J u I Y llanrhratrr Ufralft Saturday, July 22, 1989 Manchester, Conn. — A City of Village Charm Newsstand Price: 35 Cents BOY, a SURVIVES CRASH 2 town people among missing By Rick Santos AAanchester Herald An 8-year-old Manchester boy who was on board the United Airlines jet that crashed Wednesday in Sioux City, Iowa, was listed in critical condition late Friday night at a hospital in Sioux City, airline and hospital officials said. His mother and another Manchester resident believed to be on board the plane are not listed among survivors. Two Watertury residents also believed to be on board Flight 232 are not listed among survivors. Jason Feyh, of Brook Haven Apartments at 432 W. Middle Turnpike, was listed in critical condition at Marian Health Center, said Sandy Anderson, a nursing supervisor at the hospital. Anderson would not elaborate on the boy’s injuries, but neighbors of the Feyhs, who had talked to the boy’s father early Friday morning, said he told them the boy had head injuries. The boy was believed to be on the flight with his mother, Brenda. Neither the Marian Health Center nor St. Luke’s Hospital, also in Sioux City, had admitted Brenda Feyh or the other Manchester resident, Walter Williams of 147 Edgerton St. Survivors of the crash were reported to have been brought to those two hospitals. Licia Lindley, who lives in the same building as the Feyhs. said the father, Melvin Feyh, and his teen-age daughter left Friday morning for Sioux City. The boy is a classmate of Lindiey’s son, she said. Although Brenda Feyh and Williams were not listed as survivors late last night, a spokeswoman for the airline said they may be alive and unaccounted for. Lori Burkhart, from the airline’s corporate headquarters in Chicago, said the survivors’ list may be dated. While airline officials have not released a complete list of survivors, a spokesman at the Farmington company where Williams worked said his wife, Rachel, was told by the airline that her husband was presumed dead. Peter Murphy, a spokesman for the Otis Elevator Co. in Farmington, said company officials also presumed Williams had not survived. Williams had flown to Denver with his wife and three children and had planned to rejoin them there after a business trip. Also aboard the ill-fated flight were Priscilla and Steven Theroux of Waterbury, according to ■ Associated Press reports quoting a woman who Patrick Flynn/Manchaatar Herald answered the phone at Ms. Theroux’s home. She identified herself only as a family friend. MEAN MACHINE — Bruce Mora of 330 lawn this week.
