One is Patrolman George Smith, a former soldier who was & \buddy\ of Knapp's at Mitchel field, The other is Patrolman Thomas Davis, former taxicab driver and discoverer of Panella's body, Both are expected to be important witnesses when Knapp is placed on trial in Nassau county court, It was Dsvis who found the missing taxi- cab driver's hand protruding from under a slab that had been used to conceal the body. He with other Hempstead text drivers had been searching for their missing associate. Smith bunked with Knapp and was well scquainted with him when both were in the army at Mitchel field. He will be able to assist in the ideni- fication of Knapp if necessary.
