plane- over his -ship at 11 p. m.
Tuesday about t30 miles offshore

Alaska.-' ; :: .- .- t. l .
. The plane In which Don Moyle
and Cecil Allen were attempting
non-stop, flight : from Samushlro;
Japan, to Seattle would hare been
In that region at that time.
The . captain s statement was
confirmed by, others on the ship.
It was dark and misty' 'and the
sea was fairly ; calm ; when they
said they heard the hum of a plane
overhead. It wis considered im
probable. any Alaskan commercial
plane or other plane was In the
