WRECKAGE OF PLANE ?

Sydney: The possibility that two bushmen have seen the wreckage of a newspaper dleivery plane, which has been missing since September, is being considered by police.

The plane, a twin-engin-ed Lockheed-Hudson, owned by John Fairfax and SonsPty. Ltd., publisher of the "Sydney Morning Herald," was on a flight from Sydney to Taree in northern N.S.W.

Yesterday the bushmen (Jack and Frank Kirby), of Megalong Valley, in the Blue Mountains, told police that they saw a shining object about one mile south of the junction of the Cox and Jenolan Rivers.
