INSTRUCTOR'S PLANE FORCED DOWN ON ISLAND IN HARBOR

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A Coast Guard, National Guard, and police search was instituted this afternoon when it was reported that a large transport plane had dropped into Boston Harber.

The plane turned out to be that rented by David Hyde, instructor in Physical Education, who, while trying for his pilot's license, was forced down with engine trouble into a potato patch on Deer Island in the harbor.

Hyde took off again after his engine, which was clogged up with ice, warmed up. He arrived safely at Boston Airport and allayed the fears of the law enforcement agencies.
