AFTERMATH OF CRASH: This car carried three Washtenaw county men to their deaths early this morning when it crashed into an Ann Arbor Railroad freight train at the N. Territorial Rd. crossing, north of Ann Arbor. Killed were John L. Satterla, 25, of Whitmore Lake; Lyle F. Miller, 21, of 5550 Pontiac Rd.; and Harold L. Brenner, 23, of 7210 Whitmore Lake Rd. It was the worst county crash since 1947, when a truck-car accident on the Willow Run Expressway claimed four lives.

GAS MAY BE SHORT, BUT 'ELBOW GREASE' ISN'T: Paul McDowell, 1621 South Blvd., seems to be enjoying the extra service given by two shorts-clad girls at Floyd Cook's service station, S. Main and Madison Sts. Cook (with the gas hose), is celebrating his third anniversary as operator of the station, and that's how the girls, Dorothy Huntwork (left), and Donna Foster, fit into the picture. He hired them as an anniversary stunt. The oil workers' strike hasn't seriously curtailed driving in Ann Arbor yet. (Story on page 13.)

TRY OUT NEW SCHOOL BUS: Jean Anderson and Joe Grammatico are shown exiting from the new Ann Arbor High School bus after a group of students had a chance to look over the modern red, white and blue vehicle. The bus, said to be equipped with the latest safety devices, will accommodate 54 students. It will be used for trips taken by the high school athletic teams and for other school purposes. Until the Whitmore Lake School District receives its new bus, expected next month, the high school bus also is to be used to transport Whitmore Lake students attending the Ann Arbor public schools. The Board of Education purchased the high school bus at a cost of $8,600, with the understanding that the school is to reimburse the board within five years by funds raised through various high school activities and through bus fees. School groups using the bus are to pay "rental" fees.
