Jet Airliner Crashes
On Takeoff at IdleWild
1912 Escape Death

NEW YORK R = A jet airliner
crashed last night seconds after
taking off in windWhipped
snoWstorm. The huge ships speed
sent it slamming across the high
way, clipping an auto and skid
ding in flames into marsh.
Of the LOG persons reported
aboard, 102 escaped death, al
though at least 26 were injured,
several critically.
The dead tentatively were iden-
titled as four of the eight crew
members three men and the
woman purser. Sixty-one of the
SO passengers aboard the four
engine airlines are residents of
the United States.
The airliner, a DC8B of Aero
naves De Mexico, was bound
nonstop for Mexico City.
Efforts of aviation officials to
launch an investigation at the
crash scene were severely handi-
capped as the heavy snowfall con-
tinued today. Scattered bits of
wreckage were picked up but
concentrated efforts were i'm
possible.
Idlewild Airport observers said
the $5-million craft had to get
aloft to clear a concrete fence al
the end of the runway. The plane
did hit a wire fence just beyond
the concrete barrier. Sections OF
the wire fence were enmeshed
in the wreckage.
The one person aboard who
might have the answer is William
B. Poe, So, of Miami, Fla, check
pilot aboard the plane. But Poe's
condition early today at ST
Joseph's Hospital in Queens was
described as critical.

Two of them elected from the
burning plane and parachuted to
safety.
The Utah Highway Patrol said
its last report from the scene
said four bodies were in the
wreckage.
There was some indication of
ficers thought the seventh man
may have parachuted, although
authorities declined comment. The
desert around the Wreckage was
being searched carefully, after the
search had been halted during
the night.
The plane was from the 92nd

Most of the women's pants nowadays
are cheap and vulgar. All the wrong people
are wearing them in all the wrong places.
They should never be worn in public -

Are kids cOT.tIISed9

A somewhat alarming note was struck
by Eloise Curtis, designer of Junior
dresses and gowns. ''In many homes" she
says, there is no longer any externally
visible difference between the sexes. A
woman donning pants subconsciously dons
a few masculine characteristics in her ap-
proach to her own baby. The baby, seeing
nothing but pants around, becomes con-
fused as to where his mother begins and
his father leaves off, -

Of ourselves, or use others
unfairly to gain certain goals,
our efforts often backfire
and we lose out in the long
run.
Perhaps the reason for
your guilty conscience is that
you really do not care for the
girls and you intended to use
them simply as a means to
an end. In other words, Peg
gy. could 1t be that you Just
wanted to become popular,
rather than to become a real
friend of the club members?
In any case, 1 suggest you
back up and start over again.
In trying to get in with a
group, or even to get a job, 1t
is only right to think about
what you can GIVE as we'll
as what you can GET from
the situation. If the girls
are nice, continue to make an
effort to be friendly, but
don't try to Steam-roller
your way into the group.

But q girl who doesn't

we had better stop dating
since this problem would

No one will ever know how
difficult 1t was for me to
stick to that decision and
give him up. 1 cried most
