May 11 (IP) Plans for rebuilding a "Greater Poplar Bluff" wens definitely launched today as a result of a meeting of tha city's representative business men with Mayor Berrymnn. The assertion of Governor Baker, who hurried to the storm-swept town, "that It would rise greater than before" sounded the keynote of the general feeling. The death toll of Monday's tornado remained at 80 early today, and Red Cross figures showed 350 injured, 100 seriously. Gangs of men continued busy todsy cleaning up the debris In the main business section, which bore tha full shock of the tornado. Other men were digging graves where the first of the dead were to be burled today, School Teachers Heroine.

With the confusion over, stories of heroism and personal courage were heard everywhere. The quick wit of Miss Minnie Smith, principal and teacher in the East Side school, aaved all her flock from death and all but six from Injury, A few minutes before school was to bt dismissed the children thought the sudden darkness a good Joke, Miss Smith said.

He crawled under Ms Instrument table, managed to flash the news to the St. Louis office and remained with his wire until It "went out."

Deputy Sheriff Desmond told today of a request Gray had made to him. It waa to aee Mra. Snyder, Would Like to Say Goodby. "Thing hav gone so far."

Today, however.

Gray made remarkable statement through Desmond regarding the verdict of first degree murder. "I think it was Just." Gray said.

Some are holding out hope that the airmen may have veered noth of their course in the mists over the Atlantic and come down in some remote place in Labrador.

It is possible that a fishing vessel, with no wireless to communicate such cheering news to the world, may have rescued the flyers. It Is out of the question that Nungesser and Coll still are In the air. Their fuel supply could not have held out beyond evening. With all conditions favorable, the flyers might have been able to sustain themselves for a few days In the event of a forced landing on water. Conditions Were Bad.

But the conditions were the opposite. Tha mighty Atlantic was In tha grip of storm squalls, and the atmosphere above wringing with sleet. The White Bird was the typo of plane that picked up sleet easily, and it may have been forced down to a mass of floating Ice. These conditions would minimize the protection of Nungesser's and Coil's electrically heated suits and the chnnees of their three-day rations being available for even that length of time. And If the White Bird plunged Its nose Into the sea on Its route between Ireland an Newfoundland.

Its Journey's end would be hundreds of miles from the path of any known ship at this time of the year. The craft might not. In the mist and fog. have been visible for mora than a few feet, even if It had landed In the midst of the scattered fishing boats In the Grand Banks. Captain Nungcsser's theory that the White Bird would float for a few days if favorably landed on water was not confirmed by test.

ade. Still Hopeful. Airmen have been the last to give up hope for the valiant and colorful flyers. I.t. Leigh Wade, the round-rhe-world flyer, expressed the belief that Nungesser and Coll could have found a way out of any trying situation if it were possible.

But If they came down near Newfoundland they would have "aa much chance as a mouse among cats." he added. Robert Eugene Nungeseer, brother of the French pilot, last night gave up the vigil at tha Battery, whore had stood for two day with his spy-glassea trained on the sky. He went back to his home In Washington, discouraged when the French consular offices practically relinquished all hop for hi brother sr.fety. Mother Still Confident. Captain Nungesser' aged mother In France told the Associated Press that she still was certain her son's flight would turn out a ucces.

Ho promised her he wouldn't fall. Captain Nungesser had his mother's picture pinned on the Whlta Bird' dashboard. Meanwhile th French Govern, ment and aviatkin societies yesterday planned a memorial monument to the fivers at the bajie of the Le Bourget Alrdome, wher their plane started Its Journey. The French bitterness directed toward the United States. It would appear from Ambassador Herrlck's warning and Associated Press dispatches.

Is a brother to th disappointment of the whole nation over the apparent 111 fate of Its two heroic cltlrens. There are some gestures of anti-American feeling there because of reprjsentatlone that Nungesser and Coll had not received proper advice from this country on weather conditions this sde of the Atlantic, hut the report tat that the French Government la correcting thi falae belief. Mob Stone Papers. The Weather Bureaus at Washington and New York denied todjiy that the PVench pilot had asked them for advlr. It waa pointed out In Washington, however, that urh advice la sent the French Government twlc weekly.

Buch report as were sent last week wera correct, but It ts not known If th airmen consulted them. The expression of antl-Amerl-canlsm In Paris because of false reports that Nungrsser and Coll had landed here waa shared by Paris evening papers printing thl news. The paper were atoned by angry mobs.
