(CP)---~ A bus taking 40 Belgian school children home from a holiday erashed off an autobahn bridge today killing 31, police reported. They said 28 boys and girls, aged 10 to 17, two teachers and the driver were killed in the crash, one of the worst acci- dents on the Frankfurt-Cologne superhighway, All survivors were severely injured, police said. The bus' broke through guard rails on a bridge at Idstein, about 45 kilometres northwest of Frankfurt and somersaulted down more than 30 feet, landing with its wheels up on a road below, The roof supports of the bus collapsed, Police said the party was from Brussels, where the bus was registered. _ A team of a dozen doctors gave first aid to the injured and dying children as they were freed from the wreck by fire- men. They were taken to hos- pitals in Limburg, Diez and Ha- damar, all about 12 miles north of Idstein. OFFICER KILLED A German Army officer was scene of the crash, where a traffic jam was caused by driv- ers stopping to look at the wreckage. A car skidded across coming lane and hit the officer's car, police reported. They said 17 died at the scene of the crash, some in the arms of rescuers, and the others in the three hospitals, Two priests performed last sacraments at the scene. The school children were re- turning from a vacation in the Austrian tyrol, a police official thought to have been asleep at the time of the crash, It was not clear what caused the 8.5-ton vehicle to plunge off the bridge. Police fivet aawe tha death Potce first..gave.-ine toll as 35, but later revised it. Police Commissioner Erick Wolf, who took charge of the rescue operation, said: 'As far as we know, all aboard were Belgian." The crash occurred between the cathedral town of Limburg and nearby Camberg. in dry sunny weather. The bus landed on its roof and no other vehicle was involved. 28 BELGIAN BOYS, AND GIRLS DIE IN Scores of police and am- bulances hurried to the scene when a passing motorist spotted the bus and raised the alarm, HEARD SCREAMS "When we got to the scene, there was nothing but moaning and screaming," Wolf said. "The dead were in all parts of the bus, We had to raise it a little to get inside and start taking out the dead and injured, "We could not use acetylene cutting equipment because gas- oline or diesel oil had spilled all over. inside the bus--over the passengers and everywhere, BUS CRASH We just had to do our best with our hands, "The children were of very mixed ages--some about 12 or 13 and others looked a good bit older, maybe 18 or 80," West German army units joined in the rescue operation, The driver of the bus was among the dead, The crash was believed to be the worst bus disaster in West- ern Europe since August, 1961, when a bus carrying 35 Ameri- can tourists plunged into Lake Lucerne, Switzerland, killing all passengers, also killed in an accident at the said.
