Sunday, June 16, 1957. 3 Americans Survive Crash Near Moscow MOSCOW, June American tourists and a Polish stewardess are the sole survivors of a twin-engine Polish airliner which overshot Vnukovo Airport in a driving rain Friday night and tore into a plowed field four miles away. The U. S. Embassy was notified Mr.

and Mrs. Harvey Beuker of Grand Rapids, were identified among the nine dead. Beuker was an insurance and real estate man. It was announced in Warsaw that the Mongolian trade minister, Pureviyn Bator, was among others killed. Survivors Listed.

The surviving Americans are: Richard Cheverton, 41, news director of the Grand Rapids television station WOOD-TV; Mrs. Margaret Tremper, wife of a Grand Rapids osteopath, and their daughter, Michelle, 14. Mrs. Tremper was in a critical condition, but somewhat better than when three American reporters found her half-buried in mud amid the wreckage and dispatched her to a hospital. She has internal injuries, a possible leg fracture, head injuries, shock and concussion.

The Embassy doctor and two Soviet specialists attended her. The others, though shaken, were in good shape. The plane, from Warsaw, carried eight passengers and a crew of five. The five Americans were flying to this city for a five-day visit to Russia as part of a 28- day tour, sponsored by WOOD-TV, on both sides of the Iron Curtain. They had toured Britain, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany.

Rough Flight. The American reporters who found Mrs. Tremper were Harold Milks and Roy Essoyan of the Associated Press and Irving R. Levine of the National Broadcasting Co. They were driving in from the airport when they sighted an ambulance pulled up by the side of the road.

Levine and Essoyan had landed at Vnukovo 20 minutes behind the Polish schedule after a rough flight from Helsinki. Milks was out to meet them. He had the only flashlight among the rescue party that set out through the woods to the scene of the crash. Cheverton and Michelle had already made their way out. The party found Mrs.

Tremper pinned in the wreckage calling: cold. Help. My legs They carried her to the ambulance on a stretcher. Daily Vital Statistics COURT ENTRIES Superior Coart No. La Verne Helton vs.
