Title	Skier, rescue worker swept from peaks;
Description	Skier, Rescue Worker Swept From Peaks ^ SNOW BASIN, Utah (AP)—A snow slide swept a skier to his death down a steep mountainside yesterday. Hours later, a second slide killed a member of his rescue party. Ironically, the second slide may have been touched off by a rescue unit farther up the slope. • The bodies were found about 200 yards apart, on the east face of Mt. Ogden. They were left overnight. The victims were Dr. Lin- coln Ellison, 49, Ogden, a U.S. forest service official, and John Anthony. Tony Deane, 23, Salt Lake City, a former Denver university and Colo- rado State university skier. Deane, formerly of Aspen, Colo., had been married just a month. Ellison was research director for the Intermountain Forest and Range Experiment Station at Ogden, 18 miles west of this Northern Utah ski resort. ________________________________ An automatically guided automobile, recently cruised along a one-mile check road, steered by an electrical cable beneath the concrete surface.
Original Date	1958
