(AP)-- The marine air station here said the wreckage of a C-135 military jet transport carry- ing 72 marines and 12 air force personnel was found today approximately 4 miles north of here by a search party. There was no. report of any survivors. The downed plane was lo- cated in mountainous terrain between El Toro and Irvine Lake. Rescue aircraft and ve- hicles have been dispatched to the area, a spokesman at the air station said. The plane left El Toro at apnroximately 2:45 a.m. and radio contact was lost short- ly thereafetr. It was bound | for Honolulu, Hawaii. | Light rain and low. cloud cover hampered search mis- sions. | The air force said the plane was based at McGuire Air Base in New Jersey. The craft is the military version of the Boeing 707, at the farm, the home of thoroughbred racehorse cham- pions. Members of the royal party described the Oshawa reception as: "the finest the Queen Moth- er has had on her tour. "The reception given by the people of Oshawa slowed down 4 the royal party by almost 20 & minutes." The Queen Mother wore a printed silk dress and coat inj F floral yellow, brown and white shades, with a turban shaped hat of white straw topped by white veiling. The ensemble was completed by white slingback peep-toe shoes, white elbow length gloves and a cream purse, Her Majesty also wore a three-strand pearl necklace with a [ clasp and. pearl and mond ear- rings, Oshawa and Ontario Provin- cial Police escorted the royal the Queen Mother was wel- comed by Mr, and Mrs. Taylor. Col. R. S. MeLaughlin, and his daughter Isobel, and the manager of the stud farm, Gil- bert Darlington, and Mrs. Dar- lington, were then presented to the Queen Mother. Col. McLaughlin was greeted very warmly by the Queen Mother, He said earlier that they had met in 1939 and also during her last visit to Canada. The royal visitor was then shown the pride of the Taylor stables -- Northern Dancer -- winner of the Kentucky Derby, The Preakness, Florida Derby and the Queen's Plate. Mr. Darlington and Mr. Tay- lor pointed out the main fea- ture of each of the 17 stalions, mares and foals paraded be- fore the Queen Mother. In her comments Her Maj- esty showed a keen. knowledge of racing form. She could name sires and grandsires of some of the horses shown, as well as races they had won. The parade of champions took place beside the paddocks of the stud farm. Farm employees and their families gathered to see the royal visitor in front of the main barn. The Queen Mother. was obvi- ously enjoying her visit to the farm and chatted animatedly with Mr. Taylor. At one point she walked from beneath the shade of the trees into the brilliant sunlight so that the many photographers there could get photographs, She re- jfused a parasol tendered by| |Lady - in - waiting Lady Jean Royal Family im» the early years of the war. The late Prince George, Duke of Kent, paid a brief visit to the city as a part of his war time duties.

Witnesses said they be- lieved up to 40 persons, includ- ing many Americans, were killed. Officials said their first count showed 17 persons dead and 24 wounded. They expected this tally to go higher. U.S. police officials at the scene said that a charge that explodes in a pre-determined po- sition was probably the main explosive. Authorities believe there were two other explosions, both of them on bicycles carrying bombs. One of these loaded bi- cycles probably was parked be- side a riverside stall in front of the floating restaurant, the "My Canh," and the other on the other side of the boulevard. The river front normally is thronged with strollers seeking a cool breeze in the early part of the night. Witnesses at the explosion scene said 10 bodies were stacked up on the approach to the My Canh restaurant. An es- timated 20 more were inside the restaurant itself.

For sheer political audacity, the new military premier's ac- tion Thursday was unequalled, even under President Ngo Dinh Diem's dictatorship. Each newspaper is essentially the organ of a political faction or pressure group. Most pub- lishers are also leading politi- cal figures. The Roman Catholics, the Buddhists, the Cao Daists and the Hoa Haos also have their own newspapers. Since Diem's overthrow in 1963, the Saigon government has changed five times. Each time, the press has played a big role. The bulk of the news- papers opposed each govern- ment. This was probably the major factor in Ky's decision to play rough.
