Experts Sift Wreckage Os Liner Crash ELKTON, Md. (UPD — Investigators turned today from the “what happened” to the “how did it happen” phase of Sunday night’s crash of a Pan American World Airways Boeing 707. Twelve teams of experts sifted through the twisted residue of tragedy, identified various parts, photographed the wreckage distribution pattern, interviewed eyewitnesses, delved into the background of both crew and passengers, checked the maintenance history of the plane involved and the complete story of its last flight — Number 214 from San Juan, PR., to Philadelphia via Baltimore. The unhappiest part of their job was done—removing what was left of 81 bodies to a makeshift morgue in the Elkton armory. What lay ahead was weeks and possibly months of probing for the reason why. The basic clues on hand included: Lightning Strike Possible —Numerous eyewitness accounts insisting that lightning hit the giant jet when it was in a holding pattern over New Castle, Del., at 5,000 feet, followed by one or possibly two explosions. —Turbulence, . reported to be severe by other airline pilots flying in the area at the time of the crash. —The tape-recorded, dramatically calm last message from the Pan American pilot who tojd the Philadelphia approach control center: “Clipper 214... out of control . . . down we go .. , Clipper 214 going down in flames.” “ —The plane’s flight recorder, found badly dented, but which may reveal data as to the jet’s final moments, the stresses it encountered and its deaththroes maneuvers. Busy Getting Facts Traditionally tight-lipped Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) investigators offered no speculation and no theories. They were too busy getting at the facts to indulge in guessing games, but all concerned with the investigation privately remained skeptical about the lightning theory —mainly because never in the history of modern aviation has a lightning" bolt destroyed an plosion was another possibility * but one considered unlikely. Sabotage was not ruled out, although one top CAB official said there was no indication as yet that a bomb may have blown up the giant $7 million jet. Turbulence was a prime- suspect, although the 707 and other jets like the DCB and 880-990 series are the most powerfully built transports ever designed. The concern in this area centered around* the known tendency of swept-back airliners to stall when, they ...encounter. control dificulties in extreme turbulence. Two Wrecks North Os Berne Monday A pair of accidents occurred in nearly the identical, location on U. S. 27, between two and three miles north of Berne, just 10 minutes apart late Monday afternoon. Snow was blowing across the road, and the stretch of highway was very slippery. It is part of the portion of road that was not repaired by the state highway department this summer. The first mishap happened at 4:30 p. m., three miles north of Berpe, when a panel truck operated by Herbert R. Stratton. 24. of" route 6, Portland, went out of rontreljTeft the road and crashed into a fence and post before rolling over on its aide. Stratton without injury, but the truck received an estimated $350 damage. The corner post and fence is owned by Menno L. Schwartz, route 1, Berne. Deputy sheriff Warren Kneuss investigated. 10 Minutes Later Just 10 minutes later-, at 4:50 p. m., two and a half miles north of Berne, a car driven by Linda highway and hit ,a parked carowned by James M. Gillespie 39, *■ of Fort Wayne. 'Miss Rayl was traveling south when the, car went out of control, Crossed the road, and struck me front of the Gillespie auto, which r-was properly parked along the cast side of the highway, facing north. Deputy sheriff Kneuss and state trooper Dan Kwasneski investigat-ed.-estimating damages at SSOO to tjic 1964 model Rayl car and 3200 4b the Gillespie vehicle.
