Hours passed without word of the airman who had hopped off at Harbor Grace, Newfoundland, at 11:51 "Bastern Standard Time" yesterday morning, and when the circle of 24 hours had heen completed and no news of sighting the flyer, from: sea or land, was received, grave anxiety began to take the place of pride over the intrepid adventure. Hope Persists None of the watchers along the west "coast of Ireland caught a glimpse of the Gypsy Moth. Hope continued that McDonald might have passed over his objective point in Ireland and proceeded on- ward, Question of Endurance There is a question here among aviation authorities as to the dis- tance Commander McDonald would be able to fly with the amount of gasoline he ho ' aboard anc 'he time he coul. remain in the ain Some fixed the period of time at 24 hours, which would mean that he must have already comre down somewhere, Others place the time limit at 20 hours while there are.some who ventured the helief that he could remain aloft for 85 hours.

Eastern Stan- dard Time) there had heen no xe- ports of his progress since hoppin off from Harbor Grace, Nentory - land yesterday. Unfavorable weather was reported off the Irish Coast.

St. Johns, Nfld, Oct. 18=Up to 10.30 this morning there had been no further word or sign of the Gypsy Moth plane since it left Harbor Grace yesterday. Watch was kept until after midnight and beacons were ready to be lit in the event of Commander H. C.

A quart of coffee in a ther. mos bottle, two dozen sandwiches and a mere 100 gallons of gasoline --enough only for 36 flying hours --constitute his supplies. Eighty hours in the air is the length of his previous flying experience. No Ostentation This daring pupil is Flight Com- mander H. C. MacDopald, aged only 28 years( retired officer of the British Navy. He took off Wednesday at 1.21 p.m. from Harbor Grace, with lack of osten- tation characteristically with a simplicity that gav power- ful dramatic quality to the start- ing of his exploit.
