OBELISK FLOUR Gasser Brothers Met in India; Monk Missing Now, Albert Home Holiday Was Spent In Tai Mahal Halls Only Two Weeks Ago Just two weeks. ago a pair. of American transport pilots were strolling through the gleaming marble halls of the Taj Mahal.

Natives turned to look at the lieutenants and probably mentioned the resemblance, which was to be expected since one man was E. C. "Monk" Gasser and the other Albert Gasser. And as the Nashville fliers talked, "Monk" described to brother Al how his next flight "over the hump," as the cargo pilots call the India-China hop, would be his thirtieth. Hears Husband Missing Monday night Mrs.

E. Cleveland Gasser, 2305 Pierce Avenue, received a wire from the War Department stating that her husband was "missing in flight" since December 16. On the very day that Monk failed to return, Albert Gasser arrived at a Miami, airfield. His bags were full of gifts that Monk and three other Tennesseans he just happened to run across in Agra had sent home by him. The tiny ivory elephants, the silk, the exquisite table cloths that Sam Burton of Lebanon and Dake Gleaves and Jerry Jernigan of Nashville had sent by him seemed less alluring when, upon arriving in Nashville yesterday, was greeted with the news about this brother.

There was new hope, however, for Monk's wife, the former Daisy Vick of Nashville, when Albert told her how the transport fliers who make the hazardous run from India to China over Jap-held and patrolled territory go unarmed and how only a few weeks ago Jernigan was forced to bail out and was 14 days groping his way back to Allied territory. Albert Tells of Agra Meeting Then Albert, who entered the air force as a transport pilot after teaching scores of men to fly at the Nashville Flying Service which he and brothers Louie and Monk established here many years ago, told of the three-day holiday he and Monk shared in Agra. He told how at every station from here to India 1 he met men he had trained or had trained with; told how he and Mont met a Murfreesboro army nurse in the Taj Mahal, though Albert said her name had slipped his mind. "The Nashville boys looked fine," Gasser said. "They're all top pilots over there, you know.

They have plenty to eat, they're doing a great fact they only want two things, cigaret lighters and whisky." To Get New Assignment Albert has made two overseas trips, one to Russia and the latest to India. Shortly after Christmas he will report to Memphis for a new assignment. In the meantime Mrs. Gasser says that she has certainly not given up hope for Monk. "He warned me about just this sort of thing a thousand times," she said.

"Somehow he'll come out of this and he'd expect me to be brave about it." Lt. "Monk" Gasser, like all the Gasser boys, was born in Nash- CHRISTMAS SALE FRUITS--NUTS--CANDIES--GIFT -GIFT BASKETS CRANBERRIES lb. NUTS English Walnuts, Pecans lb. NEW POTATOES 4 lbs. 25c LIMA BEANS Stokely's No.
