Three Plane Crash Victims Found In
Good Condition After Extensive Search
ANCHORAGE, CPI — A note
found in a wrecked plane started
’ a storybok rescue of three elec
tronics experts who miraculously
survived ten chilly days and
nights in the wilderness on the
northern coast.
It all ended happily late Mon
day night when the three men,
apparently suffering only from
exposure and frostbite, arrived
safely here after an emergency
two stage airlift.
Capt. Charles Weir, Blooming
ton, Ind., the Air Force helicopter
pilot who located the men just a
few miles west of the wreckage
and brought them to Unalakleet,
said he found the following mes
sage in the downed plane Mon
day:
“SUNDAY. To whom it may
concern. Two men and I left here
this’morning afoot this day look
ing for civilization at Unalakleet.
Heading west, (signed) Parham.”
This was Jefferson Parham, 36,
El Paso, Tex., one of the Western
Electric Co. workers missing
since Sept. 26 on the wilderness
flight. The others were George
Brummett, 36, Knoxville, Tenn.,
and Joe Tomczak, 25, Detroit,
Mich.
The men were not interviewed
before being taken to a hospital
here for treatment, but the Air
Force crews of the 71st Air Res
cue Squadron understood they had
foraged for firewood some dis
tance from the wreckage, but
started out for civiliztion last
Sunday, just before the plane was
'spotted from the air. They were
found only a few miles away.
The men apparently had emer
gency food supplies and a rifle
aboard the plane, Weir said.
The helicopter had to land a
couple of times on the flight out
of the wilderness to wait out
snow showers and winds of up to
25 miles an hour.
On the flight, the men were
given emergency treatment by two
air-medics, Noel Crowson and
Percy Blatchford, an Eskimo.
At Unalakleet, the trio was
transferred by stretcher to an
amphibian pine piloted by Capt.
Joy Alleman, Bern, Idaho, and
flown to Elmendorf Air Force
Base here.
The men seemed in god spirits
despite their ordeal, Alleman
said. One even managed to crack
a feeble joke while being lifted
aboard the plane.
“It wasn’t too tough,” said an
Air Force spokesman of the res
cue squadron’s efforts. “They do
this sort of work all the time.”

Cucamonga To
Change Name
CUCAMONGA, Calif., UP> —
Cucamonga’s population of 10,
000 is talking about incorporation
and thinking of a name change at
the same time.
President Ted Vath of the
Chamber of Commerce says co
medians have made the town a
constant butt of their jokes.
One of the names under con
sideration, Vath reports, is Ar
pege — after the well-known per
fume.
That ought to slow down the
jokesters, says Vath. For awhile,
at least.
