Two Brothers Drowned
As Flames Sweep Boat
By the kssoeieted Press

ST. MICHAELS, Md, April 28.-
Two young brothers were drowned
yesterday in the Miles River within
a few yards of their parents who
were trying to save them from g.
burning boat during a pleasure
cruise.
State police identified the dead
children as James Baynard, 4, and
Edward, jr., 9. of st. Michaels, the
sons of Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Bay
nard.
A third brother, Kemp, 8, was
saved when the father leaped into
the water and got him back to the
boat where they hung on with Mrs.
Bayard until a rescue craft arrived.
Sheriff A. r. Carroll Of Easton
said he was told the parents placed
the missing boys on an oyster Gull
ing board and pushed it away from
the 34-foot boat, which was swept
by flames.
The board upset and the boys dis
appeared beneath the surface, the
sheriff said.

Pilots Put on Faiieues
10 Ready Andrews for
Largest JET Group
BY A. A. Hoehlinq

The Men from Mars" also
known as Jet fighter pilots-have
rolled up their sleeves and gone to
work setting up housekeeping at
their new home at Andrews Field.
These officers who pilot the fastest
planes that fly are the vanguard OF
the famed 4th Fighter Group which
has moved from Selfridge Field,
Mich. to take over the job of aerial
watchdog of the Nations Capital.
Numbering now scant few dozen
officers and 20 P-80 Shooting Star
let planes, the Group win expand
within the next few months to close
to 100 planes and about the same
number of pilots.--It will be the
largest jet group in the country.
Commanding Officer Is 81.
Almost completely indifferent to
the hazards and strain associated
with airplanes which fly at more
than $50 miles per hour, these
yound pilots are commanded by Col
Ernest H. Beverly, who at 81 is
about the Oldest man of the group.
At the moment they don't have
much time to fly. Their "old man,
Col, Beverly, is anxious to get his
groups 'home" as shipshape just
as soon AS possible.
So officers have doffed their rib
laden uniforms and put on
fatigue dress-they are cutting down
trees, painting walls, grading lawns
repairing plumbing and driving
nails.
Families to Move Here Later.
Most of them are married and
have one or two children. When
they get their groups house in order
their families will join them here.
Later they plan to build volley
ball court in the rear of their head
quarters building.
As for flying jet planes, 1t. Col
Nathan M. Abbott's views are typical
Of those of his companions.
The planes are little more difficult
to manage than any conventional
fighter plane, he says. And in the
air, he adds, the pilot has no great
sensation of speed or of the plane's
tremendous power.
What's more, the plane Is noise
less as far as the pilot is concerned,
and makes him feel he Is floating
serenely through space.
Col. Green Is Top Ace.
Col. Abbott, who was credited with
seven enemy aircraft during the
war, is married and has three chill
dren. He is 20 years old and a ma
tive of Burlington, VT.
1t. Col. Herschel H. Green, hold
er of the Distinguished Service
Cross. is the groups leading ace
His record shows 18 enemy planes
destroyed in the air and 10 on the
ground. The units record of 1,01e
enemy aircraft destroyed is said to
be the highest of any other Air
Force group. Its officers still have
no doubt that 1t is the biggest, best
and fightingest" fighter group in the
Nation
