Fate of Missing Beaver Trapper
SEARCH MAY BE
RENEWED SUNDAY
Volunteers TraUeL OUer
Vast Area in Hunt
for Clues.

Little hope of Immediately solving
the fate of missing beaver trapper
who disappeared in the wilderness east

iwi rivers in canoes, Drawing a bitterly
cold wind of high velocity. Total re-
suit OF their trip was the finding Of
two abandoned beaver sets at the fork
OF the rivers, but whose they were
was unknown.
IT Klancher'S trap line can be found.
it may pave the way to solving his
disappearance.
When Klancher's disappearance was
first made known game wardens, Do
lenshak, and volunteers combed the
vast wilderness area centering around
White Iron and Farm lakes. Tom
Harri, local pilot, went out daily in
his pontoon- equipped seaplane to
search for the trapper None found a
sign of any kind.
Two days before his disappearance,
Klancher had fallen into the water
and had spent the night in the woods
drying out beside a fire He was last
seen by Tony Dolenshak, caretaker a.

axe, the final day of the beaver sea-
son as he started out across the ice.
His car was found at Silver Rapids. He
vas an experienced woodsman.
The territory being searched through
S nearly 100000 acres in size, and
workers have no knowledge of Just
where in it Klancher was trapping.
