Probe Cause Of Tram Mishap
A runaway ski lift at Squaw Valley in heavy weather injured and killed. A slack cable whipped from a pulley and sliced into the car, killing three men and a woman as rescuers endured blizzard conditions to reach about 70 passengers stranded 150 feet above ground. Metallurgists and engineers will investigate the cause while crews work to safe rescue.
