the woods yesterday. One got lost.

and Archie Stewart, his assistant.
They started their hike from the
end of the Williams Creek rwad and
headed for Oregon Caves, 11 miles
Away. Brinson Is a forester. He car
ried Instruments. Stewart is not a
frrester. though an experienced
woodsman and hiker. He carried only
a map.
The men were accompanied by
their wives. The wives left the men
to hike while they drove around to
Oregon Caves. There they were to
pick the hikers up and transport
them home.
Cruiksharlk stuck with Brinson.
Stewart went on ahead. Brinson end
Crulkshank reached Oregon Caves
together. Stewart failed to show up.
The women had urgent business
at home. They drove home with
Crulkshank and Brinson. Then the
two men were to drive back and
hunt for Stewart. Before they started
out again they received a telephone
call saying Stewart had arrived at
Oregon Caves. They went over and
picked him up. He was quite ex
hausted. Stewart got off the trail to Ore
gon Caves. Before long he was hiking
far up the hillsides in two feet of
snow. He studied his map and work
ed his way out. He went seven miles
out of his way. He hiked from 10
a. m. to 6 p. m. He was all right
today. JSo were Crulkshank and
Brinson. So were their wives vho
