FL|ER BATTLES
BLIZZARD To
RESCUE 8
Wife, 2 Children of Financier
Marooned by Snow on
Eastern Shore

BALTIMORE, Jan. 26 GN.S).
Slanting upward into grey skies
heavily laden with swirling snow,
Capt. Charles F. Thompson, Baltt'
more aviator, took off from Cur.
tiss-Wright Field here today on a
rescue mission aimed to snatch
the wife and two small children
of o. B. Winter, New York finan'
cier, from possible starvation on
their storm-bound and desolate
Eastern Shore estate.
In response to phone call for
aid from Mr.. Winter in New York,
Captain Thompson is winging
over ITO miles of gale-laShed
Chesapeake Bay to Lands End,
the financier'S estate on the shore,
which has been almost completely
cut off from contact with the out.
side world for three days by the
storm.
There Mr.. Winters wife and
children are marooned, II miles
from the nearest settlement,
GraSonville, which itself is un.
approachable because of huge
drifts which have blocked all
highways.
Inasmuch as his wife and chill
dren planned only a short stay
at Lands End and now have
been there for several days, their
food supply must be either ex-
hausted or very low, Mr.. Winter
told Captain Thompson. He said
there was a landing field at the
estate and, if the snow had not
drifted too much, the aviator
could make q successful landing.

The completion was on Sherburn
land. in NWA SWN 10-34-6W. It
swabbed so barrels In the first Is
hours. It had plenty Of sand but
little saturation. The top Of the
sand was at 1897 with the first
saturation at 2943. The second
saturation was at 2958-2966. which
gives most OF the production. The
Ellis was at 296s and drilling con-
tinued to 1892.
