AP) An Air France jetliner filled with American tourists crashed and burned on take-off yesterday, killing 130 persons in aviation's worst single plane disaster. Only two persons, both Air France hostesses, survived. The death toll rose to 130 last night when one of the chartered Boeing jet's stewards, who had been pulled from the flaming wreckage, died in a Paris hospital.

The crash took the lives of 121 members of the Atlanta (Ga.) art association, en route home; eight crew members, and Air France's Atlanta manager. The worst previous single plane disaster was the crash of a United States Air Force Globemaster near Tokyo June 18, 1953 that killed 129 servicemen. fo) JD They abused him, the church, the congregation, and the United States. They said things I cannot bear to repeat. An older priest entered the room and lectured the hoodlums.

They had done what they had come to do, so they willingly departed. But when the rest of us left the church a little later, the hoodlums were waiting. A YOUNG MAN and his wife came out of the church. One of the hoodlums ran up to them and cried: "Church is not for a man! Church is for women. Church is for worms!" When I got into'hiy car.

with my family, one! of the men ran up and shouted: "Listen, worm, you won't have that car very long!" He was right about that, as you will eventually see.

I didn't have time to realize what was going on." Miss Authie, with her coworker, Jacqueline Gillet, were taken to a military hospital not far from the airport. TRAGEDY struck shortly before 1 p.m.

as the big jet headed for the long Atlantic crossing in clear, sunny weather. Its four Jet engines roared and it swiftly gathered speed as it headed down the runway at Orly Airfield for take-off. A French gendarme watching it hurtle down the runway said that the plane apparently ran into trouble just as it hit flight speed. It lifted off the ground only a few feet, then pancaked back again, smashing airport marker lights. Pieces of the craft began 16 8 15 Theaters .21 TV-Radia 15, 17 Want Ads 26-33 Waather .,..26 Women 23-26 to drop from it as it thundered through a fence at the end of the runway and roared on toward the village of Vil-leneuve le Roi, flames beginning to spout from its forward end.

IT PLUNGED through another fence, veered to the left and then rammed into a rolling, voded slope where it burst into flames with a dull roar. In seconds it was a towering mass of flame and the heat was so Intense that green trees smoked and burned. Startled residents of Vil- leneuve le Roi heard the dull boom of the explosion as the fuel tanks went up. Some huddled fearfully in their gray stone houses, aware that tragedy had occurred and too fearful to go out. The Air France charter plane, running wild and yawing as it ripped through the fences and gouged into the hill, had just missed the small concentration of houses a short distance from the runway's end.

ONE ELDERLY resident, Mrs. Kobert Metternich. was in the kitchen havinz lunch with her husband when they heard the booming explosion. "Flames flew up all around us," Mrs. Metternich said.

"Fire flew up the side of the house. I ran out the back door but had to get back in immediately because of the flames." Her legs were slightly scorched. The burning fuel quickly went out, however, and the little stucco house was saved. Within moments after the plane had pulled free from the runway, only to slam back again and head for disaster, fire fighting units from Orly were headed toward the scene. As the news spread, fire units from nearby towns sped to the scene.
