Search For Two f
Missing Planes i
%
Five Canadian geese hunters
! and two California junior college
students weer sought today in
widely separated 'aerial searches.
The Canadians were more than
| 36 hours overdue on their short
| two-hour flight from a northwest
| Alberta hunting site to Edmonton,
1 Alberta. The two students also
i had been unreported since Satur
day during a flight from Stockton,
Calif., to Portland, Ore.
I nthe Canadian search yester
day, a half dozen RCAF planes
scoured the timbered muskeg be
tween , Grand Prairie, Alta., and
Edmonton, but reported no suc
cess. Low-hanging cloud forma
tions • dbscured the pilots' vision.
Listed as missing in the twin
engined Sessna were pilot Harry
Pennington and Harry Morton,
40, both of Vancouver, B. C., and
Joseph Dory, 42, James Mulcahy,
i 31, and Stewart Reid, 30, all of
