In the car with Miss Tucker was
Miss Viola Eickhoff, Robert Gray and
Ervin Larson, of Page. None of the
others were seriously injured. Miss

some of the others were somewhat
bruised.
The other car was driven by a fel
low called “Red” who just recently
came to O’Neill. He was accompa
nied by several young fellows of this

It seems that both care were in the

it was too late. “Red’s” car was badly
damaged while the Larson car was
able to get home with its own power
^that night.
