(9a) BELIEVE LIGHTNING CAUSED TRAGEDY Investigation Held Into the Plane Crash in. Which Three Were Killed Winnipeg, Man., July 12--An official investigation will be held by the Air Force authorities to establish definite- ly the cause of the mysterious airplane explosion near Hillibre, Man., yester- day, which brought death to three air- men engaged on a Federal topographi- cal survey. Conflicting reports have been receiv- ed here concerning the details of the crash, but there is general opinion that the explosion occurred while the plane was hidden from view by a dense cloudbank, One theory is that the ma- chine was struck by lightning, while another is that the blast originated in the plane, The craft was travelling at an altitude of about 3,000 feet when it was observed to enter a heavy cloud- hank, A few minutes later a dull de- tonation was heard and three bodies tumbled earthward to their doom. Parts of the plane were scattered over a wide area, the engine heing found embedded 15 feet in the ground. The fuselage was reduced to matchwood and the gasoline tank, without a trace of fire, lay buckled up on a mossy knoll. At first only the body of Flight Of- ficer W. C. Weaver of Melfort, Sask., was found. His mangled remains were picked up near the shores of Lake Manitoba, The other members of the crew, A. I. Airdley, photographic me- chanic, of Moore, Man. and F. H. Wrong of the Topographical Survey Branch, Ottawa, were found in widely separated parts of the district, One of the hodies had been buried head first in a ploughed field, while the other was found in a madoa. In his hand was clutched a wisp of grass and moss, as if he had attempted to rise. The airmen were equipped with para- chutes, according to Major G. 0. John- son, officer commanding Nd. 1 wing of the Royal Canadian Air Forces. He declared that if the machine was struck by a holt of lightning that the aviators were rendered unconscious be- fore they were able to adjust their parachutes.

These Antandory and Mahafaly tribesmen, Dr. Linton found during a sojourn among them, follow a duiliqud custom of soaking their clothing in grease. He discussed their strange characteristics in a re- port made public by the Museum. Dr. Linton who has been living on the island since January, 1926, in the confidence of the tribal chiefs, has obtained a collection of wood- en pillows and has made photo- graphs ®of some of the most sacred ceremonjes of the tribes, He be- lieves himself to be the only white man ver to have witnessed the sac- man ever to have witneksed the sac- of kings, which is an annual event by the tribesmen in the mountains of Skalava, His report spoke of the apparent wealth of the tribes. 'Many of the women taking part in the ceremon- fes were laden with hundreds of dollars worth of gold jewelry," he wrote, Head hunting 1s practiced, the heads of enemies being taken as trophies and suspended from a rack outside the villages. Dr. Linton expressed amazement at the number and viclousness of crocodiles in the region, "They are so bad," he wrote, "that the women always get their wate) with a dipper on a ten-foot pole.' machine was a single-engine Vickers- Viking, one of the old "pusher" types. Surveying Work Will Go Ottawa, Ont., July 12--There \ will be no change in the plans of theNn- terior Department for mapping the forest resources of the district between Lake Winnipeg and Lake Winnipego- sis, Manitoba, as a result of the acci- dent yesterday, in which three mem- bers of the aerial expedition engaged in the work were killed, A. M. Narra- way, chief of the aerial survey of the topographical branch of the Depart- ment of the Interior stated today. The wrecked plane will be imme- diately replaced, Mr, Narraway said. Officials of the department said that while the accident was extremely re- grettable that the work was considered of first importance, and would he com- pleted this summer. The expedition quarters today, he said, were similar to other known instances where planes have heen struck hy lightning. The plane had taken off from its | hase at Lac Du Bonnet in the morning | with instructions to make a topogranhi- | cal survey of the Hillibre district.

Mr. Narraway pointed out that the accident marked the first fatality since the work of the aerial survey had been hegun five years ago. This, he added, was considered a splendid record when it was taken into account that the Canadian Government carried on aerial surveys toh greater extent than any other count¥y in the world. The safety which had attended so many flights over unmapped territory, Mr. Narru- way said, was due to the efficiency of the Royal Canadian Air Force, which looked after the planes.
