Lost & Found

British female flyers kept searching parties busy last week. Misses Joan Page and Audrey Sale-Barker, making a leisurely flight from Cape Town to England, lost themselves in low clouds over Nairobi. A stiff wind blew them off-course, crashed their plane into a boulder-studded ridge. For two days planes from Nairobi scoured the wild Kenya country, finally spotted the wreck. Meanwhile Miss Sale-Barker, searching for water, had encountered a Masai headsman, sent him to Nairobi with a note written with lipstick. Rescuers took out Miss Sale-Barker by automobile, Miss Page, whose leg was broken, by plane.

Meanwhile Lady Bailey, seasoned pilot, wife of Sir Abe Bailey, diamond tycoon, was missing in the Sahara. She had been trying to break Amy Johnson Mollison's record of 4 days 7 hr. from London to Cape Town. French army planes found her the fifth day, in desolate country southeast of Gao. She was suffering from thirst, exhaustion, influenza.
