In Air Force
By the Assoeioted Press

CHICAGO, Aug. 5.-The missing
son of a prominent "blue baby"
surgeon was found yesterday in the
Air Force at Lakeland Field, Tex.
He is Edward E. Potts, 81, who
disappeared June 2 from the Uni
versity of Rochester, where he was
a premedical student on the honor
list. DR.. Willis J. Potts of suburban
Oak Park, said he had no idea why
his son left except that he may have
worked himself into a state of COM
plete exhaustion.
Besides his studies, young Potts
corrected student papers and was
doing research for the Atomic
Energy Commission.
His father, a surgeon on the staff
of Childrens Memorial Hospital,
made public plea last week for his
sons return. About to undergo
surgery himself, DR.. Potts wanted
the youth by his side.
Young Potts was located at the
Lakeland base by a reader who
recognized him from newspaper
picture. His mother talked with him
by telephone and confirmed the
identity
She quoted him as saying, Il was
tired and fed up with it all. Flying
was always my first love-"
He studied flying at a Rochester
aviation school,
