Twenty-one members of four vacationing California families perished today in the flaming crash of a TWA airliner near Chicago. Fourteen of them were children.
Three Oaklanders also died in the terrifying impact. They are Mary Kay [sic] Joahnsen, 20, Nancy Walker, 17, and John A. MacKenzie, 69. A woman en route to visit her daughter in Fremont was a victim. So was a Fairfield woman returning to her job at Travis Air Force Base.
