Auckland, Last Night. A New Zealand airman, Pilot Officer Winton Selwood Shann, has been reported missing as the result of operations on Wednesday, according to advice received by his sister, Mission Bay. He was formerly employed by the Producers and Citizens' Co-operative Assurance Company, Ltd., Auckland. Born at Christchurch 22 years ago, Shann is the son of Mrs. N. Cooper, Belfast, Christchurch. He was educated at the Christchurch Boys' High School, where he was a prefect and had an outstanding sports record, particularly as a swimmer. On leaving school he worked in a Government office at Wellington before coming to Auckland. He gave up his Auckland position to join the air force and, after training at Wigram, left for England last April.
