D., and Earl ‘orland was solved today with discovery of their wrecked plane in an icy lagoon 90 miles southeast of North Cape, Siberia, but - absence of the bodies of the two American aviators from the wreckage kept alive a bare hope they may still be aljve. The note of optimism was extremely faint, however, as ex- perienced flyers said they believed the plane struck with such force as to kill the ayiators and throw them from the ship. It was pointed out snow might have concealed the bodies from Herve Joe Crosson and Harold Gillam, who found the wreck urday. Crosson and Gillam took off again yesterday from the fur trading ship Nanuk, icebound at North Cape, for the scene of. the wreck. Eielson and Borland were attempting a flight from Alaska to the Nanuk when they crashed. They had removed one load of passengers and furs and were returning for a second. ‘ Dog Teams to Seek Bodies With Crosson and Gillam were a representative of the Rus- sian trading company and a sailor from the Nanuk, owned by the Swenson Trading company. Dog teams preceded the plane and will join in a search for the missing flyers. Crosson first to. sight the Eielson plane signaled to Gillam and the two flyers brought their machines down near the wreck. The condition of the plane, Crosson said, indicated both its occupants were killed in the landing but he and Gillam were unable in the short time available to find any trace of the bodies. One wing of the Eielson-Borland plane was crumpled in landing, while the motor was torn out of the craft and was found 100 feet fromthe fuselage... The tail-was broken. Those who were‘en route to the wreck were to clear away the snow and make @ thorough search for the bodies of the missing-men. Because of slowness of communications at this season of the year in the north it was not expected the men engaged in the search would be able to report their progress for some time.
