They were Lieu- tenant Commander Hugo Schmidt and Lieutenant Commander Roger Ransehousen. The three departed in the dark- in Chesapeake | ched by 23 airplanes and two army blimps. Four of the planes flew over the central section of the bay, four more survey-d the eastern shore, and nine others were assigned to separate areas extending 30 miles inland from the western shore. Another plane was making a tour of all bay lighthouses for any ine formation regarding the lost men, and the remainder of the searching force was in the area about Annapo- lis. Coast guard and radio stations al- so were asked to join in the search.

G. Everett Herre of road, who was fined $2 and costs by Judge Henry P. Roche in police court lust week on the charge of violation of the statute relative to lights on motor vehicles, has given nrotice of appeal to superior court, through Attorney Monroe 8. Gor- |don. Should the case come to triat it will be watched with interest lo- cally because of Herre's contention that the cowl lights on his car were lighted when he was arrested, and 1- ccording to his interpretation of [the statute he was not guilty of a |violation because his lights were visible at a distance of 500 feet. | Herre was driving near the South ‘church when he was stopped by & |policeman who called his attention [to the fact that one headlight was out. He fussed with the wiring un- til he repaired the defect, but he was arrested, nevertheless, as were many other motorists under similar circumstances, When he was ar- raigned in court, Herre pleaded not gullty and explained that he be- lieved the statute did not contem- plate a finding of guilty in cases |such as his. The outcome of the jcase was a fine of $2 and costs, |amounting to almost $10, while |those who pleaded guilty were fined |$2 without costs.
