GreencastleMan Killed Sunday In Airplane Accident
Fred Inman. 29. Greencastle, and Lawrence D. Barcus, 35, Crawfordsville Route 3, died Sunday morning when a single- engine plane crashed south of the Crawfordsville Municipal Airport. Inman, a licensed flying instructor, and Barcus, a farmer who lived near the airport and was also a licensed pilot, were spinning through a series of aerial acrobatics when the plane crashed five minutes after take-
off.
Witnesses said the pilot put the plane in what they believed a deliberate spin and was unable to pull out of the dive as the twoseat craft spiraled toward the ground. Montgomery County Sheriff Clarence Demorett quoted three witnesses, two of them pilots, as saying the plane was being rolled through a series of stunts when it crashed at 10:50 a. m. The small craft nosed into the field about 200 yards east of the airport. Robert Merrill, airport manager, said the two were flying at 1.000 feet when the spin began. The plane reportedly was owned by Rusk Aviation Corporation of Kankakee, 111., for whom Inman worked. Mr. Inman was born Decern-

Ike Sees Nixon As Dark Horse AUGUSTA, Ga. UPI — Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower thinks a deadlock in the Republican presidential nominating convention next year would make Richard M. Nixon a likely compromise to be “examined and approached.” “He is, after all, a very knowledgeable and very courageous type of fellow',” Eisenhower said Sunday of his former vice presi-
dent.
“I think Governor Rockefeller is right,” Eisenhow'er said. “You have to think of the great mass of the American people who say, we want something that is done that conforms to common sense, and to find what that solution is, they can be told only by prospective candidates telling them exactly what they are going to do.” Eisenhower said Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., “right nov’’ is a very popular figure and a popular name and people say that they are for him because he is conservative. But they don’t really know, I think, exactly
what that means.”
He said the country, faced with

614 Perish In Japan Disasters TOKYO UPI — Japan’s weekend train and mine disasters, which claimed a total of 614 lives, turned into a political issue today. Opposition parties charged that the government was not paying enough attention to public safety. The charges hit in the final 10 days of national election campaigning, giving the race against Prime Minister Hayato Ikeda its biggest controversy thus far. A second train accident today increased concern over safety measures but caused no serious casualty toll. Only six persons were injured. A police count today show r ed that the three-train crash Saturday between Toko and Yokohama killed 163 men, w'omen, and children, and injured 71. A few hours earlier, an exposion in the nation’s biggest coalmine complex killed 452 miners and injured 470. The shock was already fading, however because Japanese are more inured to catastrophe than other nations. Ikeda personally apologized to his countrymen and sent teams of experts to find out what went w'rong. The chief of t h e government railways submitted his resignation to assume responsibility for the crash, but it was not accepted. Railways Chief Reisuke Ishida w'as told instead to make utmost efforts to prevent a recurrence of the disaster. Only 36 hours after the first collision, however, two express passenger trains, carrying a total of 920 passengers, collided on another main line near the city of Yamaguchi. One of the trains had stopped because of a faulty brake. The other rammed it from behind. But the collision was not serious.
