NAVY LOSES HOPE
FOR BURGAW MANS
LIFE AFTER FIGHT

A letter received early this week
by T. T, Murphy, of Burgaw, sup
erintendent of Fender county
schools, confirmed the likelihood
of the loss in action of his son,
Henry Murphy, U. S. Navy tor
pedo plane pilot missing since an
air attack on a Formosa harbor
in late October.
The communication, from the
young officers squadron comman-
der, pointed out that no parachutes
were seen to open after the plane
containing the pilot and his
crew was hit by enemy anti-air-
craft fire. Navy rescue patrols
at hand found no trace of them.
