"When did you first see the tram?” he was asked. ‘‘lt was on as,” the driver said, shutting his eyes as if to wipe out memory of the horror. "The headlight was right on us. I stepped on the gas. I almost pashed it through the floor." “What then?” “Then the crash. God! And those cries! ” Line was reported by police to have "disappeared" after the crash of a fast Baltimore 6c Ohio passenger train into the bus bearing 27 pupils, a teacher and Line Line, the teacher, and 11 pupils escaped serious injury.

crossing until the train roared down on him at a mile-a-minute clip. The crossing is one of the most dangerous in Maryland, police said, j Five other persons were killed there j recently. The view in one direction j is partly obscured by the station | and in the other by an embank- j ment. The crossing watchman was ; off duty at the time. A moment before the train plowed into the rear of the bus the pupils, members of a senior high school science class returning from a lecture at the University of Maryland, had been singing and joking in a holiday mood. Line said he failed 'to hear the train whistle. The light from the locomotive suddenly illuminated the bus. The children screamed in horror for an instant. Then the grinding crash of steel against wood snuffed out the lives of 10 pupils almost instantly. Two bodies were on the cow'catcher of the engine when it ground to a stop almost half a mile down the track. Bodies and wreckage were strewn for 200 [ yards along the right-of-way. to take the bodies home. Miss Funk sobbed as she identij fled bodies of her science class pu- j pils. She had been sitting in the j front seat of the bus, beside the driver. “I had just suggested to the driver ! that we had better stop in Rock- ; ville for gas. As we came to the crossing I heard no bells or whistle. Suddenly there w ? as a blinding light. The driver stepped on the gas in an effort to clear the tracks. “I didn’t hear a whistle until the | lights of the approaching train | blinded me. As the driver stepped | on the gas the bus lurched forward i and the train hit us in the rear. "My head hit the top of the bus, stunning me. Then I heard screams and moans of dying children. I re-

gained command of myself. We crawled out of the wreckage and began ministering to the wounded. Then firemen and ambulances came.” The Rev. Cecil J. McNeal of Catholic University heard the crash, only 200 yards from his bedroom window. He dressed and ran to the scene. Two bodies had been tossed by the train into his yard. Edward L. Stevens, golf professional, said he passed the bus just before it reached the tracks. He stopped when he heard the crash and ran back. He helped firemen pick up the dead and injured. “We saw arms and legs and a girl's head,” he said. “There were bodies all over. We found one girl 60 feet away in a cemetery. Bodies were strewn all along the tracks.”

STRUCK by Jesus’ sadness as He quitted Jerusalem after taking final leave of the Temple, His disciples followed Him out of the city and up the slope of the Mount of Olives. At the summit, He turned for a farewell glance at the beautiful city, and prophesied that at some future time there would not remain a stone upon a stone of the great buildings. His disciples asked: “When shall these things be?” For them, then, Our Lord pictured the end of the world. As the awful Day of Judgment draws near, He prophesied, there will be signs in the heavens, roaring of the sea and waves, earthquakes and pestilence and famine. Preceded by His Angels who would summon all nations, Jesus foretold, the Son of Man, with power and majesty, will come in the clouds of Heaven and separate the "sheep” from the “goats.” To the former, the King wall say: “Come, ye blessed of My Father, possess you the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.” To sinners: "Depart from Me, you cursed, into everlasting fire w r hich was prepared for the devil and his angels." * * • NEXT: Sanhedrists plot for Jesus’ destruction.

The weather will remain unsettled today, and tonight there probably will be rain. Tomorrow afternoon the temperature will rise and tomorrow will be fair. Dust Storms Spread Bp Vnitrd Pre>K KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 12Thinning as it spread, the dust blanket extended today over additional states of the Middle West, South and Southwest. It appeared possible that the soil in the drifted areas of western Kansas and the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles, where all of the dust storms have originated, might remain quiescent, for a few hours at least. At Garden City, Kan., the sky became visible for the first time since the current storm started four days ago, breaking all records for intensity and length. The dust drenched all of Texas yesterday and today moved into northern Mexico and out over the Gulf. Residents of Indiana, Louisiana, Arkansas. Tennessee, Mississippi and Alabama experienced what for many of them was their first dust storm. Picking up tons of silt from the Texas Panhandle the storm advanced over New Mexico. The atmosphere was clearing throughout Texas today except in the western part of the state south of the Panhandle where the wind still was kicking up the dirt. Increased visibility was reported
