PILOT ARRIVES HERE
 SAFELY AFTER SEARCH

Stewart Adams, pilot for A R.. Brueger, local eannery operator arrived here safely yesterday after noon after being forced down when he ran out of fuel bucking head winds on a flight from Seat- tie to Wrangell.
 Overdue at Port Hardy Wednes- day by nine hours. Adams was the object of a search by the Royal Canadian Air Force following his last reported position over Comox about 40 miles north of Victoria.
 In explaining his situation to a Sentinel reporter today, Adams said that shortly after leaving the U s. border, he encountered headswinds, with gusts up to 30 miles per hour recored by his air speed indicator. His fuel, ordinar- fly sufficient to carry him to Alert Bay began to get low. He flew a. long the stormy, deserted British Columbia shoreline until at 9:35 Wednesday morning he sighted a settlement he learned later was b. AFs
 Landing. and anchoring his plane with logging chains, Adams prepared to sit out the storm. but toward evening, the three-foot seas in which he had landed, through a shift of the wind, blew up into six-foot waves and he de- cided to move his light plane a. cross the bay for better protection.
 'It took me over an hour to taxi less than a mile across the bay" Adams said. "I was blown backwards almost as fast as I made a little headway.' He sat by his plane all Wednesday night and took off Thursday morning at o. clock for Ketehikan.
 At Blinkensop he was unable to get gasoline, but borrowed Is gal Ions of naptha This he had to lug across a wide mud flat, sinking all most to his knees, to reach his plane. Blinkensop. is about 31 miles south of Alert Bay and the first word Adams was able to get out of his safety Thursday morn ing when, after taking off from Blinkensop. he circle the Bay and reported his safety.
 Besides his father in Ketchikan, Adams many WrangelP friends were deeply concerned when he was reported overdue. and it was with relief and joy that they saw his little cream and red Piper Super-Cruiser circle the town yes terday afternoon.
