Winds Hamper Search For Lost U S Plane

Winds up to 75 mph hampered the air and sea search for a four engine U S Military Air Transport plane with 23 aboard missing over Canada's Atlantic coast near Argentia Newfoundland. Fourteen aircraft and about a half dozen ships scoured the area after a Navy patrol plane last saw the C-4 25 minutes before it would have reached Argentia. A crewman on a Royal Canadian Air Force plane was injured as winds battered search efforts. A radar sighting followed by an explosion in the air northeast of Argentia suggested a possible crash near Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula near St Johns.
