The City of San Francisco,
sleek UP luxury train, slammed
into the rear of the halted City
of Los Angeles with a roar which
sounded like someone screaming"
to one of the survivors.
The impact crunpled portions
of the two modern trains into
what looked like a huge tomato
can squashed almost flat, with
bodies and parts of bodies just
Lying around"
The City of San Francisco was
laundering across the snowswept,
rolling desert about three miles
west of this small southwestern
Wyoming town, so miles north
east of Salt Lake City 1t plowed
its way through a snowstorm
which already had dumped eight
inches of snow on the ground Ten
minutes ahead ran the City OF
Los Angeles. Both were behind
their schedules. The 200 odd
passengers aboard both trains
were getting ready for lunch.
Then the City of Los Angeles
halted on the line for a block
signal. At 1882 am. (MST) the
City of San Francisco hit the last
car of the Los Angeles with a
thunderous rending of metal The
three unit diesel power plant of
the second train went through
the last car like a plowshare and
crushed four other cars. All cars
of the second train leaped off
the tracks but remained upright
Thomas E. Sharp, owner of
radio station KFSD in San Diego,
was sitting in a compartment of
the City of San Francisco. He
was drinking coffee.
The coffee flew out of my
hand and the conductor flew into
the room," Sharp reported. He
explained that the conductor was
standing in the aisle outside his
doorway.
Alex Henetz of Cheyenne, Wyo.,
a postal clerk, was riding in a
coach three cars back of the
San Francisco power units.
Everything was running as usual
when there suddenly was terrif-
ic roar and sound like some
one screaming" he said. Il guess
that was the steel being torn
apart"
Henetz said he rushed outside
and helped a woman from the
top of the shattered wreckage.
How she was thrown out I'll
never know he said.
A bible also was thrown into
the snow beside the carnage A
woman picked it up. Nearby lay
a "zoom-ray gun" the toy of some
child.
The snow let up as rescue OPP
erations began. 1t was a foot deep
near the wreck; drifts nearby
were deeper.
Reports of the dead began COM
ing out of Wyuta, the Wyoming
Utah border community which
was the precise site of the wreck.
Five were reported dead; then
eight, then IL.
Charles Wirbin, fire chief in
Utah's Davis county. drove an
ambulance to the scene. Parts of
legs an arms were lying around.
They had to jack up a freight
car to get the body of one man. =
he reported.
A freight train, standing on a
spur beside the main line when
the crash occurred, was jounced
by the collision. Several of its
cars overturned.
Assistance was summoned to
the crash from as far away as
Salt Lake City. One ambulance
from hill Air Force Base near
Ogden, Utah, crashed into a, rock
cliff about 80 miles from the
scene. No one was injured.
Two hours after the wreck, two
Union Pacific freights collided
north of Laramie, Wyo. No re-
ports of injuries were received.

Test Road Of Rubber
Holding Up Well in
Baltimore Experiment
By the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Dec. 22-The rib
bonS of concrete that carry Amer
lean traffic from coast to coast
may some day turn into rubber
bands.
Highway engineers in at least
13 States and some parts of Can
ada are keeping a critical eye on
experimental strips of rubber
roads"
A 2,000-foot stretch of test road
was laid Is months ago in Balti-
more. Today the highway engi-
neer's Office terms the rubber
asphalt road the best we've got"
Supporters of the rubber-and-
asphalt mix clasm such roads pro-
vide a surface that is smoother
and more resistant to skidding.
They contend that because of the
elasticity. rubber roads resist the
destructive expansion and con-
traction brought on by tempera-
ture changes.
Test Road Holding Up"
Deputy Engineer William L.
Ch1lcoate says the Baltimore test
road is holding up we'll" after
two summers and one hard winter
OF suburban thoroughfare use.
Mr.. Chilcoate, who took charge
OF the project after its inception,
said the test road was constructed
in this fashion:
The entire strip was laid out
over a section of old pavement
that had concrete base with
brick surfacing. Abandoned street.
car tracks were left in place.
The roadway was levelled with
asphaltic- binder and an
other course of binder was placed
over the entire road to an approx
mate depth of one inch.
Sections of standard sheet as
phalt pavement topping were
poured at either end of the test
strip to provide a comparison
under identical traffic conditions,
Laboratory Tests Each Year.
Between those strips the rubber
mix topping was laid. The propor-
ton of rubber used was 5l2 per
cent to the weight of asphaltic ce-
ment required.
Laboratory tests are to be con-
Quoted each year to determine the
hardness and elasticity of each
piece of the test strip. The tests
will be made in the highway
engineers laboratories under con-
trolled conditions.
Mr.. Chilcoate says a rubber
road replacing a standard asphalt
road with life span of 20 years
would have to last about Is years
to be economically desirable.
He puts the construction cost
OF rubber-mix roads at 81 per cent
higher than the standard asphalt
variety. The rubber used In the
new mix is ground natural rub
ber.
Mr.. Chilcoate says Baltimore
intends to watch it's road expert
ment for about 10 years" before
deciding whether or not to con-
vert to rubber-asphalt for all fu-
ture road construction.
