The dead men were identified as Leslie Harper, a chiropractor from Aurora. Ont., who was be- lieved to have been the pilot, and farmer Wilfred Chafin of Claremont, Ont. The women were not imme- diately identified. Witnesses said the plane ap- parently became airborne in taking off from the small Locust Hill field, but crashed heavily about 100 yards from the end of the air strip and flipped over. Lumberman Alvin Wilson, who saw the crash from an ad- joining field, said: "We all ran $ over to see what we could do. But there was nothing we could ® do. . . .
