Drops From Plane; Body Is Not Found Charleston, March 2.?passenger identified from his baggage as M, D.

A search was started immediately in the Edisto rice fields over which .the 18-passenger plane was flying but late today the body had not been found. Airport officials said they entertained no hope that the passenger i might have escaped with his life. So far as could be learned, no one saw the man as he left the plane. One passenger was quoted as saying he saw the body just as it cleared the body of the door on the right sid$. The passengers said their fellowtraveler had complained of a headache earlier in the day but had shown no other signs of disturbance. He occupied a seat in the extreme rear of the cabin, and to the left side. No one saw him cross over to thd door from which he plunged through space. A. F. MacReadie, manager here for the transport company, said an exam-| ination of the passenger's baggage indicated he had recently left Havana and was on his way to Kalamazoo. R.
