Newspaper Page TextMEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOKD, OREGON. FRIDAY, AUGUST 16. 1035. PAGE FIVK E KEPT REAL AIMS OF TRIP SECRET LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16. (AP) The real alms of Wiley Post's north western flight and Will Rogers' actual part in It still are not defi nitely known. The venture was highly charged with secrecy. The prevailing belle! here was Post was enroute to Siberia and Moscow to blaze a new air trail to the soviet capital for . aviation interests in this country. Prlends rUo believe Rogers may have been helping Post arrange and finance the flight, impelled by his close friendship 'with Post and with his love of aviation. Belief that Post's resources were limited was bolstered by the fact that the plane in which he flew was not a new one. Although the engine was new, the body was assembled from other used planes at the Lock heed Aircraft plant, Burbank. In aviation circles here, the explana tion for Post's not purchasing & new plane was that he was "not rich" and could, not afford It. Although Post's plans to fly north west and possibly on to Moscow, were known for weeks In advance, he would confirm them only to the extent of saying he was going to Alaska to hunt, or again that he expected to "kill a tiger in Siberia." The report that Rogers would ac company Post came unexpectedly. A week or so before Post was to have left Union Air Terminal, Rogers was at the hangar where Post waa hav ing his plane groomed. "Well. Wiley, maybe I'd Just better hop in and go with you," Rogers remarked. Later, however, he would not con firm any intention of accompanying post. Society and Clubs B THE DALLES. Ore.. Aug. 16.
