Sin Lult Obispo California Plate Polytechnic College Wedneeday, December 2, 1S70 Grid teams meet fiery ends

Two coUofts stand doop In mourning over the recent loai of football team members In a pair of tragic air crashes. On Oct. 2, Wichita State University In Kansas embarked upon a flight to Logan, Utah In a chartered, W0rld-Wa5.il surplus plane. There the grlddsrs were to challenge the University of Utah team. Fourteen players, s coach and an athletic director lost their lives when the ancient, overloaded aircraft plunged Into a ridge of the Continental Divide near Silver Plume, Colorado. The Southern Airways DCI, carrying the Marshall University team home from Oreenvilla, North Carolina, went down while attempting to land at TrWfltato Airport In West Virginia. In this moat Wagic Incident In American sports history, 71 people, Including M team members, flva ooaches and a team trainer, were killed. This college can empathise with the remorse that darkens the Wichita and Marshall campuses. Familiar with grief, this school suffered a similar loss one decade sgo, Oct. » . The tragedy of 10 years ago occurred In dense fog at Toledo Express Airport lust after lift-off. A chartered 11-year old C-tf airplane owned by Arctic Pacific Airlines was to carry the team home after a game with Bowling

Twenty-five others were Injured, some so severely that they still bear the scars. Circumstances surrounding the tragedy added to the turmoil caused by the un­ timely deaths. The gams with Bowling Oreen had been booked some two years prior, before college President, Julian McPhoe ordered the de-emphasis of football on this campus. Deemphasis meant, among other things, reduction of Mm athletic department's budget. Money had to bo saved wherever possible. One of Mm xrer*~* r*p«eee acquired -.

The first uungwe anew, wo had to start booking games out of the state and traveling greater distances. This made me uneasy. I decided to retrench."

Hughes returns for '61 football season ’I owed it to the kids’

"I can only express my great sorrow and deepest condolences to you and your university at this time of tragedy. It Is claimed ‘time heals all wounds,' but nothing can return the lives of your boys and coaches lost In this accident.” This quote was taken from a letter written on October 3 to the president of Wichita State University following the plane crash that took the lives of 33 players and coaches. The sender of that letter, La* Roy Hughes, experienced a similar disaster 10 years prior as one of the 48 persons aboard the Diane that crashed at Toledo Express Airport . Hughes, head coach of the 1980 Mustangs, recalls the night of horror this way: r‘We began to pick up speed.
