...proposed rescue expeditions, the latest being announced last week by Explorer LaVarre. Four have actually got under way. One, financed by the American Legion, set out from the Canal Zone with lavish equipment, is now deep in the jungle in canoes. Tom Roch popped up again, went off in search by foot with another U.
