WASHINGTON AP - The' Civil Aeronautics Board said to day a Capital Airlines plane which broke apart in flight over Mary land last May, killing 31 persons, apparently fell victim to a vicious thunderstorm. Violent air turbulence which overtaxed the plane's structure was listed as the specific cause. The plane, a Viscount turbo prop, fell to earth in flaming pieces near Chase, Md., north- ington airport at 4:02 p.m east of Baltimore, on May 12. It was bound from New York City to Atlanta, Ga. Capital dispatchers were criti cized by the CAB for failing to pass along important weather data to the plane's crew. The CAB said this information might have prompted Jhe pilot to avoid the storm areas or lane oincr precautions. : Past Oracle Club will meet Friday, October 23, at 8 p.m. at the home of Jennie Tool, 210 South Wendling Street.
