Anchorage Pilot Walks
In, Search Abandoned
ANCHORAGE, UP) — Ken Etter,
Anchorage pilot, reached home
Wednesday night after walking
30 miles from the wreckage of
his light plane which crashed
Tuesday evening on a flight from
McGrath.
Etter’s plane crashed in a pass
through the rugged Alaska Moun
tain Range, north and west of
here. He walked into Rainey Pass
Lodge early Wednesday, report
ing his plane was badly wrecked
although he was uninjured.
His arrival halted a widespread
aerial search.
NO TEETH IN THIS CASE
BOSTON, UP)—Isaac Trinkham,
51, presented a strong defense in
municipal court when accused of
having bitten the left thumb of
George McPhee so severely the
latter required hospital treat
ment.
“How would I bite anybody?”
Trinkham asked Judge Jennie L.
Barron, and opened his mouth to
expose toothless gums.
The court continued the case.
Though t-for-the-day everyday:
Business goes where it is invited
and abides where it is well
treated.

Appeals Court Dismisses
Perjury Indictment
Against Owen Lattimore
WASHINGTON, (#) — The U.S.
Court of Appeals Thursday up
held 8-l> dismissal of the main
count of the perjury indictment
against Owen Lattimore—that he
lied in denying he was a Com
munist sympathizer or a promoter
of Red causes.
The court reinstated by a 5-4
vote two more counts which a
district court judge had thrown
out when the controversial Far
East specialist was called to trial.
But these two were accusations
which attorneys had treated as
side issues.
In Washington Lattimore’s law
yers, Joseph O’Mahoney and
Thurman Arnold, said the 8-1
vote of the court of appeals on the
major count “has destroyed any
substantial case” against Latti
more. They added in a statement:
“The remaining counts are tri
via, involving Lattimore’s mem
ory as to unimportant events in
his long career which happened
from 10 to 15 years before the
indictment.”

Cosmic Ray Project Atop
14.006- Foot Mt. Wrangell
Continues This Summer
COLLEGE, Alaska —New YoTk
University is continuing its cos
mic ray project this summer atop
14.006- foot Mt. Wrangell.
Dr. C. T. Elvey, director of the
Geophysical Institute at the Uni
versity of Alaska disclosed the
U of A made two of its physicists
at the Institute available to the
Mt. Wrangell project. They are
Philip C. Bottler and Charles R.
Wilson. Both are experienced
mountaineers and assisted with
the establishment of the labora
tory atop the mountain last sum
mer.
The Bureau of Naval Research
is supporting the project. Last
year Dr. Terris Moore, then presi
dent of the University of Alaska,
made landings on the mountain in
his private plane, demonstrating
it was possible to do so.
Later, a giant C-124 cargo plane
dropped food and equipment, in
cluding Jamesway huts for living
quarters and a laboratory.
Cosmic rays come from outer
space and are greatly absorbed by
the earth’s atmosphere. Mt. Wran
gell’s peak is above more than
40 per cent erf the earth’s atmo
sphere. The rays are more appar
ent in this rarified atmosphere
which offers better possibilities
for study.
