lic Roads, both of Austin.

of Fort Worth, regional federal
highway administrator, and G. E.

Public Roads' Urban Planning
Division in Washington, D. C.
Completing the two-day agenda

erated by Steve Matthews of Aus
tin, executive director of the Tex
as Municipal League; Arlington
Mayor Tom J. Vandergriff; T. S.
Huff, THD's chief highway de
sign engineer, and TTI Director
Jack Keese.
General chairman for the meet
ing this year is W. F. Frey of
Austin, THD urban engineer.
Drops During Test Twelve Perish In AF Crash
Smoking hit the skids during

and non-smokers — took the test
for special research purposes of
Health and Physical Education
professors.
Ash trays were available in
the ballroom, site of the test.
Traces of only nine smokes
were found after the hour and a
half session.

MINOT, N. D. (A>)_ An Air
Force tanker plane crashed short
ly after takeoff Wednesday, kill
ing 12 of the 13 airmen aboard,
including Maj. Gen. Charles M.
Eisenhart.
Eisenhart, 53, was vice com
mander of the 15th Air Force
and a much-decorated commander
in the Pacific theater during
World War II.
THE CRASH of the KC135 at
the Minot Air Force Base also
claimed a heavy toll of other high
officers from March Air Force
Base in California. Among them
were three colonels, three lieuten
ant colonels, a major and a cap
tain. Three enlisted men also
perished.
The lone survivor was T. Sgt.
William G. Wright whom Air
Force officials speculated was
thrown free of the wreck as it
scattered over a 1,500-foot path
of snow-covered prairie about a
quarter mile from the takeoff
area.
WRIGHT WAS listed in critical
condition at John Moses Hospital
in Minot, 14 miles south of the
Strategic Air Command base in
north-central North Dakota.
The tanker, a four-engine jet
craft usually used to refuel other
giant planes in flight, was on a
routine staff visit to Minot, a
spokesman said.
Officials at the base said the
plane apparently was airborne
just before the crash.
