Plunge Kills
Girl Chutist

BANNING, Calf, Oct. 9
(AP).-An ex-Army paratroop-
er made a futile attempt to res
cue a San Gabriel girl whose
parachute failed to open on
her first try at skydiving.
Dianne Elaine Tango, 20, fell
to her death Sunday.
The story of her death was
told by another skydiver,
She had been training all day
for the jump with James Fran
eel, 26, a San Gabriel fireman
and former paratrooper, whom
she'd met a few days before.
"She didn't seem afraid" said
Mr.. Francois roommate, Phil
Hetzler. Mr.. Francel was too
grief-striken to comment.
The girl jumped at $500 feet.
Her parachute streamed out
behind her, but failed to open.
Mr.. Francel could not see the
girl jump, Mr.. Hetzler said. But
when some one shouted that
her chute didn't open, he dived
after her, hoping somehow he
could catch her or get close
enough to shout instructions to
her,
? "He free fell much farther
than was safe" Mr.. Hetzler
said. He hit the ground just
a few moments after she did.
"Dianne had an emergency
chute, but she didn't pull the
cord" Mr.. Hetzler said.
He said the girl and three
roommates lived downstairs in
the same apartment house in
which he. and Mr.. Francel lived.
Jim met Dianne last We'd

living room she got interested"

Business Renewal Plan
For Adoms-Morgon Hit

Mr.. Smith disclosed some of
the details of the proposal for
a development corporation at
a meeting of the Adams-Mor-
gan Planning Committee on
October /.
The day after the meeting,
Mr.. Smith said that he had
attended a meeting of the busi-
nessmen considering the de-
velopment corporation on July
6. His father, sitting next to
him, asked Mr.. Smith what he
thought of the proposal.
Mr.. Smith said he told his
father he was skeptical about
it butst that it might be a good
thing because two other busi-
nessmen had pledged $4,000 and
they might have an inside
track on information and there
might be something to it. Mr..
Smiths father subsequently
pledged S2,500 to the proposed
corporation.
Mr.. Smith said he does not
consider that action as ad-
vising his father to pledge ST.
500 in the corporation.
Differs on Details
Mr.. Smith also said that al
though he generally had been
in favor of urban renewal. he
always was reluctant to give
personal approval to 10 or more
major aspects of urban renewal
proposals. For instance, he
favored putting a parking
garage on Lanier place NV,
although the NCPC plan pro-
posed earlier this year opposed
this. Also, he opposed elimi-
mating light industrial uses
from the area, and the
standards proposed, he pointed
out.
The latest parking proposal
would eliminate the property
which Mr.. Smith rents for his
business, but his opposition to
the latest proposal is not self
ish" and does not stem from
his possible relocation, he said,
but is based on other con-
siderations.
Many people in this area
are apprehensive over the cur
rent Adams-Morgan urban re-
newal proposals and do not
have to wait until it hits them
in some way before their OPP

Blocking Drivers Held
Worse Than Speeders

Columbia University's Teachers
College, in a report to the 60th
annual meeting of the Ameri-
can Automobile Association.
Mr.. Malfetti said his group
has analyzed more than 1000
descriptions of good and bad
driving from enforcement Of
ficlals, driving teachers, vehicle
administrators and automotive
and traffic engineers.
Largely, they explode the
picture of the bad driver which
has come to be accepted as a
stereotype-a reckless speed
ster, careening down the wrong
side of the road" Mr.. NAL
fetti said. There are such
drivers and they are bad driv-
ers, but their actions do not
represent the bulk of the bad
driving with which we must
contend if we are to reduce
accidents.
"The answers of our au-
thorities indicate that the poor
driver characteristically acts to
impede traffic flow; blocking
or driving slowly in the passing
lane; changing speed and posi-
ton without signaling; not per-
mitting another driver to enter
the traffic stream"
He said the "slow driver,
particularly the one who blocks
the passing lane, is more OF
an irritant and hazard than
the driver who exceeds the
speed limit. However, the man
who drives too fast for con-
ditions, regardless of the posted
speed limit, is roundly con-
demned."

