 Deployed For Safety
 Canadian Mounted police de- ployed hundreds of sight seers from Moose River today - for their safe ty if for no other reason. Soon af- ter Robertson and Scadding were taken out through Reynolds shaft, police caught souvenir hunters mak- ing for the shaft, which is so dan gerous that the experienced miners risked their lives all the time they were in 1t.
 The shaft will be dynamited against the possibility of anyone ever crawling into 1t.
 At 1:55 a. m. (e.s.t9, Robertson was taken from the mprovised hos pital here, placed in an ambulance and driven two miles to a lake where a Royal Canadian air force plane waited to carry him to Hail. fax.
 It was the first time reporters had seen Dr Robertson since he was taken out of the mine shortly be- fore midnight Wednesday. He appeared weak and pale but was in gooo spirits. He raised his head little, turned his face to- ward those watching his removal to the ambulance.
 Hello boys," he said, in aweak yet cheerful voice, "how are you all"
 He was placed immediately in an army ambulance and the slow, prob ably painful, drive to the lake be- gan. The roads from the mine to the lake were muddy from heavy rains. Children Rejoice

 Friends of Dr. Robertson laid his experience to his venturesome spirit He knew little about gold mines they said, but bought the Moose River gold mine last November with Herman B. Magill. a Toronto lawyer partly as a gamble and partly as an adventure.
 Moose River, N. S., April 24-(UP) Arrangements were completed to fly Dr. D. E. Robertson to . Halifax hospital today for treatment of a stomach disorder which appeared to be the principal after-effect of his 10 foodless days in the depths of the Moose River gold mine.
 There he will join Alfred Scad- ding, who was trapped with him in the mine and who was taken by airplane yesterday to thc hospital for treatment of his swollen feet Complete recovery of both men seemed to be assured as details of their narrowing experience were re-
