Army AVIATORS
LEAVE MEXICO;
REACH PRESIDIO
Colonel Wires Men Are
Safe and Plane Is Await
ing Release.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas. Aug. 81,
N)-Captain c. H. Reynolds and
Master Sergeant Gus Newland, ar
my aviators who were forced to
earth south of the Rio Grande
Saturday reached Presidio, Texas, to-
day, according to adyices received
from Camp Maria and PresiuIo.
The news Of their location came
only after Fort Sam Houston here
had dispatched two flyers in Douglas
transport planes to scour the bor-
der from Del Rio, Texas, to Tue
son, Ariz., in an effort to locate
the men, News of their arrival at
PreSidio came from Colonel G. S.
baDcock, commandant of the First
Cavalry at Maria. Colonel Babcock
wired that the men were safe and
that their plane was 30 miles up
the Rio Grande from Preside,
awaiting release from Mexico City.
Mexican soldiers, Colonel Babcock
said, were guarding the plane and
were prepared to clear a runway for
it as soon as the release is received
and minor repairs are made.
Later advices from Preside said
that the men had recrossed the
river to Ojinaga, Mexico, where
they were guests of General De La
Vega.
Advices from Mexico City said
that the men were not prisoners
and that they had not been in
jured, but the continued silence OF
the fliers themselves led staff Of
ficers here to worry about them
and fear that they might be down
in some deserted portion of the
border.
The fliers who are searching for
them were expected to- reach Maria
this afternoon from where one of
them may go to mexico to help
start Reynolds plane.

700 MILES FROM ISLAND
WHEN SOS CALL Is SENT

Honolulu, July 15.-lP)-A dispatch
picked up by the navy here from the
monoplane City of Oakland, said the
plane had four hour supply Of
gasoline instead of one hour sup
ply as it previously reported.
The second message came from the
plane soon after it had sent an sos
call giving its position as 700 miles
east and north Of Paia. Island Of
Maui, and asking planes and tugs to
rush to its rescue.
When the second call was re-
ceived at 6:20 Pacific time, the
steamer Wilhcmina. which was 200
miles from the distressed plane, had
left her course and gone to the aid
of the aviators.
Even with four-hour gasoline
supply, the chances Of the plane to
reach land were practically nil. The
nearest land was 700 miles away. A
four-hour fuel supply at the rate
they were travelling would carry them
scarcely more than $50 miles.
The sos message received by the
steamer Galway and relayed that
shin to the navy here gave the plane
position and said crush help Have
run GU! OF gasoline"
The distress message as caught by
the Wilhemina and kenowis. said
"Short of gas. May come down any
time. Enough to last about an hour.
