By the Associated Press. NORFOLK, Va., May 2.—While the | tender Teal is recovering the rem- nants of the plane that crashed into Chesapeake Bay off New Point Fri- day afternoon, carrying four naval airmen to their deaths, after it had been struck by lightning 1,200 feet in the air, no more bodies wers found. The only one recovered so far is that of Machinist Mate George M. Michaels, who was in the after-section of the plane which was found and dragged to shallow water by fishermen several hours after the crash. The other men either were thrown out of the plane by the force of the impact or their bodies since have been ied away by the tide. The body of Michaels, which: was brought to the Naval Hospital here by plane yester- day, is being held pending orders for disposition. A board of inquest was held to determine cause of death, but this_being Sunday the findings had not been app: ved by higher officials, and for that reason were not made public. It is expected that Rear Ad- miral R. E. Coontz, commandant of the 5th5 Naval District will order a board of investigation to determine officially and formally, if possible, the cause of the tragedy SHIPPING NEWS Arrivals at_and_ Sailings From New York.
