Ms. Conklin, who prefers the designation said none of the chairs dropped to the snow- covered mountain but said the cable began to swing, causing skiiers to either jump or fall from the chairs. Robert Lesage, a supervisor for the Colorado Passenger Tramway Safety Board, said he planned to arrive in Vail "at the crack of dawn" today to investigate the cause of the accident and examine other lifts at the area. Investigators from the U.S.

Forest Service were also sched- to look into the incident involving the chairlift, which is often used by President Ford during his skiing vacations here. Ms. Conklin said another 101 skiiers were rescued from the lift after it stopped. One passenger, Eric Rottman, 23, of St. Louis, was transferred to Presbyterian Medical Center in Denver for treatment of possible wrist fractures.

Five other persons were released after, treatment at Vail Valley Medical Center, said Ms. Conklin. She identified those treated and released as John Hoxme- yer, 21, of Holdridge, James Ott, 23, of Omaha, Ted Latch, 29, of Shreveport, Kevin Talbin, 22 of Vail, and Sam Olsen, 51, of Houston.
