I'd love to find the lyrics for The Noronic Disaster, written by Ellis McGrath in 1950. Can anyone drum them up?

I have notes about songs about Noronic but can't find the lyrics for any songs.
One I have heard of is by Ellis McGrath "The Noronic Disaster".
The other is by Jack Kingston and Earl Heywood "Noronic Disaster"
I don't have the words for either.
