The Federal Aviation Administration said the plane ap parently touched down too far along the runway at Harry S. Truman Airport on St. Thomas, attempted to gain power but was unable to become airborne and hit the hill. Witnesses said the plane struck the hill about 300 yards from the end of the runway and the tail section broke off on impact. The fuselage and main section of the plane continued to slide another several hundred yards across the main road leading to the airport, crashing into several parked cars, a gas station and a bar, they said. Seconds after the.crash, the plane burst into flames and a huge ball of fire shot several hundred feet into the air. The flames turned to heavy black smoke within seconds and survivors who were apparently either thrown from the crash or who could walk away appeared through the haze. A fireman on' the scene said: “It just crashed on the hill at the bottom of the airport road ... A lot of bodies were burned. The whole plane was burned up." A man identified only as Turnbull, who owns the First Chance Bar, said all his patrons escaped.

For those students who are staying this summer, seeking employment, two chances are available: “Slim and none,” according to. employment supervisors. Frank Clemson, em ployment service supervisor for the State Employment Office, said there is generally less hiring in State College in the summer than in other month's. Because of the drastic reduction in the number of students in the area during the summer, employers don’t need as much help. “When 15 to 20 thousand are knocked out of the population, there’s bound to be a dent somewhere,” Clemson said. Approximately 1,000 students apply for jobs at the State Employment Office, and Clemson said some 200 of Islands jetliner crash A spokesman for the National Transportation Safety Board in Washington said the jetliner apparently aborted its landing and either “never got back off the ground or just barely did.” The spokesman said the safety board was rushing a nine-man team, headed by William R. Haley, to St. Thomas to in vestigate the crash. The wreckage burned for nearly two hours. Fire-fighting efforts were hampered because of a lack of water, and private water trucks responded to an emergency call. Part of the plane came to rest just below a little hill dotted with small businesses and homes. Most survivors apparently got out from the port side and wandered up the hill away from the burning wreckage and gas station. There was no screaming or shouting, except by rescue workers trying to organize a litter squad to bring the survivors down to the road, the only access to the hospital. The survivors were glassy-eyed, dazed, some with hands outstretched as if reaching for help. The hospital put out an emergency call for blood and dozens of donors began lining up immediately. Most,of St. Thomas was unaware of the crash since there was an annual “food The officials will strive to “conclude agreement oh resumption of diplomatic relations between the countries,” which were severed when they fought a 14-day war in the winter of 1971 over Bangladesh, Haksar said. Restoration of aircraft them eventually get jobs. He said the best • opportunities are construction or landscape labor jobs while many service jobs, such as restaurant or yard work, are also available. Clemson said a good source of student employment is the Civil Service. Applications for Civil Service jobs should be made in December or January. “Generally speaking, employment is going to be a little bit better because construction is picking up,” Clemson said. He said college students have advantages with some jobs. Employers prefer hiring those over 18 for any job involving danger. ’ The University Employ ment office also receives several applications from stu dents for summer jobs. This office is concerned with full time on-campus employment. However, because many jiousing and food service .workers are laid off in'the summer, the University tries overflights privileges, air .links and, road and rail 'communications will be among ' the items on the' agenda, the spokesman said. The Islamabad talks will be the first since senior officials of the two countries met in New Delhi last May.

Job competition'is keen. “Over the last two years the jobs have been nil, compared to other years,” according to James Jocker, personnel assistance manager for the University' Employment Office. This office is not ac cepting job applications for this summer. Several short-term imme idate-need jobs are availa ble each week in the area. These jobs and a few full time jobs are handled through the Student Employment Office. Babysitting and yard work are available weekly, with special-skills jobs such as bartender or painter appear ing periodically. This office is basically a referral service, supplying potential employers with names of students seek ing work. The office is used by a large number of students.

The crash tore down power and telephone lines near the airport and blacked out communications and electricity in about a third of Charlotte Amalie. Harry S. Truman airport has been criticized by local politicians and citizens who claim the airstrip is unsafe. As recently as a month and a half ago, a congressional delegation inspected the facility because of continued requests by the Virgin Islands government for federal funds to extend and improve the strip. An airport spokesman in St. Thomas said only one crew member was kno\vn to have survived. “The runway here is very short and you have to slam your brakes on very fast,” the spokesman said. “The plane came in, then veered off the runway. One wing dipped and the nose went over.” v “The plane hit the Shell station. There was an explosion and it broke in two, part of it hitting the mountain and the rest landing in the rum factory land. ” . India was retaliating for the' blowing up of its commercial plane in'Lahore, Pakistan, by two Kashmir Moslem hijackers. India demanded compensation for the plane, Pakistan refused and in turn referred the case to the International' Civil Aviation Organization.

Students should start looking in January or February,” Steimle said. She stressed, however, that« students should exhaust all job resources, meaning friends and relatives' and faculty members. This office is trying to expand its ser vices to serve more students, Steimle added. Former employers of large numbers of students have said- they are not hiring for the summer. Contractor E.D.
