Sholty, of Brigham City was fatally injured when he was crushed between the rear of his standing automoble and an oncoming vehicle driven by Eldred A Johnson, of Vernal. Sheriff fracReuben Snyder suffered tures of both legs. The accident happened on Highway 40 about fifteen miles wfest of Duchesne on the hill this aid- - of the flat. All three cars in the accident were traveling toward Ta-bo- ne Duchesne. 'Sheriff Snyder, accompanied by Jack Helco, of Vernal, found Mr. Sholty, and Elmer F. Perry, of Salt Lake City, stuck. They d could not climb the slick, hill. 'Sheriff Snyder, who had chains on his car, towed them to the top of the hill and on down the other side for about a hundred yards, where the two cars stopped on the shoulder of the highway to remove the chains. iSheriff Snyder was between the 'two cars, and Mr. Sholty and Mr. 'Perry behind the rear car, when the automobile driven by Mr. Johnson, came over the hill., and crashed into the rear end of the Sholty machine, and crushed Mr. Sholtys legs. The impact drove the two standing cars together, with Sheriff SnyMr. Perry der between them. was able to leap to safety. Mr. Helco also was uninjured in the wreck. In company with Mr. Johnson were Jack R. Wallis, Barbara Preece, Lois McCaral, (Miss Collier and another Miss Preece. None of the occupants of the Johnson machine were seriously injured. Pr. Perry started for Heber immediately with Mr. Sholty but the injured man died before they reached Heber. A physician, who examined the body said that he died from multiple fractures of the legs and extreme shock. Sheriff Snyder was taken to Roosevelt, where he was given first aid and then taken on to Vernal. It appears that when the Johnson machine, loaded with young people returning home from Provo, broke over the hill it went into a skid, then partially straightened up before hitting the Sholty automobile and came to a stop on the opposite side of road. Sheriff Arzy Mitchell investigated the accident, but has not yet made his detailed report. snow-covere- FITIM Mildred Muir Mrs. Fay Killian of Mtn.
