Army C-54 Transport Crashes and Explodes; Crew of Three Killed •y th« AiMCioted Pr»i» NORTHAMPTON, Mass., May 14. —A C-54 transport plane—flying on instruments through a driving rain storm—crashed with an explosion and burst into flames here yester day, killing its crew of three. The four-engined plane hit the ground with terrific force—driving a hole 8 feet deep in a soggy field and splattering wreckage over five acres. Air Transport Command head quarters at Westover Field—a few miles away—said the transport car ried three crewmen. Officers identified the dead, all married, as: Capt. Paul Lonquich, 40, Yonkers, N. Y.; 1st Lt. Wilfred W. Lavinder, 23, Portsmouth, Ohio, and S/Sergt. Jack Zaresky, 26, Jack son Heights, N. Y. ATC officials said the transport was on a routine training mission, practicing instrument flying in the immediate area of Westover Field. Just before crashing, the plane was seen skimming tree-tops and nar rowly missed hitting the top of a farmhouse. It plunged within 50 feet of the house in a field and blew up. The blast could be heard six miles away. Mrs. John Adams, whose farm house was almost hit, said: “I was in the kitchen when I first saw the plane. It was flying very low—so low, in fact, that I thought it was going to hit the top of my house. “It crashed only a few feet away. I heard a terrific explosion a few minutes later and then saw the j plane burst into flames.” 2 High School Seniors Die In Nebraska Plane Crash NELIGH, Nebr., May 14 OP).—Two Neligh High School seniors were killed yesterday when their small plane crashed at the Neligh Airport.

First reaction to the proposal by teachers was one of disapproval. But they have not had time to study the proposal and are not sure what the board committee and school superintendent have in mind. Meeting yesterday, the committee asked School Supt. Hobart M. Corn ing to draw up the new rule after he had proposed the change to the group. The committee, headed by George E. C. Hayes, is revising the rules under which the school system operates. The present rule merely says the board "looks with disfavor” on ef / forts of teachers to get legislation passed In Congress unless It has been presented to the board for ap proval. Paul Cooke, head of Local 37, American Federation of Teachers, put it this way: “We feel the teachers should not be blocked in presenting their views." He said that if the board means that once it has considered a pro posal—and disapproved it—all views are to be “bottled up," then his group would be opposed to It. The matter will be studied and repre sentatives of the AFT will appear before the board to present their views, he added. Confidence Expressed. “We have the fullest confidence in the school superintendent and the Board of Education,” Mr. Cooke de clared, adding that his union .nat urally would abide by whatever rule Is adopted. Mrs. Catherine Hurley, president of the teachers’ branch, CIO, United Public Workers, also said she felt that the teachers should not be blocked completely from going to Congress. She said she could see where a problem might arise if something about which the teachers feel strongly is proposed to the board and turned down. Mrs. Hurley said, however, that her union always has gone to the board first in the past and has found the members sympathetic. Some safeguard probably would be needed in any such rule the board might adopt so that teachers would have recourse if a proposal were disap proved, she said. She indicated she too would pre sent the views of her union on the matter to the board. Teachers Criticized. In recent months, teachers have been criticized by some board mem-! bers for bypassing the board and going directly to members of Con gress on the salary raise question. The rule change being considered would make such action cause for dismissal. Mr. Hayes asked Dr. Corning to explain in the draft of the proposed change just what was meant by “lobbying,” saying if it was to be a cause for dismissal, it should be clear what constituted a violation. He also asked what attitude the board would take when teachers were called by members of Congress to express tehir views—something which has happened on numerous occasions. Adelbert W. Lee, committee mem ber, said he felt teachers who by passed the board were guilty of in subordination. Before the proposal becomes a board rule, it must be approved by the full Rules Committee and then presented to the full Board of Ed ucation for its approval. Comdr.
