BIG APPLE DATELINE April 4, 1919 ROGER CARLYLE, the playboy whom everybody knows -- or knows about -- is quietly leaving New York tomorrow to check out the tombs of Egypt!  You've seen what cuties ROGER has found in the nightspots.  Who can doubt he'll dig up someone -- er. something -- equally fabulous in the Egyptian sands.

CARLYLE EXPEDITION EMBARKS FOR ENGLAND April 5, 1919 Led by the fabulously wealthy playboy Roger Carlyle, the Carlyle Expedition departed this morning for Southhampton about the crack British steamship Imperial Standard. Contrary to earlier reports, the expedition will perform researches in London under the auspices of the Penhew Foundation before continuing to Egypt next month. Readers may recall the enormous party which Carlyle, now 24, gave at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel upon reaching his majority.  Since then scandles and indelicate behavior have become Carlyle's trademark, but he has never become tarnished in the eyes of Manhattenites. Members of the expedition have been reluctant to reveal their purpose in Egypt. OTHER EXPEDITION MEMBERS Renowned Egyptologist Sir Aubry Penhew is the assistant leader of the team, and in charge of excavations. Dr. Robert  Huston, a fashionable 'Fruedian' psychologist, accompanies the expedition to pursue parallel researches into ancient pictographs. Miss Hypatia Masters, linked in the past to Carlyle, will act as photographer and archivist. Mr. Jack Brady, intimate to Mr. Carlyle accompanies the group as general factotum. Additional members may be secured while in London.

CARLYLE EXPEDITION DEPARTS EGYPT July 3, 1919 Cairo (AP) -- Sir Aubrey Penhew, temporary spokesman for the Carlyle Expedition, indicated Monday that the leaders are taking ship to East Africa for a 'well-earned rest.' Sir Aubrey debunked rumors that the expedition had discovered clues to the legendary wealth of the lost mines of King Solomon, maintaining that the party was going on safari "in respite from our sandy labors." Roger Carlyl, wealthy New York leader fo the expedition, was unavailable for comment, still suffering from his recent sunstroke. Discussing that unfortunate incident, local experts declared Egypt entirely too hot for Anglo-Saxons at this time of year and suggested that the young American had not been well served by his democratic enthusiasm, rumored to have led him to personally wield pick and shovel.

IMPORTANT VISITORS July 24, 1919 MOMBASA (Reuters) -- Leading members of an American archaeological expedition arrived here on holiday from digs in Egypt's Nile Valley. Our Under-Secretary, Mr. Royston Whittingdon, held a welcoming dinner for them all at Collingswood House, where the wit of Sir Aubrey Penhew, expedition co-leader, was much in evidence. Accompanying Sir Aubrey are two Americans, youthful financier Roger Carlyle and medical doctor Robert Huston. The party leaves inland tomorrow, for Nairobi and hunting.

CARLYLE EXPEDITION FEARED LOST October 15, 1919 MOMBASA (Reuters) -- Uplands police represenatives today asked for public assistance concerning the disappearance of the Carlyle Expedition.  No word of the party has been recieved in nearly two months. The group includes wealthy playboy Roger Carlyle and three other American citizens, as well as respected Egyptologist Sir Aubrey Penhew of the United Kingdom. The expedition left Nairobi on August 3, ostenably on camera safari, but rumor insisted that they actually were after legendary Biblical treasures. Carlyle and his party reportedly intended to explore portions of the Great Rift Valley, to the northwest of Nairobi.

ERICA CARLYLE ARRIVES IN AFRICA March 11, 1920 MOMBASA (Reuters) -- In response to clues, Miss Erica Carlyle, sister to the American leader of the lost Carlyle Expedition, arrived in port today aboard the Egyptian vessel Fountain of Life. Several Kikuyu villager reports recently have been recieved concerning the punitive massacre of unnamed whites near Aberdare Forest. Miss Carlyle declaired her intentions to find her brother, regardless of the effort needed.  She brought with her the nucleus of a large expedition. Detailing agents to coordinate supply and other activities with Colony representives, Miss Carlyle and the remainder of her party depart for Nairobi tomorrow. Her companion, Mrs. Victoria Post, indirectly emphasized Miss Carlyle's purposefulness by recounting the rigors of the voyage aboard the Semite ship.

CARLYLE MASSACRE CONFIRMED May 24, 1920 NAIROBI (Reuters) -- The massacre of the long missing Carlyle Expedition was confirmed todayed by district police represenatives. Roger Carlyle, New York's rollicking playboy, is counted among the missing. Authorities blame hostile Nandi tribesmen for the shocking murders. Remains of at least two dozen expedition members and bearers are thought found in several concealed grave sites. Erica Carlyle, Roger Carlyle's sister and apparent heiress to the Carlyle family fortune led the dangerous search for her brother and his party.  She credited Kikuyu tribesmen for the discovery, though the police actually found the site. Among other expedition members believed lost are Sir Aubrey Penhew, noted Egyptologist; New York socialite Hypatia Masters, and Dr. Robert Huston.  Many bearers are also reported dead.

MURDERERS HANGED June 19, 1920 NAIROBI (Reuters) -- Five Nandi tribesmen, convicted ringleaders of the vicious Carlyle Expedition massacre, were executed this morning after a short, expertly-conducted trial. To the end, the tribesmen steadfastly refused to reveal where they had hidden the bodies of the white leaders of the expedition.  Mr. Havas, acting for the Colony, cleverly implied throughout the trial that the massacre was racial in motivation, and that the fair-skinned victims were taken to a secret location, there to suffer the most savage treatment. Miss Erica Carlyle, defeated in her efforts to rescue her brother, left several weeks ago, but is surely comforted now by the triumph of justice.
