Plane wreckage spotted in mountains
CORONA, Calif. (AP) — The wreckage of a twin-engine plane believed to be
carrying 10 people was spotted early today in the Santa Ana Mountains by a news
helicopter, a sheriffs spokesman said.
Pilot Bob Tut of KNX-AM, a Los Angeles radio station, said it appeared the
plane crashed directly into a hillside at about the 2,200-foot level, scattering
wreckage over a small area. There didn't appear to be survivors, he said.
Riverside County Sheriff s Sgt. Jim Hopkins confirmed that the plane had
been spotted by a news aircraft around 6:30 a.m. He said it was near Pleasants
Peak, where searchers had worked overnight.
The Cessna 402 left Las Vegas at 11 a.m. Sunday and was due at Orange
County John Wayne Airport at 12:30 p.m., said Civil Air Patrol Lt. Col. Ed
Crankshaw.
Four CAP ground teams searched through the night near 4,000-foot Pleasants
Peak on the Orange-Riverside county line because the plane disappeared from
radar at about 2,100 feel near the peak, CAP Lt. Harriet Aceves said today.
The identities of the people believed aboard the plane were withheld early
today, pending notification of relatives, but all were reported to be from Las
Vegas, she said.
Controllers talked to the pilot shortly after noon as the plane was inbound to
Orange County but there was no subsequent emergency declaration from the
pilot, officials said.
Federal Aviation Administration duty officer Rich Tomquist said the pilot
noted in a flight plan that there were 10 people, but he cautioned that did not
mean all had boarded.
Pleasants Peak is in the Cleveland National Forest, 45 miles southeast of Los
Angeles and 20 miles northeast of the Orange County airport.
Welder wins top tightwad honors
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — A retired welder who says he separates two-ply
toilet paper to save money won top tightwad honors in a newspaper’s “How
Cheap Arc You?” contest.
“It's no trouble at all; it just takes a little practice,” Luis Torres said Sunday.
He said his single-ply rolls are ‘ ‘just as good as two-ply” and save about 23 cents
each.
Torres, 64, who attributes his frugal ways to growing up with 14 siblings, says
he buys day-old baked goods and meats, generic groceries and “whaiever’s on
sale. ’ He also says he reuses plastic bags and never tosses out that final sliver of
soap.
“I always did things to save money,” said Torres. “I’ve done everything
there is to make or save a dollar. I’m not embarrassed at all.”
The Oakland Tribune, which asked readers to submit their money-saving
ideas, cited other skinflints in the categories of gross, tacky, unbelievable,
incredible and dihonest.
Among the gross, a Berkeley couple said they save dental floss on a bathroom
hook for reuse, and a Richmond man claimed he refreezes used ice cubes.
As for tacky, one couple said they collect two-for-one coupons to restaurants
and then invite another couple. “We make them pay for their half, and we dine
free,” they wrote the newspaper.
In the unbelievable category, one person wrote: “I regulate my bodily func-
tions so that 1 go to the bathroom during work hours. This saves on water, tissue
and time. I can spend my hours at home doing something constructive, like
cutting off expiration dates on coupons.”
An incredible submission came from Elmer Hurren in El Cerrito, who said that
when his vacuum cleaner bag fills, he cuts one end, empties it and sews it up for
reuse.

Sunday started out another early
day, as students boarded the buses at
7:15 a.m. for an excursion along the
beach.
It also was the first time for several
students to sec the ocean.
A walk along the seashore collect-
ing shells and watching the boats in the
distant fog highlighted this portion of
the trip.
After the beach, another favorite
site entertained the group.
A visit to Sea-Arama featured
dolphin and seal ion shows, and an
educational presentation on sharks.
A couple of students even got into
the act by being selected from the
crowd to touch the water animals.
{Dolphins and scalions, not the
sharks.)
An aquarium featuring all types of
fish also was on display at Sea-Arama.
The next stop was a tour of an old
sailine ship called the Elissa.

A short film about the history of the
ship and what it was used for was
presented. Following the film,
students then boarded the ship and got
a first hand look at what sea life must
have been like for sailors many years
ago.
And then there was shopping.
Almost every T-shirt shop, souvenir
stand and postcard store between
Houston and Galveston was visited by
many of the students.
The main shopping portion of the
trip was in Galveston at a part of town
known as The Strand.
The Strand is a renovated part of
Galveston featuring restored build-
ings. Shops lining the street sell
clothing, gifts, candy and other items.
Was the trip worth all the time
students spent collecting and recycling
aluminum cans and newspapers? Was
it worth saving nickles, dimes and
pennies? Was it worth studying about
space and other subjects prior to leav-
ing Sapulpa?
Bcltzner said the students told him
“yes.”
“They all said it was worth it,” he
said. “One boy said he wanted to go
back for his birthday.”
A couple of parents put the trip on
videotape. After the party Saturday
night, each student got on videotape
and said what they liked best.
Beltzner said the trip almost went
without a hitch. No major problems
arose and everyone, adults included,
had a good time.
He also said the adults and other
sponsors that went along deserve a pat
on the back for their help in maintain-
ing order on the trip.
And, Beltzner deserves special
recognition for his flawless planning
and organizing of the entire trip for
everyone.
What docs next year’s fifth graders
have to look forward to?
Beltzner said he does not know at
the moment, but there has been some
discussion on the possibility of
another trip next year.

