PLANE WRECK
FOUND BURNED
ON MOUNTAIN
LOS ANGELES, May 19 (UD
A theory that new Lockheed air
liner was groping through a blind
ing fog for an emergency landing
field when It crashed Into a moun
tain alope was advanced today
after the bodies of lti nine occu
pants were brought out of the wil
derness of the Sierra Pelona moun
tains. The $30,000 plane, missing
since Monday afternoon when it
took off on a flight to St. Paul,
was found splintered and burned
against the side of Mt. Stroh, SO
miles north of here. Death appar
ently had come instantly to all on
board three men, tour women
and two children.
Hustled Into Peak
Only a few miles away Is an
emergency landing field, hemmed
in by rugged mountains. Invest!'
gators said it was likely that Pilot
Sidney Willey, with xero visibility,
was seeking this haven when his
big ship hurtled Into the peak at
200 miles an hour and exploded
Inspector Joe Merriott of the de
partment of air commerce, after
examining the two demolished mo
tors, said engine trouble had not
been responsible. The clock on
the shattered Instrument panel
had stopped at 2:07 p. m., exactl:
27 minutes after the plane took
off from Union Air terminal.
The plane struck with such sud
denness that the pilot had no
chance to cut the Ignition. One
engine was sheared oft. It rolled
160 yards down the mountain. The
splintered fuselage was strewn
along a 800-yard blackened path
before coming to rest in a clump
of yucca and cacti. All but two
bodies were hurled out by the Im
pact. Those of the pilot and
woman were still In the wreckage,
the woman's body so tightly
"wedged In the ruins that rescuers
had .to saw through the framework
to extricate It.
