Russian flights may start in spring
WASHINGTON—(UPI)Civil aviation talks between Russia and the United States—in the diplomatic deepfreeze for five years are being resumed, and there is a possibility of Moscow-New York flights by late next spring.
The State Department announced yesterday that Pan American World Airways officials would go to Moscow next week for technical talks with representatives of Aeroflot, the Soviet state airline. There will be government-to-government discussions later to approve details worked out by the two carriers.
Russia and the United States initialed a civil aviation agreement in 1961, envisaging a non-stop flight by Pan Am and Aeroflot between New York and Moscow. But final details were never worked out.

Late decision causes crash
DENVER—(UPI) — Seventeen-year-old Ronald G. Briggs wishes he had made up his mind a bit earlier.
Instead Briggs decided to visit his girl friend after he drove past her house. He put his car in reverse, but he couldn't stop.
The vehicle backed up over a front lawn, crushed a tricycle, rammed into a small tree and finally slammed against the porch of a house next door to his girl friend's.
Police ticketed him for unlawful backing.
