Plane Vanishes
PORT ANGB1LES, (£*>—A Sea -
tie naval reserve fighter plane and
pilot vanished last night from a
home-bound three-plane formation
over the Strait of Juan de B'uca.
A moonlight search by air and
water during the night failed to
disclose any trace of the missing
craft. The heaviest fog of the sea
son prevented any resumption of
the aerial search this forenoon.
A Sand Point naval air station
information officer said the other
pilots saw the missing craft for the
last time as it left the formation
with a message from its pilot:
‘‘I’ll see you in a few minutes.”
Paul Solka of Fairbanks, who
has been appointed district censor
is scheduled to arrive today to se*
up facilities for the taking of the

Nome.
