Stricken Trapper
Is Flown Home
An unexpected ducking
through the ice, resulting in ill
ness and exhaustion due to ex
posure, sent an airplane on a
mercy call for Lauritz Loberg
early this week.
Mr. Loberg, trapping with
partner Jack Cody, became ill as
the result of his icy bath. Mr.
Cody hiked to the nearest point
of communication and sent an
urgent message for a rescue
plane.
However Mr. Loberg was
nearly recovered when he ar
rived back in the Valley, and
was not hospitalized upon his re
turn. Dr. R. E. Garrett, Valley
physician, said Mr. Loberg ap

C?use of Crash
Not Established ^
It was possibly a tailspin
which wrecked a small Aeronca
on the ice of Lila lake last week
and brought about the instgnt
death of Ralph Walker and Clif
ford Kirkelie, CAA employes at
Sheep Mountain.
There were no witnesses to
the crash. However, Fred Pow
ell, CAA safety chief, said the
evidence indicates that the plane
hit with considerable force.
There is no mark which shows
that it was either taking off or
landing. The small ship hit at a
45-degree angle and tore a hole
10 feet in diameter through tjje
foot-thick ice.
The plane was demolished.
The bodies of both men, who ap
parently died instantly, were
found still inside the cabin.
