M. .(AP) An Air Force spokesman said excess speed may have caused the latest in a rash of military plane crashes in the mesa country of eastern New Mexico and west Texas. A wealher reconnaissance plane exploded high over Tucumcari Wednesday and fell in flaming bits. The pilot was killed. Col. John Swaffort of Laughlin Air Force Base. Del Rio, Tex said excess speed might have been the reason for the explosion of the U2 jet aircraft. The plane crashed after fire broke out in the cockpit, Swaffort said. Only 24 hours earlier, another U2 crashed east of Amarillo, also killing the pilot. The 40R0th Stra tegic Reconnaissance Wing at Laughlin has grounded all U2s pending an inquiry. Air Force officials at Cannon Air Force Base, Clovis, N. M meanwhile were investigating the cause of simultaneous crashes of two Finn jet fighters Tuesday night. Both pilots wore killed.

The sale contract specifies "for scrap, only. This .will be. surely, one of the noblest and saddest piles of scrap in. history. Her name is Enterprise.

Countv supervisors had earlier approved the start of abandon ment proceeding on the road, lo cated one and one-half miles east of Mount Shasta at Shasta acres subdivision, owned by Mrs. Edna Hareraves. The difficulty apparently started last year when an inexperienced county road survey crew laid out the road 100 feet east of its proper location. Sunervisor W. A. Barr of Mount Shasta says he has expected this and believes it to be a matter the county must assume.

The occasion was the San :a Cruz Island fight, when the En terprise flew Admiral Thomas C. Kinkaid's flag early in the war. She took hits fore and aft and saw her sister aircraft carrier Hornet fatally hit. With the Hornet lost that night the entire U.S. carrier air power in the Pacific was just, as Kin- kaid said, "one battered old car rier the Enterprise." Somebody chalked foot-high letters on the deck: "The Enterprise Against lapan. Crippled, patched, de fiant. she steamed 20 days later into the Battle of Guadalcanal. She wore Admiral Raymond A Spruance's flag in one of the de cisive battles of history, the Bat tle of Midway. She made the first ittack on Japanese territory, in the Marshalls and Gilberts, and carried right on through the war in nearly every major battle. It was from her deck that the Navy's early ace.

But the Big E rode it out. The pilots who had flown and fought from the Enterprise had her lor their favorite. "The Big 6 'that was her number) has got the spirit." they would say.
