DOG TEAMS SEEK MISSING PILOT IN ARCTIC AREA Nome, Alas a, U) Two dog teams will mnsh through the snow drifts from the ice bound trading ship Nanuk Thursday in- search of Caxl Ben Eielson, noted aviator who took off from Teller on No vember 9 with his mechanic, Bor land, to rescue the Kanuk i crew, and has not been heard from since. The radio operator of the Nanuk reported that Siberian eskimos ar rived at the ship, saying that they heard noise of a plane overhead several days a ceo. about GO miles from the Nanuk's position near Cape North. Spurred by this infor mation, the dog loams will set out today In hopes of finding the air men Afe. On a previous successful round trip flight to the Nanuk, Eielson was forced down by inclement weather and stayed two weeks in cabin of a trader named Saraoff, thirty miles oft Cape Serdge. It is believed that because of poor visibility that has prevailed for several days, the aviator may have s?t down his Hamilton all-metal plane in the same region to await better thing conditions. Eielson hod with him sufficient rations for 30 days, as well as a stove and other necessiites for supporting life and no fears were held here for his safety. It is estimated that should the dog teams from the Nanuk sight the aviator, it will be at least four days before the news will reach civilization but there is a possibil ity that with visibility prevailing today, Eielson will be able to make a take off and may reach the Nanuk before the searchers return should his plane be undamaged.

CRASH LEADS TO NEW RULES IN NEW YORK New York (IP) More stringent regulations to govern flying over New York City may be adopted, it appeared Wednesday, as a result of the fatal crash of a plane into an uptown building.

A. building In 64th street, Just west of Central park where the pilot had headed in an attempt to make a forced landing. Police Commissioner Grover Wha- len indicated that only licensed commercial pilots with many hours of experience may be allowed to fly over the city. Reid, a private pilot since last June, was renting planes from fly ing services in order to qualify for a higher pilot's rating from the de partment of commerce. Bailie, who landed on a six story building directly across the street from tlie building where the plane was wrecked, was questioned tor hours by police to ascertain details of tlie. flight. A physician who ex amined him advised spending the night in a hospital to recover from the shock he had suffered. "Reid had a parachute, btu sup pose he was afraid to leave the plane to crash over New York. He stuck to the plane because he was that kind of a fellow," he said. At Roosevelt field, where the plane was rented, officials declared that four other pilots had flown tlie ship during the day and had pro nounced it in perfect mechanical order after landing. 27 LIVES LOST INJiDAL WAVE (Continued from page 1) tidal wave area are situated on tlie Burin peninsula within a distance of 30 miles.
