ICE FROM PLANE
CRASHES THRU ROOF
LOS ANGELES, —Ramon L.
Angulo was watching television
last night 'but the chiller that came
through the air didn’t show on
the screen. It crashed through the
roof.
Angulo told sheriff’s deputies
he heard a rending poise in the
next room. Investigating, he found
a hole in the ceiling about 18
inches in diameter. The floor was
littered with chunks of smashed
ice.
Angulo thought pranksters were
at work. But the officers said the
home was beneath an airline
route into International Airport
and they deduced that ice had
slipped from a plane in flight.
