RIO DE JANEIRO, May 16
,GN.SO.-Grave fears were enter
tanned here this afternoon for
the safety of the New York Rio
BuenoS Aires mail and passenger
plane Buenos Aires, overdue at
Santos, Brazil today.
The plane, northbound from
BuenoS Aires, was reported to
have been forced down between
FlorianapoliS, Santa Catharina,
and Santos, and fears we're ex-
pressed that it might have landed
on the water, and sunk.
Another plane belonging to the
line hoped off from Santos this
morning to search for the missing
Ship.
It was not known here whether
or not the Buenos Aires carried
passengers.

Wales Finds Injured
Man in Road; Plays
Samaritan

LONDON, May 16 G.N.S0.-
The Prince of Wales, driving by
automobile today to the Hen
don aerodrome, from which he
was to fly to the Sandwich golf
course to witness the Walker
Cup matches, played good
Samaritan.
Coming upon a motorcycle
rider who had been injured, the
prince halted, got out and
placed a cushion from his car
beneath the injured mans
head, and held his handkerchief
to the mans wound until he
had staunched the flow of
blood.
Finding there was no imme.
diate danger, the prince con-
tinued on to the aerodrome, but
sent his car back to take the
injured cyclist to the hospital.

Blue-eyed, flaxen Diana Fish

woman golfer of her motherland
today, not the world-famous
Glenna Collett, of America. Lit

final round of the British cham

score of 4 up and 3 to play, while
Glenna, no longer the confident
player who wiped out the great
Enid Wilson and the greater
Molly Gourlay on successive days,
performed as novice.
Thus. for the second year in
succession, the cup was at the
fair Americans hands but, just
as in the 1929 final round with
Joyce Wethered, the victory had
been claimed by another.
Her defeat was the most disaS-

her bitter matches with the two

Police Believe Jealous Mate
or Lover Slew Merchant
as Woman Visited House

RICHMOND, Va, May 16. :
Harry Rohm, IS. wealthy leather
merchant of this city, who was
st and I'D j. lie hallway of
his home late Monday night. was
j the victim of either an enraged
husband or je~.,.c;ls loT;--", accord
ing to the theory on which police
are now working.
The finding of two love notes
III the vest pocket of the slain
merchant ngthened the belief
OF police that husband or l-Tcr
lid caught Rohm and a woman
in the Rohm house on tE ; night
of the murder and in a fit of mad
passion had fired the three shots
into the head and body of the
"love victim"
Woman in House
Investigators are again veering
around to the theory that d
woman seen running from the
neighborhood of the Rohm house
about the time of the murder was
on the scene Of the crime when
the slayer entered the house and
killed the merchant.
AS detectives now reconstruct
the crime, Rohm and the woman
met secretly on the night of the
murder and went to the home Of
the merchant, he knowing that
his wife and daughter would not
be home until a late hour.
AS the hour for the return of
Mrs. Rohm and her daughter
drew near, the husband made an
effort to get the woman to leave
: the house.
Lover Enters House
! It was while this argument was
goiflE on, police explain, the hus-
band or lover of the woman
e,alned entry to the home and
ldled Rohm. During the heated
a,gument that preceded the shoot
ing, police believe the woman be-
came panic stricken and fled out
IF a back door, which was later
found unlocked. 1t is this woman
who is believed to be the one seen
running on the night of the
crime.
The two notes unpunctuated
and unsigned found on the body
of the slain man, were printed
on ordinary blue writing paper
and read:
Don't you think we had a
nice time tonight dear?"
