FORBES, COOK
TO SEEK POLE
Southern Arctic Trip Plan
of Cell Mates.

By United Press
PLYMOUTH, Mass, Nov. 30.-
Col. Charles r. Forbes and DR..
Frederick Cook, until last week cell
mates at Leavenworth penitentiary,
will be companions on a flight to
the South Pole, the former director
of the Veterans Bureau announced
here today.
Colonel Forbes told the United
Press hef will leave tonight for
Washington ito forward our plans
for the South Pole project"
1.-THE purpose of the expedition,
in one sense, will be to indicate
DR.. Cook, whose discovery of the
North Pole was mistakenly dis
believed" said Forbes, who had
come here from the Kansas
penitentiary late Tuesday to visit his
93-yearzpid mother, Mrs. Charles
Forbes.
"While DR.. Cook and 1 we're cell
mates at LeaNenworth we had
plenty of opportunity to discuss our
South Pole project, and our plans
already are pretty well formulated.
Just when we will start remains
problematical in view Of the status
Of DR.. Cooks case. We will push
our plans TO early completion just
as soon as he is released from
Leavenworth."

the same time he crossed the Ohio
Indiana State line.
George Simons, farmer, found
the body and the wreckage. The
plane had fallen near the barn of
his farm and was mass of
splintered steel and wood. Fire had
not touched the machine and the
mail was intact except for one ex-
press package. Asberg's body was
badly mangled.
Mr.. and Mrs. Simons said they
heard the noise Of an airplane
motor above the farm at about 10
o'clock Tuesday night. This prob
ably was Asberg's machine as it is
calculated he passed over Kendall
vile few minutes earlier while
the storm was at its height.
