Dan asks.

busted out of a pen in Texas where

he's crying his heart out, and Kitty

He's only fourteen, but he wants to

Filler Believed Dead
In Del. Bay Crash
Air Patrols, Coast Guard
Search Bay For Young
Army Pilot Who Crash
ed Last Saturday.

An army pursuit. plane plunged
into Delaware Bay east of Dover
Saturday and the pilot was pre-
sumed lost. Col. Ellwood r. Ques,
ada of the Air Corps announced last
Sunday.
Colonel Quesada, chief of the first
interceptOr commands information
center at Philadelphia, said the
pilot was Second Lieutenant Henry
G. Jaehning, Jr.. 28 years old. OF
Redwood Falls, MINI. No trace has
been found of the plane and the
body was not recovered.
The plane was a Curtiss P-40, of
the First InterceptOr Command. and
was on a mission at the time of the
crash, according to Colonel Quesa-
da. Army officials issued a plea
to persons living in the Delaware
Bay area who may have seen it
crash to furnish such information
to the interceptor command.
Delaware Bay boatmen said a
party of fishermen was known to
have been in the bay at the time of
the tragedy. Efforts to contact them
are being made.
Something-just what may never
be known-caused it to rocket out
of control at a high altitude and
plunge into the bay.
1T must have been going 400
to 500 miles an hour when it hit
and we do not expect to find much
of it," Colonel Quesada said.
So suddenly and completely did
the fast little ship dive from sight |
that a dozen searching planes, Coast
Guard craft and patrols ashore
were unable 10 find trace of it !
more than "a hours later.
The Delaware Bay area in which |
It struck is 40 deep deep in places.
Searchers believed the plane might |
have plummeted into soft mud at |
the bottom of the bay, there to be
anchored by the weight of its en-
CINE.
Plane observers and loOkouts in
Coast Guard craft were instructed
10 watch for any signs of "slick"
