Not Alerted

By CHINA MAIL REPORTER

The Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force had not started a new search for the missing schooner lan Crouch early this afternoon and according to latest reports they do not intend to.

Yesterday, a French ship, Les Glieres, reported a ship roughly answering to the dimensions of Jan Crouch aground on Swallow Reef in the South China Sea. And the Marine Board of Inquiry investigating, the disappearance of the schooner authorised the Royal Navy to contact air-sen rescue headquarters in Singapore to search the area.

But this morning, a Royal Navy spokesman said

Singapore that the description of the wreckage "does not seem to tit" the missing schooner.

The spokesman said, judging from the report, there was the wreckage absolutely no similarity between sighted and the Ian Crouch."

He added, the Navy had taken no action whatever. But because of the stir in Hongkong, Commodore G. D. A. Gregory had asked Singapore to make further checks. In Singapore, a RAF spokesman said no aircraft had been out because no request had been made for them to do 10.

And in Hongkong, a RAF spokesman said: "All I know Is that the RAF authorities in Singapore have not been alerted to a search."