DETROIT. Oct. 9 (AP) "A
slow driver who won't let you

A business renewal plan fol
Adams-Morgan has been Sc
verely criticized because of q
controversial proposal fol
parking for the traffic -chokeo
area.
Thomas F. Smith, planning
delegate of the businesSmen's
group in the area, said an al
ternate plan for parking for
businesses in the area has
been suggested to the Adams
Morgan Planning Committee
An earlier proposal, which
many businessmen oppose,
calls for parking lots in the
2400 block of Eighteenth street
NV. and the 1900 block of
Columbia road.
A Business Preservation
Committee report has proposed
that those buildings under the
National Capital Planning
Commission plan stay. except
for the Columbian Inn at 1894
Columbia road and possibly
1838-1842 Columbia road. and
that other buildings be torn
down. This would eliminate the
buildings from 2412 through
2422 Eighteenth street NV,
which are "the worst looking
buildings in the entire block, 4"
the report said.
Advantages Stated
The latest report states sew,
eral advantages, Mr.. Smith
said. 1t will cost at least $301,-
900 less, based on rough ap-
praisals, than the earlier pro-
posaI, and contraction costs
will be less. Only four or five
businessmen at the most will
go in the new plan instead of
IA businesses and the post Of
flee. Construction costs for the
parking structure for the lat
est proposal will not be as
much as for parking and stores
and the land is more suited for
parking, Mr.. Smith said.
The businessmen have not
had an adequate chance to
compare the earlier NCPC pro-
posal and the latest Business
Preservation Committee pro-
posal, Mr.. Smith said. The
latest proposal will be discussed
at a meeting of the Eighteenth
and Columbia Road Business
mems Association on October
II, Mr.. Smith said.

Misrepresentation Charged
Another letter read at the
october 1 meeting charged
that Mr.. Smith was misrepre-
Senting the position of the bus
inessmen's association. The let
ger said Mr.. Smith was not
telling the Planning Commit
tee about an earlier business
mems vote on the urban re-
newal proposal which would
eliminate the property Mr..
Smith was renting.
At the October meeting,
Mr.. Smith told the Planning
Committee in a letter that the
businessmen had voted % to 81
in favor of the revised NCPC
plan and said the businessmen
would review the latest pro-
posal by the Business Preser-
vation Committee at its Octo-
Der II meeting.N

The young and old, the good.
But |? | skip across the hill.
And down trail know;
l worship where the wild plums

Their apronsful of snow
Beside winding silver stream
find a redbud tree:
Within its gorgeous vernal sheen
The love of God see.

With tiny hearts of gold;
And in each cup of sparkling dew,

ton officials who are currently
planning to inaugurate the pro-
ject on other reservations
throughout the country.
In 1857, after a famous and
much publicized legal bout
with the Salt River Water Users
Association over the Smith Park
Dam, the Tribal Council unani-
mously passed a resolution
naming the Smith Park water
impoundment, Hawley Lake.
The Council also made Haw-
ley an honorary member of the
White Mountain Apache Tribe
with lifetime privileges.
HaWley is a member OF the
AsSiniboine Tribe of Montana
and received his early educa-
ton at Haskell Institute, Law
renee, Kansas.
He attended Davis-Elkins,
West Virginia where he ma
jored in biology. He received
his Masters Degree from STAN

A self-made man, he boxed
semi-pro in small mining town
clubs in the coal mining region
of West Virginia to earn his col
lege education.
He was star football player
and played in the End annual
East-WeSt game held in 1926 in
San Francisco. Little known is
the fact that he was chosen as
All-American center that year
among college players.
The father of 7 grand

Hawley's success with the de-
velopment of the tribal re-
sources on the Fort Apache

sition upon tn e unanimous
agreement Of PhilleO Nash,

In the past three years. the

Some Of the reasons that
