CHRISTCHURCH (AP) — A New Zealand airliner that carried 257 pergons to their deaths in the Antarctic was on the wrong side of the voleano it hit, and the pilot apparentiy was to blame, the director of the recovery operation said today. “Tt would seem there has been a substantial error in navigation by the pilot," said Roy Thomson, chief of the Antaretic divisian of New Zealand’s department of scientific and industrial research, “The plane was basically on the wrong side of the mountain. It crashed on the northeast side of Mount Erebus. It should have been Passing the mountain on the northwest side." The BC-10 was on a alght- seeing trip along the An- Page 2, The Herald, Thursday, November 29, 1979 Plane on wrong side of mountain structural or mechanical failure. "In my opinion the plane was certainly in the wrong place to come down s0 low,” Thomson, one of the coun- try's foremost authorities on the Antarctic, told reporters in Auckland before leaving to head operations to try to recover the bodies. It was the third fatal DC-10 crash this year and the fourth largest death toll in aviation history, Treacherous winds, snow and low temperatures were delaying the recovery of bodies from the crash site. Thirty-knot winds whipped snow and updrafts around the volcano, and the wind chill factor was 38 below Celsius.

A. Ovcha- renko told the conference Wednesday the development of facilities to Hquefy and ‘fhe technology tor trans- porting liquefied natural gas on the seas and storing it is commercially available, is technically advanced, and probably does not represent asignificantly higher level of risk to the public and the environment than handling of conventional ‘fuels,”’ Ovcharenko sald in a paper. Developing countries without their own oil resources — most of the world's poorest countries — “This project has been in continuous operation for 15 years and ... there have been over 2,500 ocean shipments of LNG without any serious accidents," ‘ Japan imports about 80 per cent of its gas consumption in Uquid form and Western Europe about five per cent, Non-industrialized countries with gas for export include Abu Dhabi, Algeria, Colombia, Indonesia, Iran, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, cause a violent explosion. Ovcharenko said that on the basis of studies and experience, “it was estimated that for one particular LNG site near New York, the over-all risk is about 10 times less than the risk of dying from a fire at home and about the same as the risk of being struck by lightning,” While playing down the safety question, Ovcharenko does acknowledge that heavy financlal costs are involved even if liquefied natural gas does cost slightly less than equivalent volumes of high-quality crude ‘oil. reporter sits in the press gallery to witness the question perlod. _ The resemblance between the Commons and Senate question periods is not a coincidence, Liberal MPs and senators meet in the morning to plan their questioning strategy. The three senator- ministers are well-briefed on top issues and have a good idea what their elected colleagues iri the Commons are thinking and saying. Foreign Aid Minister Martial Asselin rises at the outset of question period to give an account of When the situation in Iran, thereby reducing questions to a minimum, his words are close to those of External Affairs Minister Flora MacDonald as she handies questions in the Commins. Economic Development Minister Robert de Cotret said Wednesday in an in- terview there is no such thing a3 a hotline between the Commens and upper chamber to make sure Senate and Commons an- swers apreey- - -- -s But he said he prefers to err on the side of caution when answering questions about areas that do not {all within his responsibilities. There have been a few sur- prises, including two recent breaks from party lines that surfaced among the op- position Liberals. . This week, Senator Azellus Denis of Quehec was in conflict with the stated Liberal view in both Houses by saying the government is endangering Canadian lives in Iran by adopting too high a orofile. . . The senator, whose leaders have been calling far more Canadian leadership in support of the Linited States, said “we know-it-alls stick our noses where we have no business.”’ And Douglas Everett of Manitoba supported the government's high interest rate policy — a far cry trom the official Liberal position. When Asselin, de Cotret and Justice Minister Jacques Flynn cannot an- swer a question, they promise to take it up with the minister responsible, They return to the Senale a few days later with a rehash of what the minister told the Commons a day or two earlier. - Each Tuesday, the trio has the advantage of knowing exactly what was said by the elected ministers because the Senate question period is held six hours later than the one in the Commons, In addition, the Senate does not meet on Friday or Monday, By Tuesday, the three are well aware of what has transpired in the Commons. They can turn to Hansard, the official record of Com- mons proceedings, or, as de Cotret does, watch question period on televislon. De Cotret sald he can anticipate most questions simply by reading the morning newspapers. Flynn appears to prefer Hansard. One Tuesday evening earller this month he volunteered to read a lengthy assage from Hansard to bring senators up to date on energy price negotiations between the federal and provincial governments. His offer was in response to demands from Senator Bud Olson, Liberal deputy House leader, that he con- firm or deny media reports tarctic Coast whenitcrashed transport natural gas at now have to pay 20to25 per Venezuela and Qatar, Wednesday, killing al! ultra-cold temperatures cent of their export earnings But safety concerns make aboard, including three could help many countries to cover oll imports, UN many communities reluctant Canadians.

Discouraged with medical treatment after learning of his disease, he remembered hearing about a beekeeper in Vermont who recommended curing arthritis with bee stings. He set out to find the man, Charlie Mraz, travelling in a van which became his home. He said inaninterview this week he might have tried to endure the pain of arthritis getting along with aspirin, but the idea of being crippled and unable to get around was what compelled him to try venom.
