by the three men in their car
earlier Saturday night. They were

In past years law enforcement
saw three persons walking around
dazed. I finally could see the plane
in tne aarKness.
"Its wings were sheared off but
the fuselage was intact except for
the nose.
"The nose was crumpled up like
cellophane.
"Two ambulances came near the
scene but got stuck in the mud.
We started taking out the injured
as other ambulances arrived but
it was close to. 1 a.m. before we
got them all out."
The plane crashed about
p.m.
Because there was no fire, res
cuers had difficulty finding the
plane in the darkness. Then the
mud stopped approaching vehi
cles, and the rescuers had to
walk.
A highway patrol car finally
reached the plane and its radio
was used to call for ambulances
and doctors. But the car's motor
gave out, adding to difficulties.
It was 214 hours before the
first ambulance reached a hos

Motor Vehicles,
tContlnued from Jafe 1)
In arguing for the bill Senator
Geddes slated that the bill is no
reflection on the present secre
tary of -tate, Earl T. Newbry.
"As f-r as I know he has ad
ministered the department of
motor vehicles in an efficient
manne., he said.
Sen. Geddes aaid that
the principal reasnna for fh hill
is that at present the department
of motor vehicles is actually not
under budget control.
"Further there are seven dif
ferent state departments dealing
with motor vehicles." Sen r;.H.
ues oeciared. "All these depart
ments, except the motor v.hiri.
department, are now under the
supervision and purisdiction of
the governor."
In support of his objections to
the bill, Senator Sweelland list
ed what he termed five major
points. He charged that the bill
undermines civil service: is not
a consolation of motor vehicle
functions of the state: i a or.nt
of wide new powers including
power to abolish any number of
civil service positions; would be.
more costly and is unneeded
since no facts were presented to
show that the department at
present is Inefficient or incom.
petenL
Senator Carl Francis who did
not support the bill in the hieh.
way committee, where it was con
sidered, declared that Senator
Sweetland's attack violated rules
of the senate, were based on
false premises and his opposition
to the bill v-as not in support of
the allegations made by Sweet
land, but because he was not
shown the need for the transfer.
Senator Francis said that Ren.
Maurine Neurbcrger had been a
member of the interim commit
tee that studied the proposal and
was co-author of the bill.
"I don't think that Ren. Neil-
berger is parading under the
Republican banner for sinster
purposes."
Those voting against the bill
were Senators Harry Boivin,
Klamath Falls; Phil Brady, Mul
