JAPANESEDlAD
FROM EXPOSURE
LiAHALNA. Island of Marti, T. H
-May 11.—iThe deaths of five youni
Japanese who became lost recent):
and died from exposure while on .
trip to the rim of Haleakala, tb
wbrld’s largest extinct volcanic era
ter. were the first fatalities trace*
directly to an excursion to the Ha
wallan "House of the Sun," so far a
c^n be learned.
"The boys wore in a :p rrty of
'Who left with pack animals and sm
■plies for an extensive tour of th
crater. The start from Olinda, eigh
miles from the summit was made i
3:30 in the morning. Some of th
survivors of the party said that th
Ttetims must have fallen behind th
main ibody iwlth the intention
catching up later -by using an ol
trail.
When approximately two mile
from the crater mouth the main bod
encountered a deep fog and heav
r*hi. They raided it would be to
d».*Hceroii9 jo continue to the vim an
turned back toward Olinda.' The al
|; settee of tile five boys from the party
. was not discovered until the main
I body was almost at Olinda :ig:iin.
iSearchlngV parties were immedi
ately organized. Two of the boys
,jwero fouu • after :M hours. They
I were alive but unconscious an I die d
f 'several minutPs after they had bean
I discovered. The bodies of the three
' others were found later at the 9.000
; foot elevation- T^hey were strung
•lout singly for about a quarters of a
“i mile.
I Cold, exposure and unusual weari
ness resulting from the high alti
jtude have been advanced as the
| reasons for the boys' collapse, but it
I has bcnn also said that poor physical
(condition may hnvo contributed. It
1 Is customary for 'parties to obtain
I the services of a guide for the ascent
; to the rim because fog overhangs
!|the upper reaches of the crater.
' which, at some times, is so heavy
I that it is impossible to see more
1; than five feet ahead. The party of
