Mrs. Herr and a companion died of asphyxiation in a car near Thackerville, Okla. She was an employee at Weber Aircraft.

An auxiliary deputy of the Love County Sheriff's office spotted the car at 8:23 a.m. parked at the south end of old Highway 77, with the motor running. Two doctors called to the scene pronounced death by accidental asphyxiation.
