Two Men Escape
Firey
MADERA, Calif., ^—A B52
Stratofortress jet bomber return
ing’ to its base burst into flame at
3,000 feet yesterday, nosed into a
dive that tore off one huge wing,
and crashed near U. S. highway

Crash
nental bomber exploded when it
crashed into a plowed field about
100 yards off the main north-south
federal highway in central Cali
fornia. Almost miraculously, it
apparently killed no one on the
ground, although a sheet of flames
rolled across the expressway, in
cinerating an empty farm house.
Burning debris struck one auto
mobile and a labor contractor s
bus.
Traffic was tied up badly.
Except for one large section
which fell almost intact some dis
tance away, the main wreckage was
in pieces no larger than about four
feet in diameter. The blast black
ened a corn field to the north and
scattered debris over an area of
two miles square.
Chief Deputy Sheriff William C.
Helm and Deputy Sal Vizcarri
saw the plane for a short time
before it hit the ground. They
said it was coming almost directly
at them at approximately 2,00 feet
altitude.
