CECCIONI ALIVE
STORY OF THE RESCUE (Australian and N.Z. Press Association.) (United Service) Reed 11.40 a.m. MOSCOW, Friday. Professor Samilovitch, who is in command of the Krassin, reports that when the ship was three miles from Commander Viglieri’s camp, the remains of an airplane were noticed, and then a red tent. The Italians replied to the Krassin siren’s deafening shrieks with smoke signals. “We drew close to the ice-fields on which the Italians had camped. They heartily embraced us when we climbed down our ladders to reach them. They declared that all their hopes were pinned on the Krassin, but they did not expect us so quickly.” “The rescued are Ceccioni, Viglieri, and Biagi. All are well except Ceccioni, who has broken a leg. His condition is not serious.”
