Rescue Crews Remove Fliers Bodies From Mountain Top The bodies of two Air Force officers were taken off the top of the Wellsville mountains late Monday by two groups of rescue teams who put in a long battle to reach the snow covered peaks. One group left the Deweyville church grounds about 6:30 a.m. under the direction of Sheriff Warren E. Hyde, and the other left the Alton Viebell ranch under the supervision of Hill Air Force Base Officers and the Cache County Sheriffs Office. Golden Andreason of Elwood was the first to reach the site of the crash, arriving about 10:30 am. According to Mr. Andreason, the wind reached a , velocity up to 60 miles per hour, and during the afternoon the snow began to drift. There was feet of snow on the about 4 summit and at the crash site about 2 foot covered the bodies. The two crash victims were Capt. Louis Mack, 32, Ft. Walton Beach, Fla., and Lt. Keith B. Riley, 23, Massena, N.Y. The two men apparently were killed instantly Wednesday when their C45 crashed head on into the northwest slope of Collinston Pass, near the head of Pine and Flat Canyon in the range that separates Cache and Box Elder counties. Florida-Uta- h Flight The two officers were on a flight from Eglin AFB in, Florida to Hill AFB. They had reported by radio over Ogden at 12,000 feet and" were given permission to land at the Hill base. CAA officials said the plane apparently made a wrong turn while making its instrument landing in approaching Hill AFB. It should have flown north at Ogden to Brigham City and then turned left. It apparently turned right and crashed. Early in the afternoon, four members of a ski team returned to Deweyville where Deputy Sheriffs Orlin Allen and Stanley May had kept vigil throughout the day. About 6 p.m. four other searchers returned to the west side mountain camp in an almost exhausted condition. This group included members of the CPA group which include the pilot and observer Dee L. Brown of Ogden, and Lorin Hess of Salt Lake City, who spotted the crashed plane Sunday afternoon. Sheriff Hyde and Ray Gibbs Walter A.

According to Mr. Andreason, it appeared that the plane crashed about 50 or 60 feet below the saddle ridge which is visible from the west side of the mountain, and about three hundred feet from the peak. The plane had clipped the tops off the pine trees for about 500 feet before crashing, and death of the pilots wes believed to be instantaneous. The body of one of the pilots was placed on the horse of Golden Andreason and taken about 3 miles to a power wagon near the Viebell ranch, and the other body, placed in a crash bag, had to be pulled over the snow by other members of the rescue team. ill-fat- .