SOUTHAVEN, Miss. (AP) —
Three Southaven police officers have
been put on administrative leave pend-
ing an investigation of a shooting that
left a bank robber and his hostage
dead.
Interim Police Chief Tom Long
declined today to identify the officers
involved in the shooting during an
attempted bank robbery Friday.
Long said a 12-gauge shotgun blast
struck and killed bank manager Randy
C. Lusk and the robber, Bruce W.
Shoulders, of Broken Arrow, Okla.
"He (the officer) fired one round of
buckshot which struck tire robber in
the head and leg,” said Long.
“Regrettably and tragically, some of
the buckshot pellets not only struck the
bank robber but also the bank
manager.”
A third shooting victim. Patrolman
Johnny Cox, was in satisfactory condi-
tion today at the Regional Medical
Center at Memphis.
Mobile homes can be safe housing
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) —
Authorities say mobile homes can
provide safe living conditions despite
records that indicate more Oklaho-
mans have perished in rural mobile
home fires so far this year than in all of
1988 or 1987.
“I think the mobile home industry
is doing everything it can do to keep
them safe and still stay in business,”
said John Parasich, assistant state fire
marshal. ’’There's only a certain
amount of things you can do to keep
(mobile homes) safe before it becomes
ridiculous or cost-prohibitive.”
Parssich’s comments printed in
today's editions of the Daily Oklaho-
man came two days after a Lexington
man became the state’s 11th mobile
Deaths
home fire fatality this year. Earlier this
month, two mobile home fires within a
five-day period claimed eight lives.
Rural mobile home fires claimed
seven lives in 1988, and nine in 1987,
according to records from the state fire
marshal’s office. The office does not
keep statistics for the state's largest
cities.
Parasich said the potential for fire
deaths is greater in mobile homes than
in houses because of their compact
size and the materials used in their
construction.
He said smoke and combustible
gases spread faster in mobile homes
because of the homes ’ size, and wood-
panelled walls cause mobile homes to
become a engulfed in flames within a
few minutes.
Additionally, he said, mobile homes
typically have fewer doors and
windows through which to escape a
fire.
“For those reasons, it’s kind of a
national feeling among firefighters
that they hate to roll on a mobile home
fire,” Parasich said.
He said, however, that the lack of
working smoke detectors, not the
construction restraints of mobile
homes, is to blame for this year’s
deaths.
’’Every fatal fire we’ve had, there
wasn't a working smoke detector. The
ones that did have a smoke detector
didn’t have batteries in them, ’ ’ he said.

Parasich said a smoke detector
would have awakened each victim in
plenty of time to safely escape the fire.
Trailer homes have become safer
under regulations set out in the Federal
Construction Standards Act of 1977,
said Larry Jackson, executive director
of the Manufactured Housing Associ-
ation of Oklahoma.
“There is no question there were
some fire safety problems before that
law was passed,” he said.
Jackson said the law provides for
stricter wiring regulations and requires
electric smoke detectors in each
bedroom. He also said builders now
are required to enclose furnace and
water heater compartments in
shee track.

Diet Pills Sweeping U.S.
Doctors Invent
‘Lazy Way’ to
Lose Weight
U.S. Gov’t. Approves Patent
Claims for New Diet Pill
BEVERLY HILLS. CA (Special)—
An amazing new weight loss pill called
“fat-magnet" has recently been devel-
oped and perfected by two prominent
doctors at a world famous nospital in
Los Angeles that reportedly “guaran-
tees" you steady fat loss and calorie
reduction by simply taking their tested
and proven new pill.
The U.S. government has just approve
ed the doctors claims for a hard-to-get
pa.ent that confirms "there has never
been anything like their fat-bonding pill
process before.” It is a totally new major
scientific breakthrough arid is revolu-
tionizing the weight loss industry.
Ybti Can “Eat Normally’’
Best of ail, “you can continue to
eat your favorite foods and you don't
have to change your normal eating
habits. You can start losing fat and
reduce calories from the very first day,
until you achieve the ideal weight you
desire without exercising".
Flushes Fat Out or Body
The new pill is appropriately called
the "fat-magnet" pill because it breaks
into thousands of particles, each acting
like a tiny magnet, “attracting" and
trapping many times its size in undi-
gested rat particles. Then, all the trapped
fat andcaloriesare naturally "flushed"
right out of your body because they
cannot be absorbed.
Within 2 days you should notice a
change in the color of your stool, caused
by the fat particles being eliminated
“Automatically" Lose Fat
According toone of the inventors, Dr.
William Shell, heart specialist and
associate professor of medicine at
UCLA medical school, “the new fat-
bonding process is a “lazy way” to lose
weight because the pills alone
"automatically” reduce calories by
eliminating dietary fiat. It is 100% safe
and not a drug."
The fat-magnet pills are already
----1--- ^1410 UIW OIIVOUJ

more attractive again.
