Usually he deals with commonplace
articles - coats, hats, shaving kits,
tennis rackets, cameras, umbrel-
las, gloves and eyeglasses.
Sometimes less ordinary item
turns up. Hunter was puzzled by a
set of false teeth found in a plane,
until the lady who had flown from
Ireland to New York frantically
phoned the airport. She was JUS
tifably afraid they might be in
India already.
American Airlines' lost and
found officials claim they can
describe the typical male air
passenger on the basis of what
he loses. His Size-38-short over
coat is covert. His 7ss hat is blue
gray. He carries reading glasses, a
vacuum-type pen and no recollec-
ton of his clothing size, labels or
the towns in which his garments
were purchased.

campaigns, the airlines work to-
gether beautifully when it comes
to missing baggage. Recently two
passengers with similar suitcases
arrived from Montreal via Colonial
Airlnes. The woman picked up
what she thought was her bag
and rushed to Pan Americans
terminal for fight to Ber-
rnuda. The man looked over the
remaining bag, notified Colonial
that it wasn't his and left for Cali
fornia by United Air Lines.
Hunter drew the major assign
ment when the lady opened her
suitcase in Bermuda and found
razors and trousers instead of cos
metics and high-heeled shoes. He
telephoned Colonial airlines and
learned they had the lady's bag. 1t
was flown to Bermuda, the other
bag was flown back to New York,
then to California, by United.

"A TRANS WORLD AIRLINE en-
ployee who spends his time chas-
ing missing baggage claims women
are far more forgetful than men.
But to Hunter, the sex is of little
concern. He handles 60 or 70 cases
each week. and to date he has been
able to find three quarters of the
missing articles. People sure are
forgetful." he mourned one after
noon recently after a tough day.
An hour later, as he reached the
front door of his Bronx home, he
felt in his pocket for a cigarette and
pulled out a small card. He'd for
gotten to punch out his timecard.

Recently Hunter found himself
