(Picture by UPI) CASPER "It was the sort of thing you read about; you just can't comprehend the emotional impact of seeing it." Thus Casper attorney Hugh Duncan, whose business flight Sunday took him over Southern Idaho, described the area flooded when the Teton Dam burst. "You'd see inundated cars and speculate whether people were still in them," he said. Duncan said the muddy swirling water was dotted with dead livestock and people Doctors agree to let Karen die Dener lift! More Stores Selectjaa Lot No. 1 2 1 3 So.

A passenger familiar with the area noted a house was setting in the middle of a Rexburg football field, swept there by the flood's force. "It's apparent much of the arable farm land was laid to waste," Duncan said, musing about the "loss of a lifetime of work building a farm the memories swept away in a flood like Another Casper man had a closer brush with the flood. Dale Popish, in the area to install farm irrigation pumps, phoned his wife late Saturday to report "Well, 'we don't have a trailer anymore." The call surprised Mrs. Valda Popish, who hadn't heard about the flood. "And I was glad I hadn't," said.

Popish and his co-workers made their way to a hill over Rexburg, Mrs. Popish said, but "all "they could see was treetops." The small travel trailer, which contained a new color television and a new rifle, vanished from Sugar City and still hasn't been found, Mrs." Popish said. But Popish located their four-wheel drive vehicle swept blocks from where he" parked it near Rexburg and "covered with about three inJ' chesofmud." 2nd St. MORRISTOWN, N.J. (UPI) Doctors and a nursing home ethics committee agreed Thursday Karen Ann Quinlan has no reasonable possibility of recovering and they would not administer extraordinary care it the comatose patient's condition worsens.

A spokesman for the newly formed ethics committee said Karen's parents, Julia and Joseph Quinlan, met for several hours with the committee and all unanimously agreed they would maintain "normal levels" of treatment but would not reconnect her with a respirator. "All parties concerned agree that normal levels of nutrition and antibiotics will be given," said Donald L. Berlin, attorney for Morris View Nursing Home in nearby Morris Township and one of seven members on the ethics committee. Berlin said the nursing home would not reconnect Miss Quinlan to the respirator comfortable" since she was weaned from the respirator late in May. "We have no idea how long she'll be able to survive," Mrs.

Quinlan said. "But we feel we have to follow our own consciences. We could never, never stop feeding her. Mrs. Quinlan said the New Jersey Supreme Court decision was a much-needed one to clarify what medical authorities can do if they are caring for a patient who has no hope of recovery.

"It's a matter of a person's conscience. I think you have to take each case individually," Mrs. Quinlan said, adding that her daughter did not suffer any trauma from Wednesday night's move from St. Clare's to the red brick 370-bed nursing home. Mrs.

Quinlan said her daughter "did beautifully" during the move. Sitting next to her husband, she thanked all the medical personnel who cared for Miss' Quinlan during her stay at St. Clare's. and there is no heart pacemaker' equipment at the nursing home. He said Miss Quinlan would be given only "normal amouts of antibiotics" if infection develops.

Berlin said the nursing home would follow the guidelines established by the New Jersey Supreme Court when it ruled on March 31 the Quinlans had the right to remove all extraordinary life support mechanisms. At a brief news conference, the Quinlans said they were "extremely happy" with the ethics committee's decision. "This was the reason we went to court. We just wanted her removed from the respirator to let her breathe on her own," said Mrs. Quinlan.

She said St. Clare's Hospital, where Miss Quinlan was treated for 13 monthts, would have reconnected the respirator if her daughter needed it. Mrs. Quinlan said her 22-year-old daughter is "much more peaceful and k- 4 i Jr. 7i 2 1 -S, tot No.
