occurred. The engineer and assistant engineer of the freight, who leaped clear of the train just before the crash, first fled the scene. But later they turned themselves over to police. They contended that the light signal they saw was yellow, not red. The two men, Lanfranco Pigiani, 27, and Soriano Fabbrl, 22, were arrested. Police said they probably will be charged with manslaughter. The accident occurred as the' Milan-to-Genoa p assenger train was about to put out of the Voghera station, where it had stopped so take aboard more passengers. Many of the estimated 600 persons aboard the passenger train were en route to the Italian Riviera for a weekend holiday. Today marked the start of the Ascension holiday in Italy. A number of the victims were women and children. Racing along at nearly 50 miles an hour, the engine of the freight train hit the last coach of the packed passenger train. Passengers sitting or standing on the tail-end of the coach were shoved into a six - yard square mass of broken metal, wood and flesh.

The troop consists of boys from ages six to 15 and this was their first parade. The ‘'Kadets of America” had its beginning the spring of 1953 in Savannah, Tenn., when Lions club member, C. L. Parris, who is now national director of the Kadet program, introduced the idea to the Savannah Lions club and asked them to sponsor a group of 50 boys. A national headquarters was established in Savannah to give this help. Then in 1956, five Savannah Kadets appeared on the Steve Alien TV show, “Tonight” along with the Rev. Russell Boaz, national chaplain for the "Kadets of America.” Headquarters was swamped with inquiries from across the country from civic clubs, chambers of commerce, churches and other organizations.
