
news from Amundsen. Col. Coch said
he thinks it's possible Amundsen might
have continued bis flight to Alaska,
Notwithstanding previous statements
that it is impossible.

Of it is straight up. To accomplish
he three-mile climb requires two and
a half hours of toll. some labor for a
team of horses, and even saddle
horses seldom make the heavy grade
under two hours.
Two Autos Reach Top.
Only two automobiles have ever
been known 10 reach the top, and
before going down their drivers were
obliged to chain large trees to their
rear axles to prevent a too sudden
descent. Upon reaching the foot both
cars promptly went to repair shops
for new gears and new brakes. To
the traveller who makes the ascent
by the old d-fashioned horse and wagon.
however, there is spread out before
his eyes one of the most awe-inSpir-
ing sights in this country. and as the
delegates reached the summit this aft
ernoon they fairly shouted the praise
of the scenery. On one side the
mountain tumbles abruptly off into
the Shenandoah Valley: on the other 1t
rolls away across an undulating sea
OF ragged peaks that are to comprise
the remainder of the proposed park.
More than a score of the pilgrims
to this garden spot of unspoiled
wilderness had a rather nerve-racking
taste of the fury of the elements on
their ascent this afternoon. When
they were about half way up a
thunderstorm broke with tremendous
force and the teams and riders were
obliged to seek shelter among the
towering trees. 1t was a hazardous
retreat, the lightning flashing and
crashing through the forests with
inceSsant cannonading.
Snond AnxiouS IiuuteS
Although there were no accidents.
both those on the road and those al
ready safe IN Skylan spent an anxious
half hour and the hazard those in
the woods were obliged to take was
proved few minutes after the storm
passed. The first team to turn the
next bend in the road found 1t block
ed with a huge oak that had been
snapped within a few feet of the
ground by a bolt of lightning. 1t
would have crushed any team or
riders that might have been under 1t.
Before the caravan could proceed II
was necessary TO send riders from the
summit with axes and chains to cut
and drag the obstruction from the
road. ...s...
AS a result, il was well after
o'clock before the teams arrived at
their destinations, and many OF the
delegates were drenched by the rain
that had beat through the curtains on
the wagons. The outstanding slogan
of this conference is a State park
every hundred miles. There are hun
dreds of spots throughout the country
which are too small for national
marks. but which would make ideal
links, where the tourists
could camp overnight in the Wilds.
but at the same time be assured OF
ample protection from maraudinS ami
mails and men. 1t is hoped that TINS
may develop a plan where
by a. motorist travelling from one ma
tional park to another could reach
such a camping site within a short
DAYS ride and thereby make his jour
ley a real out-of-d doors vacation.

nothing alarming in his failure to re-
turn TO his base In "a hours. as origi-
nally planned. Earl Rossman, a pho
tographer, who lived in Amundsen's
supply hut at Wainwright, Alaska,
thought that Amundsen's thorough
ness was probably responsible for the
delay.
IF he has found a new continent
he will bag 1t so thoroughly that no
body will be able to question it, Ross
man said.
Others feared a forced landing, in
jury to eithehr the planes or men, or
both, or some accident In either land
ing or taking off for the return. 1t
was pointed out, however, that the
expedition carried sufficient food for
a month, and that at the expiration OF
that time the party should De In terri
tory WHARF it. could kill northern
game. Rifles and ammunition for this
contingency were carried in the
planes.
Believes Alaska Goal.
Bernon S. Prentice, brother-in-law Of
LINCOLN Ellsworth, believed the planes
would land in Alaska. Mr.. Prentice
said he felt no concern because of the
delay and that he expected no word
until tomorrow. Amundsens desire to
find new lands would probably lead
him to steer for Alaska, Mr.. Prentice
said.
This view was shared by Vilhjalmur
Stefansson and other explorers, al
though dispatches from Nome, the
Alaskan capital, threw doubt on the
proba bility of Amundsens aiming for
the American peninsula.
No concerted plans for a relief party
have been made, but the American
expedition of Comdr. Donald MacMil-
Ian is leaving Boston for the Arctic in
June and the United States Navy
dirigibles Los Angeles and Shena ndoah
may be utilized in case Of necessity.
Comdr. Macmillan already has ex.
pressed his intention of going to the
rescue, provided there is a call.

Persons Close to Amundsen Feel No
Alarm at DeIay

NEW YORK, May % C0.-Mingled
expressions of pessimism and opti-
mism are voiced by explorers and
aviators here regarding the fate Of
the Amundsen-EllsWorth polar expe-
dition. The Norwegian explorer, his
American hacker and their four COM
panions have not been heard from
since they left Spitzbergen for the
pole in two airplanes last Thursday
afternoon.
Rumors are afioat in Oslo, the Nor
wegian capital. that Amundsen has

has been received in official quarters
there from the north.

HOPE FOR s POLAR
FLYERS is WANING;
GALE STiRS ARCTIC
Continued from First Page)

Reports from the United States that
the United States Navy dirigible air
snip Shenandoah or Los Angeles
might be pressed into service to
search for the explorers have aroused
the keenest interest.
No Cause for Anxiety.
So far it is the general opinion here,
however. that there is no immediate
cause for anxiety. Many Norwegian,
other Scandinavian and English au-
thorities say it is probable the party
reached the Pole and that Amundsen
now Is awaiting favorable weather
conditions before attempting to return.
Sir John Scott Kettle, for many
years secretary of the Royal Geo
graphical Society and recognized as
an authority on matters relating to
the Arctic, told the Associated Press
To-Day that Amundsen had the great
est confidence that there is land in
the vicinity the North Pole. Sir
John said he believed that If Amund-
sen has found this land he undoubted-
iy mas descended to make a thorough
investigation.
Sir John expressed the opinion that
such an attempt would be extremely
hazardous, but In view of Amundsen's
long record of Arctic exploration he
declared that If any explorer could
land at the pole and return safely
that man is Amundsen
In connection with the reports of
proposed rescue flights by American
dlrlgibles, the opinion was expressed
In scientific circles that should there
be no news of Amundsen within the
next rev days such a relief expedition
would be OF the greatest value.
Dirigibie Needed.
1t was pointed out that if Amundsen
and members of the party should be
forced to attempt to travel afoot on
a return trip from the North Pole at
this season they would be faced by
great stretches Of open water and
floating drift ice and would have the
greatest difficulty in reachin~ Green.
iand' which Is the nearest land A
dlrisiole airship, unhampered by con-
ditions OF surface ice or water, could
cover large areas of territory and
easily locate the foot travellers at a
long distance away, it was believed
by scientists here.
Other men here who have had
Arctic experience continued to agree
that there Is every possibility of
Amundsen returning safely.
The Evening News quoted Capt. G..
Ellis. who piloted the airplane of the,
University of Oxford's Arctic expedi
ton to within a few hundred miles of
the North Pole last year, as saying:
Il am sure Capt. Amundsen is safe"
Ellis maintained the theory that
Amundsen never expected to be able
to return from the Pole by air. He
believes Amundsen landed on the
water at some open place or in a
lane" between ice fields, got his food
and provisions on the nearest field,
abandoned the flying boats, land at
this moment, is probably on his jour.
ney back across the ice

solid land between the North Pole
and Spitzbergen. There is not a living
