The plane which left the field yes- terday and ecrashed throygh the i in attempting to land here, was al doned last night after several el to remove it from the water had failed. It was then that Lieut. .°C.| Whitehead, pilot, telephoned a request that another plane he sent. Officials of the Zapf Fruit Pkg.

Al- though they left Northport Wednes- daynight on toot, ostensibly for their homes in Traverse City, they have not as yet reported at the company's oftice there.
