Four Men and Boy Are
Lost on Frisco Bay

San Francisco, Mar. 3.—(P)—Four men and a six-year-old boy in a small launch today were sought on San Francisco bay by coast guard and police while grave fears were held for their safety.

The party left the Oakland Estuary early yesterday intending to land at the Pacific city by 3 p. m. Shortly after they began their cruise, a heavy gale arose and lashed the waters of the bay into rough swells.

Those in the boat were J. Y. Bromal, San Mateo school department employee, owner of the craft; his son Bruce, 6; his two brothers, G. B. and L. S. Broman, and Edward McMullen.
