the tolling Of the old bell, as they
answered the call to arms; for
some it was their final time to hear
the bell, for others, an initial step
to fame and glory. During World
War II, the old bell tolled farewell
to thousands of Wilmington and
southeastern warriors, soldiers.
sailors and skymen.
Shortly before the death Of the
late President Roosevelt, the old
bell probably tolled his departure
on a trip to Camp Lejeune where
he viewed troops during a war toM
Of duty.
Future Undecided
Today the old bells future is I'm
decided.
Officials for some time nave been
hearing the plea from lovers of the
old bell, to take it down from its
perch above the station concourse,
and place it On a pedestal at some
convenient place in the station
house.
There the bell lovers say, the toll
ling could be continued, and the
faithful old bell could take its
rightful place among the company
and city's other interesting museum
pieces.
Dolled Up
On the pedestal, they say, the old
bell could be really dolled up"
and could continue to toll the five
minute, and five second departure
Of trains. A commemorative pla-
que, telling the interesting parts
of the old bells history could be
made and placed under the bell,
so that travellers could read the
romance anc drama which tends
to make it a masterpiece in Will
mington.

AST0UNDS CROWDS
Woody Edmondson Flies
Plane Inverted At ESQ
Miles Per Hour

A crowd estimated at 5000 per-
sons watched breathlessly yester-
day afternoon, as Woody Edmond
son, Lynchburg, Va, air ace, flew
his inverted plane at $50 miles
per hour speeds, down the rum
ways at Carolina skyways, Peiffer
field.
Other aerial feats performed by
Edmondson included flying his
Aeronca Champion at 1000 feet
altitude, cutting the motor off,
stopping the propeller, circling the
field twice and landing.
Dangerous Stunt
He really commits himself in
this stunt, as, according to per-
sons who know their aircraft, the
motor cannot be started in the
air.
The performance, one of a series
to be given by Carolina Skyways,
lasted for about an hour, with
morning and afternoon shows. Ed
mondson's appearance was under
the sponsorship of the Wilmington
Civitan club and the airport.

Longmore, Wash, Dec. l3.-CUP) Driving rains and Snowstorms today hindered the search for a Marine transport plane missing since Tues day with 32 persons aboard.
 Veteran mountaineers climbed the rugged slopes of Mt. Rainier yesterday when new reports put the planes last position near the l4.- O00-foot mountain.
 The strom kept l4 search planes grounded. piled snow six feet high above the 2,O00-foot level on Rain- fer and flooded valleys in Central Washington.
 As earlier searches in the densely- wooded hills near Toledo, Wash. and on other mountains trimming the cascade range were abandoned, officials believed that the plane might have crashed on Painters Nisqually glacier.
 Only skeleton crews of exper- fenced mountain climbers were sent to negotiate the deep canyons ap- preaching Nisqually because Of the treacherous new snow and the deep gaping crevices.
