Duck Hunters Stranded On Missouri River Sand Bar
Kansas City dispatch reports Cecil Beck missing after attempting to reach duck hunters marooned on a sand bar in the Missouri River. Hunters were helped across by Beck’s brother, then Beck set out in another boat and disappeared. A strong northeast wind crippled river traffic and caused sporadic damage. Lester Osborn, 38, survived fourteen hours on a sand bar near St Joseph after a separate incident. Wind at Kansas City airport reached seventy miles an hour, delaying air service and causing property damage and injuries from flying debris.
