Policemen Looking for Survivors

(Original Caption) Le Mans Disaster Scene. Le Mans, France: Police and bystanders frantically probe for survivors in the tangled heap of bodies and steel after a racer plowed through the crowd at the Le Mans 24 hour endurance race. Driver Pierre Levegh and 81 others were killed and 73 were injured when his Mercedes hit another car, crashed into an embankment at more than 100 mph, bounced into the air and exploded, showering burning wreckage over the spectators. In background are searing flames of the burning vehicle.
