Escapees Recaptured Thursday Two Colorado State Penitentiary inmates, who commandeered a prison vehicle and took five hostages in an escape attempt Thursday, were recaptured about three miles south of Colorado Springs by state patrolmen and El Paso County Sheriff's Deputies.

The escapees, James L. Bruebaker of Colorado Springs and John M. Herring, were being transferred from the penitentiary to the State Hospital in Pueblo in a prison station wagon. Three other prisoners and two guards in the vehicle were taken hostage when Herring produced two homemade handguns which he had hidden in the soles of his shoes. Bruebaker and Herring took control of the station wagon and headed north on Colorado 115 toward Colorado Springs.

The hostages were released near the county line. The two guards were handcuffed to a fence and the other three inmates were left behind when they refused 1 to go along with escape. Bruebaker and Herring continued toward Colorado Springs in the vehicle while being pursued by five State Patrol cars and cars from the El Paso County Sheriff's Office. Their vehicle went out of control and skidded into a fence and the two escapees attempted to flee on foot but stopped when patrolmen fired several shots at them. The convicts were recaptured at about 2:30 p.m., less than one hour after the escape attempt began.

Bruebaker was serving a term for aggravated robbery and Herring was serving time for murder. Bruebaker escaped from the penitentiary in July of 1974 but was recaptured by Denver police in November. While he was on the loose during that span, Colorado Springs police were told that he was hiding in an apartment house in the eastern portion of the city. Police cordoned off the apartment house and evacuated the building, but the tip was false. After they were captured, Bruebaker and Herring were taken to the Colorado Springs state patrol office and later transferred back to the penitentiary.

The guns they had made and hidden in their shoes were constructed from a hollow pipe and were loaded with .22 caliber shells. The first car to eliminate running boards from its design was the 1937 Cord. A.M. EST May 2 Data From NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE, NOAA, U.S. Depl.

Auto Industry Predicted DETROIT (AP) Chrysler Corp. lost a record $94.1 million in the first quarter of 1975. But the auto industry as a whole is expected to turn a profit this quarter and for the remainder of the year. "The worst is now over," said an analyst for a major investment house in New York. "The companies have cut costs.

and sales will pick up. The industry will return decisively to black ink in the second quarter." Chrysler reported Thursday it had operating losses of $127 million in the January-March period. However, an accounting change and a tax credit reduced the loss by some $33 million. Even so, the net loss was the largest in the firm's 50-year history. In the first quarter last year, Chrysler showed a $1.6 million profit.

Ford Motor with pretax losses of $158 million in the quarter, also used an accounting change and tax credit to cut net losses to $10.6 million, (its first quarterly loss in eight in years.

Woodmoor Plan Due Hearing A possible reorganization plan of the Woodmoor Corp.

was scheduled to be heard in U.S. Bankruptcy Court 2 in Denver at 2 p.m. today. In October a similar hearing was held in U.S. District Court wherein the court-appointed trustee, Harlon Holben, and Woodmoor President Steven Arnold presented a re-organization plan.

Another plan was also presented by Westinghouse Financial which holds a $13 million debt against the company. Holben's plan called for re-organization through a tightening firm's operation, selling unnecessary holdings, resuming sale of lots in three Colorado subdivisions and establishing a method of debentures for those holding claims. Westinghouse called for re-organization by infusing $8 million in new capital into the firm over the next three years. According to reports, Westinghouse, which said it would buy $20.000 worth of trustee certificates each month, is stopping its purchases. Westinghouse, the Kissel and Colorado National Bank are all large Woodmoor creditors.

Also arriving at Utapao were 27 F5 fighters, a C47 transport and scores of other aircraft which would be valuable to the new rulers of South Vietnam, Although the That government indicated the planes would be returned to South Vietnam, Schlesinger said Thursday, "The United States retains title to all aircraft that have been given under assistance programs.

"It retains ultimate title so I would not think that we would have difficulty in reasserting title to those aircraft." For the planes, guns and other material still in South Vietnam, a new Communist leadership must decide whether it's worth it to them to turn it to their military purposes. Officials said Thursday that the most expensive items could run only for a short time before spare parts would be needed. They acknowledged that the Soviet Union or China may even manufacture the parts, but one knowledgeable source noted U.S. attempts to produce ammunition for the basic Russian infantry rifle, the AK48. "We just decided it was too expensive and gave it up," he said.

There is an estimated $1 billion in airports, port facilities and communications bases captured largely intact by the North Vietnamese in the South. Chief among them is Cam Ranh Bay, a huge complex used for years as the principal delivery point for the U.S. military in the northern part of South Vietnam. Officials said that while Cam Ranh served American purposes ideally, the North Vietnamese will have little use for the facility. Indeed.
