Deer Kill Hits
397 in Days

Al least three hundred ninety
seven doel. have been killed in Car
rett county during the first three
days of the siX-day season, it was
announced by game officials this
morning. This did not include the
third days report from Swanton,
but only three were killed there on
Tuesday
The number dropped sharply
from the total Of III for the first
day, due partly to the weather
and due to fewer hunters. Last
year for the first three days there
were 402 deer killed. An all-time
record of 500 kills was set last year
and no game officials are expect
ing anywhere near such record
this year.
Most of the deer brought in were
of moderate weight, a few pounds
ahead of last year on the average.

Wrecked Plane
Discovered In
Garrett County
Pilots Burned Body Found In
Wreckage OF Machine
On Artie Dodge Farm

The three Garrett county youths
who last week reported they
thought they heard an airplane
crash in the vicinity of Table
Rock, were not mistaken
The discovery of the wreckage
of the Pennsylvania plane was
made last Thursday morning about
II o'clock, from the air, by Ben
iamin Ulrich, 30, am assistant pro-
fessor of aeronautical engineering
at West Virginia university, Nor
gantown. and his observer, Louis
Pickett, proprietor of Morgan
town cleaning plant.
Found dead in the crashed plane
was Thomas F. Scholes, president
Of the T, f. Scholes, Inc, rail
road construction firm, of Reading,
Pa. The cockpit was burned out
and there was evidence of an eX-
plosion as debris was scattered
over a large area. Scholes, burned
beyond recognition, still had his
hand on the control wheel
Scholcs' four-placc Navion had
taken off from Reading Sunday en-
route to Girder field at Pine Bluff,
Ark. Alone, he was last heard
from at 3:18 p. M. Sunday when
he made a radio check at Martins
burg, W. Va The search started
after he failed to communicate
with Elkins, w. Va, the next
check on his flight plan.
1t was not until Tuesday night
that Sheriff Paul w. Fisher re-
ceived word from Mrs. Frank
Blamble of the Red Oak section,
telling of three boys, Lester and
Richard Soldiers and Robert Miller
who heard what they thought was
an airplanc crash in the noun
tains near Roth Rock, shortly af-
ter hearing a plane overhead
whose motor seemed to be missing.
They would have been unable to
see flames from the burning ship
due to fog and rain.
A search by local authorities and
State police on Wednesday failed
to reveal anything but as soon as
Uhich reported the approximate
location. Fisher and Trooper Rob-
ert Hcnline renewed the search in
that area. Turning east at Gncgy
Church on the Red Oak road, they
blanchcd off at the Artie Dodge
farm and secured the assistance of
Elmer Clark, tenant on the place.
The crashed ship was first
reached by Mr. Clark, while Shcr-
if Fisher and Trooper Herlinc
were not far back. Members of
the CAP mobile support unit from
Elkins, and State police from the
LaValc barracks reached the
Wrcckagc later. The ground
scarchcrs were aided by the plane
which continued to circle overhead.
Scholes was identified through
letters ii a gray gabardinc top
coat, initials on cigarct lighter
and the planes numerals.

Franco and Sa|azar
Form Common Front
In Surprise Meeting
BY the Associated Press

i MADRID, Spain, April 16.-Tht
chiefs of the Spanish and Portu.
guese governments announced
last night that they have formed
a solid front" on questions o1
Western defense-questions which
Spain soon will be taking up ir
idirect negotiations with the
United States.
The announcement was in .
communique issued after Gener-
alissimo Francisco Franco anc
Portuguese Premier Antonio de
Oliveira Salazar had held a sur
prise meeting near the Portuguese
frontier.
The announcement possibly
meant that Gen. Franco sought
Ito strengthen his hand and OBJ
tanned Portugal's support when il
comes to working out the dea.
with the United States for eco-
nomic and military aid in return
for the use of Spanish air and
naval bases.
| Portugal is a member of the
Atlantic Pact and wants Spain to
be a member too, but there is
strong feeling among many NATC
members against the Franco gov.
Iernment. Portugal has bargain
ing strength in the pact due tC
her ownership of strategic bases
such as the Azores.
The basis of the -Salazar
agreement was that the Iberian
peninsula must be considered as
la unit in strategic matters.
Perfect Agreement Cited.
The communique said Gen
Franco and Premier Salazar "were
in perfect agreement on the stra-
Itegic unity of the peninsula, as a
result of existing commitments
which implies the adoption of ade-
|quate measures for common defen-
|slve action within the general
framework Of the Western de-
|fenSe."
The peninSula'S two nations are
allied by the 1berian Pact. Port
ugal, whose chief contribution to
Western defense is slated to be
bases in her strategic mid-Atlantic
Azores Islands, has termed Spain S
exclusion from NATO a strategic
absurdity."
The two government heads met
Monday night and yesterday in
Henry lis 18th century cas.le al
.Ciudad Rodrigo, a Spanish town
of 1000 close to the Spanish
Portuguese frontier. Gen. Franco
returned to Madrid last night and
Premier Salazar to Lisbon.
Met Last Summer.
The had met last in September
1850, at Gen. frances summer
home in Galicia.
The communique said the con-
versations took place with the
usual understanding and cordial
ity'' and reaffirmed ''the position

Britain Pledges Fight
lin Event Of Attack
On European Army
By the Associated Press

LONDON, April Britain
agreed today to bind herself to
automatic and immediate war to
help any of the six nations in the
proposed European army if they
are attacked in Europe.
The six continental powers like
wise have agreed to fight for
Britain if she is hit in Europe.
The new treaty, which Britain
said had been agreed on in effect
would extend British pledges of
military aid formally to West
Germany and would strengthen
her commitment to fight off any
attack on Italy.
The new pact would take effect
when the six nations ratify a
treaty establishing the European
defense community and its uni
fled army.
Other Pledges Exist.
Britain already had promised to
help defend France. Belgium, the
Netherlands and Luxembourg
the other members of the pro-
posed EDC-under the 50-year
BRUSSELS pact. She had been
committed to aid Italy under the
2O-year Atlantic pact, but Foreign
Once officials said the new
pledge is more ironclad.
Five divisions of British occu-
patton troops in Germany also are
a practical guarantee to help
defend the Germans as long as
they remain. The new pledge,
however, would extend through
the remaining II years of the At
lantic pact-a period longer than
the troops are likely to stay.
The six countries have been
negotiating for months and ex-
pect to overcome the last of such
stumbling blocks as division of
finances and establishing a GEN.
tral authority sometime in May.
Ratification Necessary.
The treaty then will be ready
for signature, followed by the
process-perhaps long and diff
cult one-of securing ratification
by the six parliaments.
One OF the chief effects of the
British promise. however, is ex-
pected to be psychological boost
to doubtful parliaments, thus
ratification easier.
