The storm, an extra - tropical

however, was a coincidence.

Guard plane
plunge sets 7
homes afire
PORTLAND (UPI) An Air Na
tional Guard jet fighter fell into
a residential neighborhood near
here Thursday, setting seven
homes afire and raining debris on
a schoolyard where children were
playing.
Only two persons received mi
nor injuries. Three of the homes
were extensively damaged.
A six-man Air Force team from
McChord Air Force Base at Ta
coma. Wash., headed by Col. J.
J. Ruttgers, began an investiga
tion into the cause of the crash
and the extent of damage.
Information Officer Capt. Arthur
Kearney said the pilot's statement
-indicated that the plane caught
lire during a practice landing ap
proach at Portland Air Force
The plane crashed into the sub
urban Parkrose area just east of
Portland.
Residents fled their homes as
the F-89 tore a large hole in the
yard of one home and flaming de
bris struck the houses.
The plane's pilot, Capt. James
R. Alley, 27. of Portland, and the
radar observer, Lt. John R.
Loacker, 21, also of Portland,
parachuted into a field a quarter
of a mile away.
Kearney said the pilot and ra
dar observer ejected "at about 600
feet and that's cutting things pret
ty short."
"There was one big explosion,"
said Mrs. E. W. Anderson, whose
home is across the steet from the
crash. "Then there were lots of
smaller explosions while it was
burning." The Air Force said the
craft carried no live ammunition.
The series of explosions after
the crash accounted for burns to
one fireman and a minor cut to a
woman bystander.
Two boys playing at Prescott
Elementary School fled in terror
when they heard the whine of the
jet. Wreckage punctured holes in
the school roof and fell where the
boys had been playing.
"I heard this terrible noise and
then there was a big red light
and fire was everywhere," recall
ed. Mrs. Eve Berry. "I was
scared, very scared."
Mrs. Anderson said her "whole
house was like a ball of fire. Red j
was everywhere. I naturally i
thought it was an atomic bomb.'

Approval given
for air merger
NEW YORK (UPD-Mcrger of
Pan American World Airways and
Trans World Airlines into the big
gest privately owned flight system
on earth was approved Thursday
by directors of the firms.
Consolidation of the nation's two
largest overseas carriers would
create a globe-spanning operation
exceeding in assets the proposed
merger of American and Eastern
Airlines.
But the plan must win approval
from the 48.000 shareholders in
both lines, the Civil Aeronautics
Board and President Kennedy, be

It was expected that TWA's
domestic competitors would
strongly oppose the plan, which
also may be stalled by a legal
battle between the line and its
major stockholder, Howard
Hughes.
The agreement climaxed nearly
a year of negotiations. An accom
panying announcement said the
merger would forge "a financially
strong US-flag transatlantic air
line better able !o compete
against combinations of foreign
carriers which have reduced the
U.S. share of the transatlantic
market by 42 per cent in 12

Plans made
for combined

NASSAU, Bahamas (UPI) The
United States and Great Britain
greed today to assign nuclear
bombers now, and Polaris
equipped submarines later, to a
combined nuclear force within
NATO.
The historic arrangements, rep
resenting the first real start on
multilateral nuclear striking pow
er under NATO direction, were
announced by President Kennedy
and Prime Minister Harold Mac
millan as they ended their three
day meeting here.
To replace the abandoned Sky-
bolt missile program, the United
States will provide its Polaris
missiles, at production cost, but
without nuclear warheads, to the
British when they have sub
marines capable of using these
weapons.
It was expected that the first
Polaris missiles would not be
turned over to the British for ac
tual use until about 1970, because
time will be needed for construc
tion of the nuclear submarines.
To start on development of a
multilateral nuclear force, Ken
nedy and Macmillan agreed to
subscribe to NATO Immediately
Anglo - American units now in
existence from the U.S. strategic
forces, including the Strategic Air
Command; United Kingdom
Bomber Command and from tac
tical nuclear forces now ui
Europe.
Such forces would be assigned
as Dart of a NATO nuclear force
and targeted in accordance witn
NATO plans," Kennedy and Mac
millan said in a Joint "statement
of nuclear defense systems.'
To Build up Forces
The Anglo-American agreement
announced here also provided for
buildina uo the strength of their
conventional forces on a world
wide basis. '
As for their agreement to make
strategic and tactical nuclear
units available to NATO immedi
ately, the two leaders said:
"The President and the prime
minister are convinced that this
new plan will strengthen the nu
clear defense of the Western Al
liance. In strategic terms this de
fense is indivisible, and it is their
conviction that in all ordinary
circumstances of crisis or danger,
it is this very unity which is the
best protection of the West."

Final touches ;
put on prisoner
exchange plan
HAVANA (UPI) New York
attorney James B. Donovan put
finishing touches today on lists of
medicines, drugs and food offered
in exchange for 1,113 imprisoned
Cuban invaders. '
Donovan was expected to meet
Premier Fidel Castro sometime
today to show him the completed
lists of about $33 million in goods,
revised as a result of his hurried
Wednesday trip to Miami.
Longshoremen in the Florida
city were working around the
clock loading the freighter Afri
can Pilot with goods which hava
been pouring in by truck and
plane.
The freighter Wappen von
Hamburg was standing by, ready
to leave for Cuba to pick up the
prisoners when their release is
arranged.
Although Cuban refugees in Mi
ami hoped the captives would he
freed on or before Christmas
Day, their relatives here said it
is unlikely they will be out ol
prison much before New Year's

relatives of the prisoners
said negotiations for their release
havo been completed and nothing
remains to be expected but the
"big announcement" of Castro's
agreement.
Donovan returned here Thurs

The prisoners are Cubans cap
