Crash Of Light Plan
Kills Glendale Flier
(Continued from Page One)
100 yards away was the left wing
of the plane as mute testimony of
the final phase of the accident.
What had caused the crash was
still undetermined. Civil Aeronau
tics Authority official C. J. Chris-
tensen of Medford said the air
plane had bounced into some high
tension and telephone wires along
the road and had been tossed
into the tree, carrying some of
the wires with it. "why he was
down that low. I don't know," he
said.
The time of the accident was
nlnDointcd at 4:18 p.m. Saturday,
Electric clocks were stopoed at
that time when electricity was in
terrupted by the snapping power
lines.
Adding to the puzzle of the crash
was the testimony of people liv
ing in the area. They said the
motor didn't sound as if the plane
were in trouble, one explanation
offered by State Policeman Fred
Jungwirlh of Glendale was the
possibility Estes was trying to
land the plane in an open field
near the spot of the accident.
Causing more uncertainty was
the reDort that Estes had been
flying for six years. This t'mc, he
had taken off as he had often be
fore from Glendale Air Field. Cor
oner Powers said the plane wis
due for another check for air
worthiness this month.
Estes, who lived at Box 52S, was
"i?vno" lo2?er for Robert Dol
lar T.nmhoi- Cn. t Glendale. He
had lived in Glendale continuously
for about six years.
He is survived by his wile, r.i-
sie: two sons Harold and Bobby,
and two daughters, Dorothy and
Barbara Ann. The youniest son,
Bobbv. 12. often went living wilh
him, according in a son-in-iaw, u
.1. Coooer. of Glendale.
The body was tken In Hull t
Him Mortuary in Grants Pass.
The accident was investigated
by both state police and sheriff's
deputies. It was the second fatal
plane accident in the county this
year.
Estes was a veteran of World
War I. He was born at Wagoner.
Okla.. Mav 16. 1904. Beside his
wife and two sons of Glendale. he
is survived by two daughters, Dor
othy Blomme and Barbara Cooper,
both of Glendale; six grandchil
dren; two sisters, Myrtle Newton
of Ft. Worth, Texas and Lucille
Davis of Redlands, Calif.; three
brothers, Clyde of Hanford, Calif.,

SINKING HOSE Suzanne Di Peso, 12, shows where the
family's garden hose, which has been sinking into the
ground since June 30 broke when her father hitched the
loose end of the hose to his car bumper and attempted to
pull it out. The perplexed Downey, Calif.; family had no
explanation as to why the ordinary garden hose was being
sucked into the ground. George Di Peso dug down two
feet around the hose and could find nothing unusual.

Di Peso received batches of advice
and suggestions; telephone calls
from as far away as New York,
Tokyo. Canada and England.
Finally, yesterday, he cut the
hose and said:
"If it wants to sink down farther
and disappear completely, my
prayers go with it. If it decides
to slay ine way it is ana cioesn i
move any more, I'm going to bury
it.
He and his family had planned
In go to the mountains for Ihe
July 4 weekend but called off the
outing.
"I couldn't stand It any longer,"
he said. "This thing was getting
out of hand. My life has been
made a big mess."
A consulting geologist, R. Bruce
Lockwood, Glendale, said water
saturated sand or mud, like quick
said, below the surface might
draw the hose down, but he knew
