Officials Seek
Lost Gadgets
IRON MOUNTAIN,' Mich. Wl A
search for scientific instruments
"looted from the gondola of a
Navy high-altitude balloon ex
tended today to Chicago and Mil
waukee. About 20 per cent of the equip
ment has been recovered, ollicials
said; but the most important in
strument, a camera, is still miss
ing. The recovered articles in
clude a radio, the log book and
some records.
Otto C. Winien, president of
Ihe Winzen Researcli Corp., who
came here from Minneapolis to
direct salvage of the equipment,
said the KM is attempting to trace
some of the missing items to Chi
cago and Milwaukee.
The search extended to those
cities, Winzen said, on the theory
that they were carried away by
touvcnir hunters.
The balloon came down in a
swamp about 25 miles southeast
of hero In the Hermansvillc area
of Upper Michigan last Friday.
Most of the articles recovered
so far have been turned hi vol
untarily. Winzen said immunity from
prosecution was offered If the
items were returned immediately.
Some of the recording instru
ments were turned in by teen
agers. Others were recovered by
FBI agents and state police.
No arrests have been made and
no charges filed.
Joe Groth, a spokesman for the
Winzen Corp., said in Minneapolis
that the balloon's two-mnn crew
made arrangements for stale po
lice and the county sheriff's of
fice to make periodic checks on
the gondola, which was left in a
swamp about a mile from a high
way, lie said the guards were sta
tioned on Ihe road and "appar
ently thought no one would bother"
Ihe gondola since it was so far
back in the swamp."

Two Basin Hunters
Have "Good" Luck
It just proves once again that it
a person is going hunting he will
have much better luck if ho
makes well-planned and thorough
preparations.
Two Klamath Falls hunters did
just that. Greer Drew and Jerry
Thomas turned out on the opening
day of pheasant season with all
in readiness.
They hit the field with two ex
ceptionally well trained Brittany
spaniel retrievers, they had mad
arrangements to hunt in a pheasant-heavy
field which was practi
cally a private hunting reserve,
and they had all the other neces
sary equipment.
And ... the preparations paid
off. They came home with meat
in the pot . . . one cock pheasant
and 15 jack rabbits.
