1 MYSTERY IN AIR WRECK POINT REYES, Calif., Nov. 29. Wrecked on the ocean rocks near Point Reyes, a United Airlines mainliner was being pounded to pieces today in a heavy surf, while mystery still surrounded the fate of the six men and one girl who were aboard. Grave fears were heightened, however, when a telephone call was put in from the Point Reyes lighthouse to the town of San Rafael, twenty miles inland, to rush an ambulance and a -coroner to the point. Aboard the luxury liner en route from Seattle to San Francisco, when it was forced down in the ocean only forty miles North of its San Francisco goal were: Pilot Charles Stead, of Seattle; Co-pilot Lloyd Jones, of Portland, Oregon; Stewardess Frona "Bobby" Clay, of Alameda, Calif. Passengers: Philip Hart, of Portland, Oregon; Ivan B. Hefle-bower, of San Francisco; S. L. Shonts, of Spokane, Wash.; F. R. Edelstein, believed to be of Los Angeles.
