Church Bus

Near Aguila, Ariz, one rainy night last week a bus scrunched along a soggy road, bearing 35 Mormon Church members back to their homes. Led by their Bishop Morris R. Perry, they had made a four-day pilgrimage to a Mormon temple at Mesa. Suddenly with a wrenching screech of jammed brakes the bus crashed through a detour sign which the driver had seen too late. Slithering off the road the bus turned over. When help arrived five Mormon women and a girl-baby were dead, all but two of the rest were injured. Said Bishop Perry: "There were only four of us able to do anything for the others. . . . I started towards the little town to get help. ... I almost went down because I am not used to running a mile as hard as I can make it."
