A—14 POST AND ROGERS LAND IN ALASKA Disagree on Plans, but Weather Takes Hand and Wiley Goes Fishing. By the Associated Press. JUNEAU, Alaska, August 8 —Wiley Post and Will Rogers mildly disagreed today over plans for resuming their | flight over Alaska in Post's new red Pontoon-equipped monoplane. | Post, the round-the-world fiyer, | yearned for fishing with light tackle. Rogers, the cowboy philosopher, urged a quick takeoff for Nome, so he could “lasso a reindeer.” Inasmuch as weather forecasts were unfavorable, Rogers said he would | compromise and “let Wiley do his | fishing.” The two, flying in the plane Post has announced he will use in a flight | to Moscow, arrived here yesterday | from Seattle, a trip they made in | 8 hours and 15 minutes. To Visit Joe Crosson. It was learned from Post that he considered visiting for a short time | with Joe Crosson, an aviator with whom the round-the-world flyer be- | came acquainted during the Alaskan parts of his flights in the Summers | of 1931 and 1933. Rogers, making his first trip lo; Alaska, studied with interest a map of the territory and finally said: “I guess Wiley and me'll have to ! flip a coin to see where we go next. | Wiley's the very best man on this trip. He fills the gas tank and then we're off " Post said he had come to Juneau to see Crosson, with whom he hunted | game in the interior last year. “We are going to stay here” he said, “until we ;zet ready to take off for somewhere.” Post in Shirt Sleeves. Post was in his shirt sleeves when | he stepped from the plane, but Rogers wore a top coat over a gray suit and | shivered. He said the trip was de-| lightful. “It was cold in the plane, but warm in the motor room,” Rogers said. “We were flying over Ketchikan,” Rogers said, “and I told Wiley I thought that was a nice looking place. He said he knew a better one and so we kept coming. “He’s been to Alaska so often he| knows his way around—kind of an old settler up here.” After pushing through a throng at the airport the two were taken to the home of Gov. John W. Troy, where they were entertained at a banquet. Mrs. Post, who had been expected to accompany her husband and Rogers, remained in Seattle. Whether she would come north by boat to join her husband on a flight over Siberia to Moscow could not be learned. BOY SUES FOR $75,000 Blames Street Car for Loss of Leg in Accident.
