URGES MOTOR BUS
TRANSPORTATION

The initial parent-teachers
meeting of this school year was
held at the local school house Fri
day evening when Superintend-
ent F. Clarey Nielsen spoke OF
the work that lies ahead and said
that he viewed the term which
has just begun with optimism,
Mr.. Nielsen also dwelt for some
time upon the transportation of
school children speaking of motor
bus transportation such as is used
at Reimer and of which he has
made a considerable study. He
visited Reimer this summer, get
ting first hand information from
the superintendent there, and
recommends that form of trans
portation strongly as a quicker
and more satisfactory manner OF
getting children to and from
school. A start in the motor bus
transportation is being made here
this year, four vans of that type
being in use now. Mr.. Nielsen
also suggested that if room be
provided classes might be ar.
ranged during few months OF
each winter for young men and
women who are not otherwise en-
gagged at that time and have a
desire for more schooling, thus
making the school further service
able to the community. County

PACIFIC PLANE
HUNT STILL
FUTILE
Huge Fleet Searches All
Night-Officers Begin
to Lose Hope
BY international News Service


SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. B.
The trackless waters of the Paci-
fic continued today to hide the
fate of the naval plane PN-9, No.
1, missing more than thirty-six
hours.
"No trace-Still missing"
This was the only report from
the flotilla of naval vessels comb
ing the tropical waters 800 miles
off the Hawaiian Islands near the
point where the big seaplane was
forced to come down on her San
Francisco-to- Honolulu flight when
her gasoline gave out.
Grave fears for the safety of
Commander John Rodgers and
his crew of four has replaced OPP
timistic hopes that the plane
would be found.
A patrol plane, ID T-3, was
forced down while searching for
the missing San Francisco
Honolulu ship and today was being
LO"cU 10 pOTL.
No. 3 Turns Turtle
Meanwhile ill-luck continued to
trail the PN.9 plane No. 3, which
was forced down 300 miles off the
Golden Gate, rammed by a rescuing
destroyer and finally towed to port
for repairs.
Late last night while being towed
to Mare Island navy yard for
overhauling The giant plane turned
turtle in the channel two miles
from the navy yard.
The backwash Of a passing
vessel caused it to capsize. The
seaplane Tender Cannot was stand
ing by this morning in an effort
to salvage the plane.
Two men on board the seaplane
were rescued by the tug Navigator
All through the night submarines
and destroyers kept up the hunt
for the missing PN-9 No. 1.
Working systematically, the ocean
was plotted in squares and with
dawn today the airplanes resumed
their watch from the sky for q
trace of the plane.
Sea Reported CaImer
The Aroostook, leading the rescue
hunt, early today reported that the
sea was somewhat calmer and de
clared there was IAN excellent
possibility Of finding the missing
plane although in the same mes
sage stating that the search so fan
had revealed no trace Of the plane
The commander of the AroostooA
suggested the possibility that Com
mander Rodgers had been forced tc
bring his plane down north rather
than west of the Aroostook.
He believed Rodgers may have
attempted to double back to the
Aroostook when he found he could
not reach the Tanager, the next
guard ship.
Naval officials found consolation
in the experience OF Lieutenant
Allen p. Snody, in the PN-9 No. 3
He reported that although heavily
laden with gasoline, his plane wher
forced down landed well and rode
ia waves In excellent fashion.
