One Limps Into
Shannon Airport;
Other Disappears
Shannon, Ireland -IUPD- Two
U. S. Air Force Jet bombers
collided in flight over the At
lantic Ocean today. One
plunged Into the sea, presum
ably killing its crew, but the
other limped safely to Shan
non airport with a dangling
engine.
British and United States
rescue craft sped to the scene
but officils said there was
little chance any crewmen
survived the crash.
Flying in Formation
The two planes were B47s-
six-englne turbojet bombers
They were flying in formation
with a third B47 when the col
lision occurred about 250
miles off the west coast of
Ireland. A B47 normally car
ries a crew of three.
Capt. John Brennan of
Evansville, Ind., managed to
pilot his crippled plane to
Shannon with the undamaged
plane escorting him.
A spokesman at the Pitts
burgh, N. Y. Air Force base
said the two bombers that col
lided were en route from
Plattsburgh to England as part
of a normal "deployment ex
ercise" at the time of the ac
cident. Vanished Into Seas
"After the accident it ap
peared that the other aircraft
went into a whirl and vanish
ed into the rough seas below,"
urennan said.
In London, officials of the
Transcanada Airline said it re
ceived six messages from a
civil airline reporting that
two planes had collided and
that one was ditching in the
sea.
Plattsburgh officials said
the planes were unarmed.
The planes are the same as
the type shot down last July
over the Barents Sea bv So
viet fighters.

Under YMCA Auspices
During the fall and winter
months the team will be
swimming largely, under the
auspices of the local YMCA
and will compete in some
eight to 10 swim meets that
will be held throughout the
state during the off-season
months.
The team is working out
three nights a week at the
YMCA; on Mondays from 6 to
8 p.m. on Thursdays from 6

from 9:30 to 11 p.m.
Lyons says that all persons
who are interested in swim
ming for the team should turn

and girls of all ages are eligi
ble, he said. Team members
wll have to attend at least
two of the three practices to
continue team membership.
