22 Lincoln, Neb. Journal Wednesday, August 21,1974 Fairbury Residents Killed in Montana THINGS TO DO IN LINCOLN Wednesday All Miles City, Mont. (AP) The Montana Highway Patrol Tuesday identified three Midwestern couples as the dead and injured in a bizarre wreck Monday that killed four persons and critically injured two others. Officials said relatives arrived by a chartered airplane to sort out the names of the dead and near-dead from the smashup that saw a camper unit hit a lumber truck south of this eastern Montana cowtown. The patrol said the dead in the smashup included Robert Cox, 54, and his wife, Vera, 52, of Haddam, Kan.

Also killed were Dorthy Kettelhut, 53, Fairbury, and George Kettelhut, 68, Byron, Neb. The collision left a surviving spouse of each of the Kettelhut victims in critical condition at a Miles City hospital. The patrol identified the injured as Anna Kettelhut, 64, Byron, and Walter Kettelhut, 69, Fairbury. The patrol said initial investigation pointed to a supplementary gasoline can carried on the towing unit as the reason for the deadly fire that erupted when the vehicles brushed the side of a Townsend Lumber Co. truck.

The truck involved in the holocaust was driven by Jack Gross of Laurel, Mont. Neither Gross nor his wife, a passenger in the truck, was injured. Agricultural Demonstrations -Fairgrounds, 4-H 7 p.m. Government Meetings City Bids, 10 a.m., City-County Planning 2:30 p.m. both at County- City 10-J.

Adams, 23. of Fremont, who admitted taking a 3-year-old girl from her A a Iowa, home last February, has been placed on two years probation by Pottawattamie County District Court Judge Paul Sulhoff. Adams was charged with child stealing in the abduction of Cindy McPherson, daughter of Mrs.

Vicky McPherson. The mother was an acquaintance of Adams. Five days after the abduction, Adams was arrested in 01- ympia, and the child was returned to her mother unharmed. Adams pleaded guilty to the charges May 1, and was released on $5,000 bond. Prosecutors urged the court to defer sentencing on the guilty plea until the end of the probationary period.

Should Adams maintain a "clean slate" during that time, the charges will be dismissed. Conferences Student NEA, Management Concepts, both Neb. Center, 33-Holdrege; State Nurse Exams, 15-N, 8 a.m. This Week U. Neb.

Abraham Lin- Vitek Praises Treatment of Carrasco HOUSTON (AP) The director of the Nebraska prison system says action by the Texas Department of Corrections during a recent prison siege insured the lives of correction officers across the country. "TDC set a new type of precedent that they would not consider negotiating release of prisoners in exchange for said Joe Vitek. Vitek commented Monday at the opening sessions of the 104th annual congress of the American Corrections Association. Hal Husbands, Huntsville prison warden who dealt with the hostage situation in the longest prison hostage siege in United States history, appeared on a panel at the convention. TDC officials refused to negotiate hostages during the 11-day siege in which convict ringleader Fred Carrasco and two other convicts held TDC employes in the prison library.

Carrasco and another convict and two hostages died Aug. 3 when the convicts attempted to escape. The association endorsed the employment of former offenders in public and private agencies working in the rehabilitation of criminals. The group said in a position statement that it encourages the concept and practice of such employment in business and industry as well, "based upon the abilities of the individual," not the history of the PLUS THIS CO-FEATURE The 1.17-29 Nebraskans. come to Worlds of Fun.
