 INTO AIR AT
 5HANGRI-LA
WAC, Two Airmen Safely Brought Out of Val-
 ley by Glider
By RALPH MORTON Associated Press Correspondent

HOLLANDIA, New Guinea, June 29.-(Delayed)-A hazel-eyed WAC and two airmen companions were snatched sensationally to safety over 10,O0O-foot mountains by glider and tow-plane in 80 minutes yester- day They had been marooned AT days in lost valley accessible only by parachute.
 Today, the same giluer-transport combination will attempt to remove an American Army Captain, movie cameraman and eight Filipino troopers who parachuted to the aid of the castaways and built the air strip that made their release pos sible.
 At least two trips will be neces- sary, and the WAC, Cpl. Margaret Hastings, 30, of Oswego, N. Y., gamely declared she'd like to go back and watch the rescue of her reS- cuers from the valley l50 miles southwest of here. But go back to reign in the valley?
 Mo- she said, with twinkling eyes and a toss of her wind-blown hair, "the native women offered to make a throne but I refused.
 What I want most is shower and a permanent wave"
 Cpl. Hastings, It. John B. Mo- Collom of Trenton, Mo, and Sgt. Kenneth Decker of Kelso, Wash, were the only survivors of plane crash that killed 20 Army personnel on the Oranje Mountain wall of the valley May 13.
 They had been on an aerial sight, seeing tour of the strange area, which has been dubbed "Shangri-la" after the James Hilton book on a Tibetan Utopia. Suddenly they found themselves-like the characters in the book--trapped in place from which there was no apparent escape.
 After the tumultuous welcome here and a luncheon of T-bone steaks, the rescued group regaled their rescuers with tales of Shangri- la, where life was idyllic but a bore.
 The natives, they said, were dark skinned people, averaging about five feet, seven inches in height, and awed at the sight of the white

Recently the f. b. l. arrested two State
department employees, naval lieutenant,
and three New Workers, connected with
the magazine "Amerasia. AS the name
indicates, the publication is largely devot-
ed to discussions Of relations between
this country and Asia.
The charge leyeled against all six is the
theft Of confidential documents" from
the State and Navy departments.
That sounds serious. Perhaps, so far
as the six prisoners are concerned, it is
serious Not having the evidence before

Police of 2Cities
Get Aged Woman
To Destination

1t required the police OF two
cities to straighten things out, but
80-year -old Mrs. Martha Starr
finally reached her destination to-
day.
Found wandering through the
sprawling South Station in Boston
yesterday, the aged woman appar-
emily had neither baggage nor
funds. Her plight attracted police,
who found in her pocket two letters
addressed to Miss Theodore Stearns.
Mrs. Starr said Miss Stearns was
her daughter, but that did not
clear up the mystery. One of the
letters was addressed to South Lam
caster, Mass, and the other to 1926
Second street Sc. Washington.
On the clue that the woman first
was seen shortly after the arrival
of a train from Washington, the
inquiry shifted here. Police learned
that Miss Stearns was the daughter
but that she lived at 223 Second
street Sc, and that she placed her
mother on train Monday.
Along the way somebody became
confused. Mrs. Starr rode the wrong
train in the right direction. Today
she was in Natick, Mass, to visit her
son, Harold, where she intended to
60 all the time.
