'fCyIET AVIATOR
N new REPORT
Chuknovsky Says 3 on
Ice Flow

KINGS BAY, July 20 (UP).-
The Russian aviator, Chukhnovsky,
who first sighted the Polar explor-
ers in the Malmgren walking party,
said today he was convinced there
were three men in the group at that
time and expressed surprise that
only two had been\rescued.
Chukhnovsky, who was rescued
by the Russian icebreaker Krassin
after his plane was forced down
when returning from the rescue
trip, said there was a possibility of
a mistake in his observations, but
that pictures taken at the time
would reveal the situation.
Two members of the wrecked
.Italia's crew, Captain Filippo Zappi
1ind Captain Alberto Mariana, have
been rescued by the Krassin. They
reported DIR. Finn Malmgren had
been left on the ice in dying con-
dition.
1--WE were convinced we saw three
PERSONS" Chukhnovsky said. The
aviator was accompanied by three
aides. "rThe first was standing
erect, the second was tottering and
the third man was stretched on the
ice.
"All three were tied together by
ropes to prevent falling from the
tiny icefloe, which was only 20
meters square and was surrounded
bv open water. We were greatly
surprised to learn that only two men
were rescued.
Though it is possible we mistook
bundle of garments for the third
person, we hope this will be clari-
fled through pictures we took while
cruising over the icefloe. The small
size of the floe prohibited dropping
,of supplies to the starving men,"

FANS PROMISED
LOTS OF ACTION
ON BOXING CARD

Boxing fans were discussing the
fisticuffing ability of Marcellini
Lomelli yesterday afternon when it
became known that he has been
given a return engagement at the
Arena Friday night.
Those who witnessed the battle
with Tony Escalantc at the last
Arena show were doing the talking
and while some held out for a draw
decision in that scrap, all were
ready to admit that Lomclli is a
fighter of the two-fisted type and
one who provides lots of excitement.
Lomelli pleased local fans with
his gameness and ability in his
scrap with Escalante. Tony gave
him plenty of trouble throughout
the ten rounds and once he slapped
him to n knee but no matter what
Tony did his opponent was always
boring in, once Escalantc threw a
mitt. And Tony saw and felt lot
of gloves during those ten rounds.
Dick McDaniels of Los Angeles
will furnish the opposition for the
Pasadena scrapper in the Friday
night affair. McDaniels has been
fighting for some time in the vicin.
ity of San Francisco and recently
moved his headquarters to Los An
gclcs. In two fights there he has
won just twice and lot of admira-
ton of Los Angeles fistic follow
ers.
McDaniels is apt to give Lomclli
a full evening of fight.
In the semifinal Homer Gaines
will meet a rugged scrappcr in Tom
Cleary of Los Angeles. Cleary, like
Gaines, is perhaps not the clcverest
man that ever donned glove but
he can take punishment and he can
pass it out. The result should be
six rounds of swat. Clcary how
ever, has had more experience than
the colorcd boy and is apt to set
Homer ON the canvas before the end
!. of the six rounds.
In the six rounds special Bobby
Payne of Los Angeles will meet
Lucia Oyala of Ocean Park while
the four round opener will find
Monte Hill in action with Ben Solo
