Four Day Search
For Two Lost Men
The fate of two men, lost for
four days in the vicinity of Kal
sin Bay, was not known until Mon
day despite the efforts of search
parties and individuals attempting
to locate them.
The two men, K. E. Brockway,
A05, and E. J. King, AN, were
with a party of six who left
the Naval Station Thurs
day, July 8, about 2 p.m. to go
fishing in the Portage Lake area.
The group drove for some distance
then began walking in. The two
men, tiring, said they would rest
and catch up with the others later.
That was the last seen of them
for several days.
The four remaining men return
ed to the station Friday morning
with both cars, after searching for,
the men. They reported them miss
ing.
Friday, a nine man search party
from the crash crew went out, but
saw no sign of them. Saturday, at
10 a.m., a hospitalman and seven
Marines were sent to* the area. At
10:30 a.m., a station aircraft, R5D,
flew over trie area? but could not
locate any trace of the men. The
crash crew party returned to the
Base at 6:30 p.m. with the same
results.
On Sunday, at 3 a.m., an addi
tional search party consisting of
ten Marines went out by a Coast
Guard UF. A communications
trailer for radio contact.was .pulled
by a Jeep to the area later in the
morning.
A truckload of men were taken
to the Saltery Cove area in case
the missing men started to walk
there.
On Monday morning, another
party of Marines went to the
Hurst ranch to get horses. It was
thought to get horses and cover
the higher areas more quickly.
A Coast Guard plane Monday
morning, making a search for the
men, spotted two men on the
beach. This turned out to be
Brockway and King. Both men
were returned to the station, non
the worse for their ordeal.

LIBRARIES IN ALASKA
GET AIR SAFETY BOOK
“Aviation Safety Discussions”
by Don M. Gretzer, will be placed
in Alaska Public Libraries, the
Federal Aviation Agency announ
ced today.
The booklet is a collection of
the Aviation Safety Discussions
which Gretzer has been issuing
since 1950, and which have become
popular throughout the United
States for the interesting way in
which they present the question
of flying safety. In collecting the
discussions Gretzer found that
they fell naturally into a dozen
definite subjects, Gretzer has col
lected the discussions into 12 chap
ters relating to the principal
causes and reasons for accidents.
“Since we cannot print these in
sufficient numbers to give them to
individual pilots,” Alien D. Hulen,
Regional FAA Administrator said,
‘‘We have asked the libraries to
put the booklet on circulation. It
is our hope that pilots, students
and any who are interested in fly
ing safety will use them as basis
for discussion meetings. We have
found that ‘bull sessions’ of pilots
are very effective in emphasizing
safety practices.”
