The airmen may have veered away from Belle Isle Straight and the Gulf of St. Lawrence, authori- ties said. and continued into lower Labrador.
 The photographers report to Secretary of the Navy Wilbur said that in the darkness they probably were not expecting to sight land so carly and might have passed over the coast line and proceedd inland without knowing it.
 If this happened. the experts as- serted. the airmen may have been forced down by bad weather. or crashed into the side Of a noun tain. A landing in one of the many lakes in the Labrador interior was cited as the "best chance Of sur vival' for the pair.
 Report Is Credited.
 While Canadian air force officials said the absence of government air craft over Nova Scotia Monday strengthened the possibility that the Ildlc ItpOIlt SPe1l dl Sl. -NaTy ; Ray was the Nungesser machine. they pointed out that the same plane could not have passed over both Harbor Grace and St. Mary's Bay on Monday morning due to the 600 miles distance. St. Mary's Bay lies southwest of Harbor Grace. where the plane was reported heard between 9 and 10 a. m.

INTENSIVE HUNT FOR TWO PLIERS
(Continued From First Page)

identified plane had passed over St Mary's bay. N. S.. early last Mon- day morning. Previous reports from Harbor Grace, Newfoundland, were that six persons there had heard an airplane pass over that town the same morning.
 Although Harbor Grace and St. Mary's bay are more than 500 miles apart, the organized search by radio, ships and airplanes was given new impetus as Newfoundland and the Maritime provinces are in the path laid out by Captain Nungesser be- fore he hopped of Sunday on his 3,Soo-mile flight for New York.
 Belief Is Supported
 Supporting the belief that the missing airmen may be found in some isolated point in the north eastern part of the continent. Ameri- can naval Photographers expressed tho theory that if the fliers are alive they arc probably somewhere in Labrador.
 Noting the possibility that the aviators may be found somewhere in the vast wastelands Of the region, authorities point out that difficulties of fast communication in the iso- lated sections of the country may delay word of their safety for weeks, perhaps months.
 The lobster fishermen at St. Mary's bay told newspapermen the plane they saw was heading in a westerly direction across the mouth of the Bay of Fundy, between g and 10 a. m.. Atlantic time. They offered the information on learning for the first time of the sea rch being made for the missing fliers.
 The belief that some denseIy wooded and mountainous section of Labrador may hold the secret of the lost White Bird" was based by Photographers on the assumption that the planes motor had no trou- ble. that the wind velocity took the aviators to the north of Newfound- land and that the machines alti- meter saved them from collision with tcebergs or land obstructions. If the machine did not reach tho Labrador coast, Photographers said. there was little chance that the plane would remain af1oat at sea.
 Basis Of Statement.
 Naval officials based their state n1ent on the assumption that Nun gesser and Coli. halted by fog in their southerly course. had turned further north across Newfound- and away from the ice floes and rugged land in the northern part of the region.
 Nungesser planned to change his course if weather conditions inter- fered with flying on a southerly route, and, authorities say. he may have headed inland toward the St. Lawrence river which he was ex- pected to have followed as far as Montreal where the flight was to turn toward New York.

erly entered for the Orteig prize. One of the conditions for winning the prize is that application must be made 60 days in advance and . bond posted at that time. This Lindbergh did.
 Chamberlin and Bertaud entered their application. only . few days ago, 50 even If they were success full the prize could be awarded them only if the so day clause were waived.
 At the flying fields 1t was gen. orally believed that in the event of a race. even though the single scatter should actually lose. 1t would be awarded the prize, as being the only one properly entered. Should fail. however. and and Bertaud succeed. all felt confident that the prize would be awarded the Bellanca.
 Commander Byrd has made no for the Orteig prize. His financial \backers announce that this flight will be conducted purely for scientific reasons and with no hope of prize money.

CHAMBERLAIN MAY
 START TONIGHT
(Continued from First Page)

this morning as they had expected, the superstitious breathed a sigh of relief when 1t was finally decided that none of the flights was to be begun on Black Friday"
 Chamberlin and Bertaud now plan to hop of at o'clock tomor- row morning. and it was generally believed that Lindhergh would be starting at almost the same hour, although he was noncommittal as to his plans.
 With the Bellanca fop-off set for propitious. excitement ran high , across the closely grouped Long Island flying fields all day yester- day. But the high point of the day was when Lindbergh, a blonde young giant. a former air mail pilot. dropped out of the sky after his record breaking rush across the continent.
 Made Record Time
 His time was the quickest ever
 
 was the first time a pilot had flown such a distance alone. Lindbergh's time from San Diego to St. Louis, about 1,600 miles. was IA hours. 5 minutes, and from St. Louis to New York, about $50 miles. ! hours and Is minutes. The time made by Lieutenants Kelly and Macready in their nonstop cross-continent flight in 1923 was 2s hours, 50 minutes. So great was the admira- ton reused by his two great hops across the country that the crowd at Curtiss field would not have been greatly surprised to see him fill up his gas tank and start right out for Paris. Several persons &C., tually shouted the question whether he was going on as he climbed from the cockpit of his plane.
 NO" Lindbergh replied. taking the question as seriously as it was meant. T don't feel just like set- ting off on . 35 or S6 hour hop right now"
 He showed no signs of fatigue. however. and had his plane wheeled into position under lights in ham, gar 50 that he could go over 1t. Then he strolled about. chatting with Chamberlin. Bertaud. Byrd and others, and did not retire un- til after midnight.
 Mndbergh in No Hurry
 Chamberlin and Bertaud have announced they will not let anyone get ahead of them, but Lindbergh did not indicate he was especially anxious to start ahead of them or even at the same time.
 It was generally believed, how ever. that the take-on Of the two planes will be almost simultaneous. and that both will be launched just as soon as the weather bureau says conditions are good.
 Tho special weather report was not received by tho Bellanca fliers last night until few minutes after II. It reported there still were nu- merous squalls in tho region which would have to be traversed on the first half of the journey to France. A conference of tho Bellanca pilots and their sponsors was called and after half an hours earnest discus- sion the decision was reached to postpone the attempt until one o'clock Saturday or the first day thereafter on which the weather is favorable.

Unsishtly, superfiuous hair under arms Is 50 easy to remove now that tho woman or girl who tolerates it is guilty Of an offense against good taste.
