CRASH

OOutlluCu EEum EISl II age
duction Center at Wilkes-Barre,
was stunned by news. Thirty
one of the young men had
passed through the center.
Il was with those fellows all
day from the time they arrived
on chartered buses from Easton
and Bethlehem until they left
for the airport" he said. Il
worked with them, 1 talked
with them. interviewed them
and calmed their apprehen-
SionS."
Two West German immi-
grants we're among the victims.
Hartmut Kutnick, 81, and
Helmut Petratschek, "a, lived
in PasSaic, N. ].
Mrs. Helmut Honcenger said
the two men had come to Pas
sale together last May and
wanted to become American
citizens.
Mrs. Honcenger said both
we're glad to be entering the
Army. Hartmut wanted to be-
come an engineer and Helmut
a paratrooper, she said.
Yesterday they were so
happy" the woman wept.
Probe Launched
Federal aviation officials
were checking into the charred
ruins of the airliner.
The investigators sought to
pinpoint the cause of the en-
gine trouble and the reported
landing gear difficulties that
forced the pilot of the crippled
Imperial Airlines four-engine
Constellation to turn away
from Byrd Field after making
one landing pass.
E. J. Averman of Miami,
head of the airline, came to
Richmond Immediately to aid
in the investigation.
He said he had talked to the
crew that had flown the plane
on a previous flight and had
been advised the aircraft then
functioned perfectly.
1t was the worst plane
crash in Virginia history,
with fatalities far exceeding
the toll of so in the crash of
a Capital Airlines Viscount at
Holdcroft on January 18. 1860.
The last big crash near here
occurred in 1946 when 81 per-
iShed in the crash of a Viking
Air Transport Co. plane.
Under Army Contract
The Imperial Constellation,
one of three Imperial aircraft
under contract to the Army
to haul recruits, had left New
ark, N. j., at 6:22 pm. 1t
stopped at the Wilkes-Barre-
Scranton, Pa, Airport and at
Baltimore to pick up addi-
tional recruits destined for Fort
Jackson, S. c., for basic train
ing.
The Army said 20 inductees
and six or seven" enlistees
boarded the plane at Newark,
81 at Wilkes Barre Scranton
Airport and II ut Baltimore's
Friendship International Air
port.
The Federal Aviation Admin
istration said the plane devel-
oped engine trouble about 10
miles west of Richmond and
headed for Byrd Field, just east
of the city limits, for an emer-
gency landing.
Witnesses at the airport said
it first flew over the field at
an altitude of only 700 to 800
feet and seemed to be operating
on only two engines-both on
the same side of the plane.
1t made one stab at a runway
but, the FAA said, did not land
because of trouble with it's
landing gear. 1t circled away to
the south and then, on the
return approach, crashed into
the woods. moving down trees
as it headed for the ravine. The
time was 9:24 pm.
There were several explo-
SionS--Some witnesses said as
few as three, others as many
as 15-and then great walls of
flame leaped upward.
A. P. Webb, customer serv-
ice agent for Eastern Airlines,
said he watched from airport
ramp as the Constellation came
down.

CORE Cancels
Freedom Ride
On Route 40
Decision Follows
IS Restaurants
lntegrution' Pact

NEW YORK, Nov. 9 (AP).-
A scheduled Freedom Ride to
protest the segregation policies
of restaurants along U. S. Route
40 in Delaware and Maryland
has been called off by the
Congress of Racial Equality.
The organization had planned
to send some 400 riders
about 800 from Washington
into the two States Saturday
to conduct Sit-in demonstra-
tions at the restaurants.
The decision to call off the
ride was announced here yes
terdsy after a meeting of
CORE leaders. National direc-
tor James Farmer said the
session was Cancelled after the
Maryland Commission on In
terracial Problems and Rela-
tionS announced that 35
establishments on the highway
had agreed to desegregate.
A dozen restaurants border
ing the Delaware section of the |
route, which also would have
been involved in the ride, gave |
assurances of dGsegregation, |
Mr.. Farmer said.
Students Plan Action
Meanwhile. Julius HobSon,
CORES Eastern representative.
implored supporters of the ride
to refrain from demonstrating
on the highway Saturday. Il
have an inkling that some
| groups may go through with the
Freedom Ride despite CORES
cancellation" Mr.. Hobson said
today.
His plea followed a declara-
ton made last night by the
Civic Interest Group, which
decided to meet Saturday
morning as planned earlier and
to demonstrate later that day
somewhere other than along
U. S. 40.
I'VE will demonstrate in
Baltimore or somewhere else
just as we have been doing all
along" said Clarence Logan,
chairman of the group. which
met in Baltimore. Some rs
students from nearby colleges
and universities attended.
Spokesman said they were
pleased with the results Of de-
segregation efforts on the high
way, but they said the enthus-
iasm generated for Saturdays
Cancelled demonstration should
not be wasted.
However, Mr.. HobSon said to-
day. 1--WE feel that giant step
has been taken and that
the energies of our organization
should now be turned to other
projects.
New Deadline Set
The CORE statement said
there are 73 restaurants along
the Maryland stretch of the
highway, and that it is hoped
others will follow the example
of the 35 that have agreed to
serve Negroes.
If desegregation is not COM
plete by December Is, the
CORE statement added, I'VE
shall feel free to take necessary
action"
Word that the Freedom Ride f.
had been Cancelled came first
from Gov. Tawes, who said he
learned of CORES action
through the Commission on
Interracial Problems.
This is indeed heartwarm-
ing news" the Maryland Gov
ernor said. Il have long felt |
that the entrance of Freedom
Riders into Maryland was un-
necessary
Initially. CORE said it would .
hold the Freedom Ride unless
Gov. TaweS called a special
session of the Maryland Legis-
lature to deal with the dis
elimination problem.
Last week. however. leaders
Of the organization met with F.
the commission and promised
to postpone the demonstration
if a substantial" number of
restaurants along Route 40
scrapped segregation practices.
