erness of central New Mexico
have found part of a National
Airlines DCIO engine, but no
trace of a man sucked through
the window of the jetliner.
Searchers were ordered back
to the northern fringe of the
Gila Wilderness today to look
for the body of G.F. Gardner of
Beaumont, Tex., pulled from
the plane following an explosion
during a flight from Houston to
Las Vegas, Nev., and San
Francisco.
“I still think it’s a very slim
chance the body will be found,”
Sgt. Al Whitehouse of the New
Mexico state police said.
A jet engine on the plane,
which carried 116 passengers
and a crew of 12, disintegrated
Saturday night and tossed
chunks of metal into the
fuselage. A window was sma-
ll? on board were injured. A passenger was sucked out of
a window (sixth from hatch) when the engine exploded.

shed, the cabin was decom
pressed and, despite the efforts
of passengers who vainly tried
to hold on to Gardner, a
machinist on his way to a job
in Singapore, was pulled from
the plane.
A 200-pound engine casing
from the plane was spotted
Sunday night by pilots in
National Guard helicopters. But
Whitehouse said the discovery
may or may not be a clue to
finding Gardner’s body.
He said he would talk to
National Airlines officials today
to try and determine how long
Gardner was stuck in the
window before his body was
sucked out at 39,000 feet.

Maddox
says right
stolen
ARAGON, Ga. (UPI) -Those
who favor Bible reading and
prayer in the public schools have
had their rights !‘stolen from
them in the name of freedom,”
Lt. Gov. Lester Maddox said
Sunday.
“Tomorrow morning the Bible
can be read and prayer can be
offered to God in Congress, in
the courts, in the various gov
ernors’ offices, in civic clubs,
and in any place in the United
States except in our public
schools,” Maddox told the con
gregation of the Euharlee Bap
tist Church.
“The courts have ruled that
it is against the ‘law of the land’
for our little children to be led
in the Lord’s Prayer in public
schools.”
Maddox said the spiritual de
cline in America is the fault of
church members as well as oth
er members of society.
“Those who profess the reli
gion of Jesus Christ, but who
do not practice the religion of
Jesus Christ, are no more ef
fective and productive in spiri
tual things tha the atheists,
Communists, secular philosoph
ers and others who are waging
a war against God and the
Bible,” he said.

“We had a very loud

had just given the man a drink
and five minutes later he was
blown out the window.”
The plane landed safely 15
minutes later at Albuquerque
where 20 persons were treated
at Kirtland Air Force Base
hospital for bumps and bruises

Judge
says film
obscene
ATLANTA (UPI) —A Fulton
County judge says the film “The
Devin in Miss Jones” is obscene
and “utterly without redeeming
social value. ” Judge Joel Fryer,
who viewed the film in a locked
courtroom, said it is a "patently
offensive depiction ... of sexual
conduct embodying a shameful
or morbid interest in nudity, sex
or excretion.”
Four men were bound over
for trial at a hearing Friday for
distributing the allegedly ob
scene film. They were arrested
Oct. 24 at an Atlanta theater
when the film was confiscated.
