New Base Planned For ICBM In Maine
Log Pond Blasted
In Search For Boys
Missing Three Days
Crescent City (IP) Sheriff's
officers touched off a charge of
dynamite in a 50,000. square foot
log pond Saturday on the chance
that the concussion would bring
to the surface the bodies of two
boys missing" since Thursday.
But the blast produced no
trace of Timmy Turner, 6, and
Patrick Surgeon, 7' objects of
an intensive search by more than
200 persons and three blood
hounds. The pond was located within
treacherous swamp land a half
mile south of this north coast
lumbering community.
Del Norte County Sheriff Os
wald Hovgaard said deputies,
firement, police, coast guards
men, boy scouts and townspeople
had made a thorough search of
the four square-mile swamp by
starting from its perimeter and
working toward the center.
Dragging operations and skin
divers' efforts also failed to yield
"as much as a shoe," the sheriff
said.
Checking Mills
"We haven't ruled out the
swamp area and if the kids are
in there I guess there would be
little hope," Hovgaard said.
"However, we have begun
checking out some of the old
abandoned mills and refriger
ator rooms around the log
swamp area."
The sheriff said the dogs
seemed to get the scent of the
boys and head straight through
the swamp to a parking lot at
the end of Second st. in the
city where they lost it.
The boys wore only light
shirts and jeans, but authorities
said the 45 to 50 degree night
temperature would not endang-
