ROOF CAVES IN

One Injured Expected to
Live; Soldiers Aid in
Search of Cafe Ruins
For Other Victims
(By The Associated Press

Ell PASO, Tex, Nov. T.
Three men were killed and one
injured today in Juarez when a
section of the Tivoli cafe roof
collapsed when carpenters re-
moved a supporting pillar.
The dead:
Edward Jones, 38, of Tucum-
carl, New Mexico, Southern Pa
cific pile driver engineer.
Luis Yslas, 40, Juarez, car
penter.
Enrique Yslas, 18, of Juarez,
carpenter, nephew Of Luis Yslas.
The injured man was Florentino
Flores, 30, bus boy, whose home is in
Ell Paso. DR.. Andrews Villareal, who
examined Flores and gave him first aid
at Liberty hospital said the injured
man would live. His lower lip was torn,
and he probably had broken ribs and
other internal injuries, the doctor said.
The Trivoli has served in dual roles
as cafe and gambling house for years,
was being prepared for a formal open
ing as cafe Armistice night. The in
formal opening was scheduled for late
today. Bartenders were on the job and
Frank Owens and his orchestra Of Los
Angeles arrived at 2:10 p. M, ten
minutes after the roof collapsed di-
rectly over the spot where the orches-
ira would have been seated.
Soldiers with fixed bayonets drove
out the hundreds Of spectators who had
rushed into the yard, and stood guard at
the gates while infantrymen who hur-
ried from Fort Hidalgo assisted citizen
volunteers in digging in the debris for
the bodies of the men who were killed.
Because it was impossible to check
up the spectators who were in the build
ing at the time of the crash, the rescue
crews worked frantically until prac-
tically every piece Of timber and every
shovel full of dirt had been moved.
When the troops were withdrawn the
police said that they were certain no
body or injured persons remained in the
wreckage.
