2 The News-Review, Roieburg, Of Mon., Dec 17. 1951 Airliner's Flaming Crash Kills 56 Aboard (Continued from Page 1) plane seemed to explode in tho air and a wing dropped off. Then It rocketed down, roaring and ciuMvinir flames, whining like a jet plane in a dive. The remnants of the plane tum bled in a blaze of metal junk into the Elizabeth river at the bottom of a 25-foot, trash-clogged ravine. Then said a spectator: However, flames shot up again 75 feet Into the air and the debris crackled with fire. Severe 20-dcgree cold the worst in the east this year froze hoses as firemen played water on the smouldering wreck age. Tbeir feet were braced un steadily on the snow encrusted ground. Only the tail of the plane re mained partally Intact, jutting like a monument over the black ened, twisted, smoking scene. By The Aitociated PrM Two planes carrying a total of 76 passengprs made safe landings without injury to any one In widely separated mishaps within houra of the plane disaster at Elizabeth, N. 3. At Amarlllo, Tex., a TWA Con stellation loaded with 56 passen- fers made an emergency landing unrlav night but narrowly avoided colliding with a speeding train. The plane's nose stopped only 50 feet from a railroad track, and about two minutes later a freight train passed. The pilot said he landed because the instruments showed a possibility of fire. No fire was found after the plane landed. At Miami (Fla.) International airport, a DC-4 skidded to a land ing with its 20 passengers safe Sunday. The plane had circled the airport just an hour with the nose wheel stuck. The pilot decided to land on the two main wheels and the tail.

Teen-Agers Win Battle LA SALLE, III. UP) Too young to hold salaried jobs, too young to pay full admission price that's the argument teen-agers used to get reduced rates at three movie theaters in La Salle and adjoining Peru. The campaign began in t grade school newspaper column. The youngsters bombarded theater managers with letters complaining that although the law forbids their holding salaried jobs until they are 16, "12-year-old boys, and girls are considered grown up by the theater managers. The theaters capitulated. With proper identification credentials, students now pay 25 cents at two Uicaters, 35 at the third, instead of adult rates of 44 and 60.

Bell Ringers Quit Over Attend-Church Edict SWANWICK, Eng. -iJP Nine bell ringers have walked out on strike because the vicar of St. Andrews said they should attend church services after pealing the chimes. The bell ringers declared: "Al though some of us are church goers, we object to bein told we should join the congregation. We want an apology before we ring again." The vicar, Bev. Lewis Roper, said: "The ringing of bells is an act of worship, and if the ringers don't attend church services, it doesn't seem quite right."
