Tuesday, on the last leg of the
flight.
Aboard the plane was air ex-
press from Honolulu but no mail,
since the route had not yet been
approved by the United States
postal department.
The flying boat scared into Il
cloudless sky 'winging due west
over the calm Pacific, and when
il was 3S minutes out, Musick re-
ported the first signs of motor
trouble. He said one of the four
engines had developed an oil leak.
The plane was then near Apia
Harbor, Is miles from Pago Pago.
He said propeller brakes had
been set on the motor where the
leak was discovered, and that
they would return TO Pago Pago
for repairs. He estimated they
would land at $3.50 a. m.
The clipper swung toward Upo-
lu island, from which the ap-
proach TO Pago Pago harbor is
made. A commercial radio opera
tor at Apia, on Upolu, reported
shortly after s o'clock that he saw
the plane turn to seaward from
the island, heading toward Pago
Pago.
Just before S:27 a. H., Musick
sent the last radio report from
the crippled plane, saying he was
dumping gasoline. He signed off a
moment later.
When the flying boat failed to
reach the harbor Pan American
officials notified the naval sta
ton on Tutuila island, and asked
that a search be made.
The Avocet put to sea Tuesday
night, while a naval patrol plano
made two flights, but found nc
trace of the plane. A report that
a column Of smoke" was seer
rising over the sea was discrcdit'
ed when it was disclosed the OBJ
server was on the opposite side
of Tutuila island and could not
have seen the plane.
Early Wednesday the Avocet
steamed out again, criss-crossinG
the area between Tutuila anc
Upolu. Shortly after $50 a. M.
Samoan time, the Avocet picket
up a trace Of the oil smear anc
followed it to the wreckage.

Deadly Gas Halts
Search For Men
In Mining Blast

HARWICK, Pa, Jan. l3. (UP)
a solid wall of deadly methyne
gas today blocked rescue squads
from reaching the bodies of two
men among the ten killed when
gas exploded in the mine of the
Harwick Coal & Coke Co., yester-
day.
Eight bodies already have been
found in thrce-mile passage,
running 800 feet underground. in
which the remaining victims are
believed to be lying.
c. w. Gibbs. general manager
of the mine. said there are only
"two chances in a million" that
the missing miners might be found
alive.
Those of the 10 not immediate
ly killed when the explosion ripped
through the passage died of the
effects of carbon monoxide and
mcthync gas which poured thru
the passage when ventilation was
disrupted by the blast.

shrus. "Oh, it's the same old
story. / got fired last night. And
Pm broke. The landlady put me
out, and I was lucky to get away
with my clothes"
While Noel was trying to decide
what she could say to comfort her,
the girl went on bitterly, "Can you
believe it? There are girls in the
world who sleep in satin beds with
maids to wait on 'em, and every
thing in the world they want, and
then there are girls like me, who
don't even know whether they're
going to eat or not. Funny, isn't
it"
.sIt-doesn't seem fair" Noel adj
mitted. "Where did you work 2"
she asked.
"Taxi dancer at Nick Luigi's
club on Seventh street. It wasn't
the kind of job I wanted" the girl
went On, "but you were paid every
night, and that gave you a chance
during the day to look for the sort
of Job you did want. Only never
did find it,"
Noel had only a vague idea Of
what a taxi dancers duties were,
but she didn't ask. Instead, she
said, "Well, I haven't job either
But I'm sure I'll get one before
long"
"Then why don't you go get the
one at Nick's ?" the girl suddenly
exclaimed. BLONDES like you"
she began.
do you think I could?" Noel
asked quickly.
eff you can dance, honey, it's in
the bag" the girl said.
A few minutes later Noel kAeW
this girls simple story. Her name
was Laurie Evans, she had come
from a little country town, where
she had been brought up in an
orphanage, and had found q place
as cashier in a restaurant. For
over a year she had stayed there,
and then the place had been sold,
and the new owner put his wife IN
as cashier. Since then, she hadn't
been able to find anything except
the job at Luigi's.
I'm going right over there now
and sec if can get it," Noel said.
And if I do" she went only firmly,
you and I are going to go fifty
fifty. Now you promise to wait
here until I come back and let you
know"
Laurie looked at her, a flush on
her little freckled face. would
you honestly take me in? You
don't know a thing about me-"
"Of course I'm going to do that
very thing" Noel said with a smile.
Admonishing Laurie again to
wait right there, Noel set out at
once for Nick Luigi's club. She
found it without any trouble.
There was a gilded peacock sign
over the door, which was probably
lighted by electricity at night. But
inside it was very dismal looking,
the floor covered with crumpled
paper napkins and all kinda of
debris, the chairs appended in the
corners, and empty bottles every
where. -
| Noel as, I'd a man in soiled
white jac..et who was ambling
around with dust pan, where she
could find Mr.. Luigi.
Anoth-r minute and she was
facing him, dark man with pale
eyes. either blue or gray. and a

neat black mustache. He had a
cigar in one corner of his mouth,
and he .,oke in a surprisingly dis
tinct voice, although hardly NOV
ing his lips.
IF you can dance, baby, the jobs
yours"
Noel could dance. That was one
thing she had learned at the ex-
pensive finishing school.
She was given tryout while q
frowsy-haired man played dance
selection on a rather battered
grand piano. Both men gave mods
Of approval when Noel finished the
pretty solo dance.
Nick Luigi took the cigar from
his mouth and said in his queer.
rather secretive voice. you'll do,
kid. Don't know where you
learned to dance like that, but
you're the very sort of kid we're
looking for"
So Noel had a job for which she
would be paid fiat sum of 81
every night. She and Laurie could
have a good lunch now, and she
would take the girl lone with her
to the room on Court street.
It was surprising how the pros
pect of good meal cheered Noel
up. Two dollars seemed like real
money.
She hurried back to Front Street
park to tell Laurie the good news.
They sat there while and talked
things over, then had lunch, after
which Noel gave Laurie a dollar
out of her little store, and the adj
dress on Court street.
Laurie, who had at first regarded
Noels offer of friendship with
slight suspicion, believed in her
completely now. II never dreamed
Of finding a friend like you," she
said with tears in her eyes. But
I'll get a job and some day I'll pay
you back"
Noel gave her a friendly touch
on the shoulder. "Wen both get
jobs sooner or later. Then every
thing will be fine"
Noel knew already that she
wasn't going to stay at the Pea
cock Dance Hall any longer than
she could find something else. The
building was nice enough, in good
repair, consisting Of three stories
with the dance place on the main
floor. But it was Nick Luigi him.
self Noel distrusted. The way he
had looked at her out Of his pale
eyes gave her a feeling Of resent
ment. She didn't intend staying
there a moment longer than she
had to.
At 6 o'clock Noel went to the
De Luxe. She decided she wouldn't
venture again to Julian's Office, re-
Numbering Ruth Chester's rebuff,
and the fact that there had been
something malicious about the way
she had closed Julian's Office door
in her face.
Walking down Madison, when
Noel had about reached the cafe,
she saw Ruth Chester coming out:
of the revolving doors Of the Med
ical Arts building-and following!
her was Julian. He started to-
walk on with Ruth. Then he saw
Noel and quickly crossed the street.
Look here, young lady," he ext
claimed, taking NOeps arm, "1'vel
got something serious to say to-
you"
