Show BOYS INJURED, CARS DESTROYED IN CRASH NEAR MINERSVILLE Three Milford boys carry lacerations lacera-tions and bruises and two cars are total to-tal wrecks as a result of a smash up on the Milfort Minersville highway Sunday night at nine o'clock. C. J. Hamel's car, driven by Albert Rains, crashed into the rear of the Nash driven by Carl Klausner when-the when-the latter parked on the highway, smashing the rear end of the Nash and overturning the Hamel car. A few minutes after the wreck, the Hamel car burst into flames and was completely com-pletely destroyed. Rains had been sent by Hamel to Minersville to get some motion picture pic-ture equipment. Rulon Hollingshead and Elmer Klausner were with him. Hamel later started for Minersvlle in the Chevrolet of J. S. Aflic. On his way to Minersville he saw the Nash driven by Carl Klausner approaching and thinking that it was Rains flagged flag-ged it. As Klausner stopped, Rains who was driving behind him crashed into the rear end of his car. The car Rains was driving turned turtle tur-tle and Hollingshead, Elmer Klausner and Rains were found to be badly cut and bruised when they were removed from the wreck. The injured boys were immediately brought to town by N. J. Donlin near whose ranch the accident ac-cident had occurred. Hamel righted the overturned car, removed the motion picture films that it carried and a few minutes later it burst into flames, probably from the broken wiring coming in contact with the gasoline which soaked the engine. |
