The California Highway Patrol in reconstructing the fatal accident, said the car with the airmen in it was northbound and Mahan was believed to have been the driver. Young Rini was thought to be the driver of the other car. Also hurt in the tragic crash, were Lee C. Hereshkoff and Donald F. Purdue, who were said to be critically injured.
