AIRLINER CRASH
OCCUPANTS ALL DEAD BODIES SCATTERED ABOUT (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) NEW YORK, Oct. 19. Searchers for the crashed airliner found that the 19' occupants were dead. Eighteen bodies had been hurled from a hole behind the pilot’s cockpit and scattered 100 feet from the ’plane. A physician, whose niece was a passenger and an expectant mother, vainly joined the expedition with the hope that even if she were dead, he would be able to perform a Caesarian operation and deliver the child.
