THE hunt for Capt. Charles Nun
gesser and Francois Coll, missing
French transatlantic flyers, went
forward today with new hope born of
a report that a crash which may
have been that of falling plane had
been heard by two workmen near Pla-
centia Bay.
Henry Collins and his son of Para
disc Sound, an inlet of the bay, said
that at 10 O'clock of Monday morning,
May 9. the day on which the Paris-to-
New York flyers were due to pass
over Newfoundland, they heard
falling object followed by an explo-
sion. A preliminary investigation
failed to disclose the cause of the
sounds.

Other persons at various points
near Conception Bay. where the
aviators might have been expected to
have first sighted the mainland, have
told of hearing a plane on the same
morning.
