Tor the past three days five of the fiyers from the Cleveland airport have hunted over this territory without find- ing any clews to_the missing fiyer’s fate, ‘They hold firm'to the belief that Nelson | and his plane will be found somewhere | not far from the Bellefonte-to-Cleveland | route, but admitted the possibility he | might have been driven far off by storm and perhaps crashed in Lake Erie or | even in Canada. Col. Lindbergh left shortly before mid- night from Valley Stream, Long Island, in the face of adverse weather and set his course along the Bellefonte-Cleve- land route. Love arrived here from St. Louis yesterday to take off with the Cleveland squadron of searchers today. Paul Collins, general superintendent of the National Air Transport Co., em- ployers of Nelson, came from Chicago to Join Wesley L. Smith, divisional super- intendent of the company, in directing the hunt. Collins and Smith charted the por- tions of Pennsylvania and Ohio into sectors of one square mile each and as- | signed each of the 15 searching planes a certain number of squares to thor- oughly blanket the area.

The Cochranton area also drew the combing of State highway patrolmen and farmers on the strength of the re- port of three men that they heard a plane crash about 2 o'clock last Mon- day morning, half an hour before Ncl- son was due in Cleveland. They said ~they had not investigated the matter because impassable roads had prevented them from obtaining newspapers and information that a pilot was missing until late yesterday. The other thres territories had been searched previously without result, but were checked again today regardless. The country around Andover, in the northwestern corner of Ohio, is particularly impenetrable. Although the search was in its fourth day today, N. A. T. officials still believe they vnuld find Nelson, whom they scarcely dared hope was still alive. somewhere between Bellefonte and Cleveland. His fellow flyers pqinted out that his past d ess against storms indicated that he would have attempted to battle it out on hiS regular route rather than veer off in some other direction. | TECy | Lawyer Sues Dolores Del Rio.
