Fifty eight British vacationists plan a MIX tour to a remote island 600 miles from Britain with 132 beaches and no hotels. Passengers will stay in huts or tents and may enjoy nude swimming, underwater fishing, and water skiing as the crew reveals little of the island’s location.
Denn Harrigan, a crippled father who has just relearned to walk, sobbed as his wife and young son escaped a second floor blaze in a Milford home near Long Island Sound. Two infants, Mary Ellen aged two months and Kevin aged two, perished. Harrigan, town council member and lawyer, awoke to a kitchen fire. Firemen would investigate the cause as neighbors recalled a screeching voice in the street.
Sobbing Mrs Harrigan witnessed flames surge through the house as two Dennis children fled to the porch. Police and onlookers restrained them from returning inside while firemen struggled as heat and smoke blocked exit routes.
