Great Falls Newspaper Reports

(and other documentation)

April 18-19, 1960

The Tribune was Great Falls' morning paper, the one that we subscribed to. Back in those days, even a smallish city like Great Falls had more than one newspaper, and the Leader was the evening paper. The Tribune clippings are from their April 19 edition, the Leader's from the day of the crash, April 18.

Since the articles are such large images, I have broken them up into smaller sections:

• Tribune, first section of the story
• Tribune, second section of the story
• Tribune, third section of the story (continuation on inside page)
• masthead from front page, pictures and caption

• Leader, first section
• Leader, second section

Miscellaneous documents:

• article in Houston paper (unfortunately undated and credited)
• letter from Montana governor J. Hugo Aronson (PDF; dated April 18)
• article about findings of the investigation into the crash (PDF; undated article from Great Falls paper)
