At Teller Frank Dorbandt and Ed Young were awaiting favorable weather that will permit them to take off for the Nanuk with additional supplies for the ship as well as gasoline for the flyers and dog food for the teams that will work from the vessel. Aboard a combination freight and passenger train three cabin planes were being rushed from Seward to Fairbanks with six Canadian airmen. The train left Seward at 5 p.m. yesterday, six hours after the coast guard cutter Chelan landed there. The flyers said they would be in the air headed for Nome within a few hours after their arrival at Fairbanks. It was said they would not arrive at Fairbanks before midnight tonight and probably would be able to take off tomorrow morning.
