In the once proud German house
Of Hohenzollern, it was an his
torical fact that the Crown
Prince was almost always at log
gerheads with his kingly father,
associating with statesmen, politi-
cal leaders and generals who we're
in opposition to the Kings poll

when he could mount the throne

Wreck Covered With Snow and
Ice Found i'm inaccessible
California Ravine
PLANE IS SHAPELESS HULK

Crushed in the wreckage of their
Inflated plane, the bodies Of IL occu-
pants of giant air liner were found
late Monday in a bruSh-tangled ra-
vine about 20 miles northwest OF
Burbank, California.
The plane, with nine' passengers
and a crew of three, disappeared
Sunday night on a trip from San
Francisco to Burbank. Groun d
searchers came upon their grueSome
find after several hours of tortuous
climbing through ravines and over
the mountains to the spot where the
twisted wreckage of the plane was
sighted from the air.
The ship apparently struck the
bottom of ravine with terrific force,
bounced a short distance up the
slope of the gulch and slid back to
the bottom where searchers found
the shapeless hulk, scarcely resembl-
ing a plane. The nose of the ship
was smashed to pieces. Within was
the body of Co-pilot Robert Mclean.
The body of Blom hung from an
opened door. A rescue crew, includ-
ing airline officials, remained at the
scene. The problem of extricating
the bodies from the debris and car
rying them out of the valley was
acute.
So inaccessible is the narrow ra-
vine that horses cannot enter it. The
nearest road is four miles away. A
touch of grim irony was the sight OF
a Christmas wreath hanging over the
door in the passengers compartment.
A posse of searchers from the New
hall substation. of the Los Angeles
county sheriff's office was the first
to reach the scene of the tragdy.
