J., May 27.—A strange tale from the hills of Mehoopany, Pa, of a hawk preying upon carrier pigeons bearing naval messages engrossed the air station and- the navy department here today. The story was unfolded in a letter from George Zimmerman, no address, which said his friend, Louis Zori Jr., killed a hawk in June. 1 1930. with a dead carrier pigeon in its claws. A message tube on the ! pigeon's leg contained a note from ] a balloonist. It was date June 17, 1930, and signed by Captain Jack- | son, and, as nearly as could be de- j ciphered, read: "Three miles east of Princeton. | Arrived in free balloon.’’ Zimmerman then quoted Zori as ,

Pa., just beyond the Pocono mountains." Captain Harry Shoemaker of the Lakehurst station said that Jackson. formerly commandant at Lakeburst. undoubtedly had madp a free balloon flight on the date mentioned. and released the pigeon to give his position sc he might be picked up. He has written asking Zori to forward him the numbers of tags found in the hawk’s nest as air station officers havp definite knowl-
