48 Die In French
Plane (Brasil
In The Azores
SANTA MARIA, The Azores
(/P)—An Air France Constellation
plane with French boxer Marcel
Cerdan and 47 others aboard fell
in flames today on a rocky island
in the Azores.
Witnesses said they saw the
plane fall flaming over a moun
taintop in the Algarvia district
near Sao Miguel Island’s north
east coast. Possibly because of
bad weather and poor visibility,
the Constellation hit a peak wh'le
heading for Santa Maria airport,
90 miles away in the Azores, wit
nesses said.
Some of the 37 passengers and
11 crewmen are believed to have
survived. Rescue teams were rush
ing to the scene. The passengers
weer said by Air France to include
10 Americans and two Canadians.
The plane had been missing for
eight hours.
First reports had indicated there
were some survivors. An an
nouncement by Air France in
Paris that the wreckage had been
spotted on the peak made no men
tion of survivors, however.
The Constellation, on a flight
from Paris to New York, also car
ried the noted French woman vio
lin virtuoso, Ginette Neveu, who
is well known to America 1 concert
audiences, and Louis Boutet de
Montvel, widely known French
painter and illustrator of chil
dren’s books.
Cerdan’s manager, Jo Longman,
and his trainer, Paul Jense>\ also
were aboard. Cerdan, former
world middleweight champion,
was on his way for a title bout
scheduled Dec. 2 at Madison
Square Garden, New York, with
Jake Lamotta, to whom he lost
the title in Detroit June IP.
