We Deliver PS LUNDBORG RESCUED OFF ARCTIC IGE Swedish Flier Effects Land- ing in Open Water Near By uly 6 -- Lieutenant EinarPaal Lundborg, the daring Swedish aviator who rescued Um- berto Nobile on an ice floe off Foyn Island, has himself been rescued by another Swedish airman, Lieutenant Met With Disaster After Lundborg had carried Gen- eral Nobile back to King's Bay he niet with disaster in an attempt to rescue others of the five marooned His plane was overtur« ned, and he had to remain with them. A Swedish expedition set out in search for the various groups of castaways of the Nobile party, and particularly to carry ai to the men left behind near Fown Island to provision them, and to make a landing if that was found possible. Two seaplanes flew over this group and dropped supplies. Later they proceeded along the coast of North. eastland and neighboring islands, sontinwing as far as latitude 79.40 north, on the ice. Details Are Meagre At midnight the seaplanes and one Moth left their provisional base on the north of Northeastland on a second flight, and it was on this flight that the rescue of Lundborg was affected. Though details are meagre, it is understood that Lieu- tenant Shyberg, selecting open water not far from where the marooned men were encamped, managed to come down safely. He took Lund- borg aboard and returned to the steamer Quest, the vessel from which the planes were operating. Wife Overjoyed Lieutenant Lundborg's wife was overjoyed when she learned that he had beén saved from the ice floe, but her joy was restrained by ap- rehension. She was not yet able to i freely, she said, because she was sure her husband would imme- diately offer his services again for rescue work and expose himself once more to the Arctic perils, Rescue operations, it was believed here, are proceeding, and it is ex- pected that several more of the marooned men will soon be carried back .to King's Bay or some other safe territory, A man ordered some lumber from us yes. terday at half past eleven, and asked for delivery early after lunch. i At ten minutes past one he called at the yard to get a ride on the truck to the iob «his load had gone.
