 Hal Kemp and his "Time to
 Shine" orchestra were missing
 for an hour the other day,
 which is a long time when pro-
 ducti0n men and sponsors are
 ready to put on an air show.
 The band, which was appearing
 in the afternoons at Manhattan Beach, would take fast motor launch to New York for their evening engagement. Long past the appointed time of their ar Al rival at the 42nd Street dock, there was still no launch in sight. When all were about to give up hope, Kemp and his boys, smudged from head to foot with grease, zoomed up to the dock. They had had trouble with their gas line off Coney i Island, and only the mechani-
 cal bent of Saxie Dowell had
 saved the day.
