Flare Dropped Too Soon Aviators who investigated the crash today, said the flare dropped by Capt. Morris in an effort to locate a landing spot when the oil line on his plane broke, was tossed overboard too soon after it was lighted, and as a result it failed to burn up and illuminate the field. Thousands- of persons visited the scene of the accident Thursday. Souvenir hunters gathered up pieces of the fuselage, framework and other parts of the plane until littfr was left. Representatives of the owners . of the plane were here today, trying to, locate the valuable instruments i taken from the instrument board, and other parts of the plane. The I motor and propeller were taken to Geneva yesterday and locked in the i town jail for safe keeping. It is a criminal offense to take parts of the I plane and the owners request that , the parts be returned to them at once.
