A former resident of Pontiac, Mich.,
his wife and six-year old son reside
in Barrytown, while his mother, Mrs.
Isabelle Campbell, resides in Brimely.
Campbell, formerly employed at
the Pontiac Division of General Mo-
tors Corporation, entered the air
force in 1943 and received final train-
ing at Stockton Field, Calif. He was
a private pilot with 150 hours' flying
time before he entered military ser-
vice.
Campbell went overseas in wune
1943 and won the Distinguished
Flying Cross, Air Medal with 11
oak leaf clusters and a presidential
unit citation. He was a native of
Sault Ste. Marie, Mich.
But even as plans went on for the
funerals of Maj. Campbell and his
colleagues, military and civil au-
thorities tried desperately to deter-
mine what sent the big army plane
crashing into the Bank of Manhat-
tan company tower.
Army authorities, recalling last
year when a B-25 boiber rammed
into the Empire State Building
killing 14 persons, planned new
safety measures to avoid a repe-
tition of the incident.
Civilian officals joined in the probe
and reliable sources forecast renewed
pressure for federal regulations for-
bidding aircraft to fly over metropoli-
tan, skyscraper studded areas.
Federal agencies were urged then
to adopt a ruling directing all air-
craft to avoid congested sections of

pire State Building last July Army
authorities instructed pilots of all
military aircraft to remain above
2,500 feet in the New York City area.
Soupy fog shrouded the tips of
towering office buildings in the area
when both crashes occurred-a condi-
tion prevalent more than 50 per cent
of the time, according to U.S. Wea-
ther Bureau records for the past five
years.

lodel Auto Parade
Other features of the industry ob-
servance will be a huge parade of
early model automobiles and trucks

exposition" at which the 1896 and
other early day vehicles will be shown

cinematic and thematic music, the
transformation of urban life wrought
by the advent of motor vehicles and
highways.

phies to the living pioneers, named as
initial members of the industry's
"hall of fame."

has been carried out. As last reported,
all active sororities anc cooperative
houses and six fraternities have un-
dertaken 'the full conservation pro-
gram of waste elimination, decreased
bread consumption, and famine-day
cuts in general consumption. Six
dormitory units have voted to follow
the first two points of the program
and are cutting general consumption
by more careful portioning of meals.
"America is faced with a solemn
obligation . . . " President Truman
recently said concerning the famine
situation. This obligation, he explain-
ed, is to do everything possible to help
feed the starving abroad-to eat less
and to support food relief collections.

(onstablary Troops
Raid Ships, Find Guns
VILSHOFEN, Germany, May 21-I
iP)-Four thousand hand-picked U.S.
cnstabulary troops swarmed aboard
372 vessels in the Danube River in a
surprise dawn raid today, seized a
huge bag of guns and contraband and
apparently smashed a smuggling ring
headed by remnants of the Hun-
garian Navy.
The boats, mostly Hungarian, were
suspected of smuggling German S.S.
fugitives out of Germany and trading
in black market supplies.
Cases of machine guins, numerous
light arms, radio sets, and quantities
of U.S. Army food, clothing, and
other materials were seized. Boats
containing them were impounded.
Several hundred members of the
once-enemy Hungarian Navy were
believed to be aboard Hungarian na-
val craft among the river boats.
At least 30 of the vessels, including
12 gunboats, formerly were part of
the Hungarian Navy and had fought
with the Germans against the Rus-
sians, Army officials said
Hundreds of persons were removed
for investigation, but the Army did
not disclose whether any S.S. troop-
ers were bagged. The heavily-armed
raiders struck from the shores along
a 45-mile stretch of the Danube from
the Austrian border up to Deggen-
dorf in southeastern Germany.
