Air Crash Kills Man In B-School Seminar

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A chemist who had been attending a 13-week seminar at the Graduate School of Business Administration was killed, and another seminar member critically injured Saturday when two giant airliners collided over New York's suburbs.

Joseph M. Wilkinson Jr., 43, of Summit, N.J., enrolled in the Business School's Advanced Management Program, was one of four passengers who died in the crash of a Boston-Neward shuttle with a jetliner from San Francisco.

Wilkinson and Army Captain Richard E. Foster, also in the Management Program, were flying to Newark to bring their wives back for next week's graduation ceremonies. Foster was on the critical list in a Danbury, Conn. hospital yesterday, but his chances for recovery were described as good.

A memorial service for Wilkinson will be held today.
