The big craft, attached to the 308th Air Refueling Squadron at Hunter Air Force Base here, slammed into the only parking lot at a residen tial subdivision about 10 miles southeast of here. It had just taken off on a routine training mission. It was believed that one or more of the plane's four en gines failed. The plane was burning be fore it hit, witnesses said, and it blew up in several thunder ous explosions as it ground across the lot and into two empty houses. C. E. Williams, who was working in his gar den near the scene, was burned and at last report was in fair condition at a hos pital. One Resident Burned Another resident, Charles Wilson, was burned while try ing to put out the fire which had spread to his yard. His condition also was reported as fair. One witness, Lawrence Johnson, said that "fire was coming out (of the plane) be fore it hit." An unidentified telephone lineman said the plane barely missed the pole on which he was working, and that an ob ject that fell from the plane almost hit him. Wreckage was scattered over about five blocks, and one of the homes it struck was demolished. Identify Dead Lt. George Muelich, infor mation officer at Hunter, said the Stratotankers normally carry a crew of six, but that five observers were aboard on this flight The dead men were identi fied as Lt. Harold G. Laffen, 26, aircraft commander, of New York City; Lt. Freddie Levine, 25, navigator, Charles ton, S. C; M. Sgt. Warren E. Martin, 29, flight engineer, Yakima, Wash.; A-lc Malcolm Rogers, 22, Prattville, Ala.; M. Sgt. Curtis W.
