ing planes yesterday.
Pilot Dudley Steele and Mrs.
Jranita Eloise Burns, flying low
over the rough country north of
Lake Arrowhead, were the first to
see the plane.
Their report to officials of tie
Western Air Express which owned
the missing ship, was followed by
word from Monte Shelton, W. A. +.
flier and his mechanic, II. Stages,
that they too had seen what they
believed was the wreckagc of Doless

Neither party could detect any
aigns of life around the fallen

ons led Steele to the area, had
flown alone over the section for
six days, trying to locate the air.

swing around, probably to head
back to the Mojave for landing.
