Mrs. Della Finn, 28, of 20941 Lahser Rd., Detroit, was taken to Bowmanville Hospital as the re- suit of a collision between ber eastbound car and a westbound truck driven by Izzy Soukalsky, 38 Lippincott St., Toronto. Mrs. Finn suffered a depressed fracture of the skull, but pressure on the brain was flot sufficient to war- rant an immediate operation. Her son Charles, age 4, was asleep on the rear seat and escaped serious injuries. Neither the truck driver, nor bis brother Arron, who was .asleep in the cab, were injured. The accident occurred on the bend east of Alexander's Garage, when the truck driver is belîeved to have lost control of bis truck, which collided with the ligbt car, and tore one side of the body completely off, leaving the bended and twisted wreckage trailing be- hind. The truck was also damag- ed considerably. Mr. Soukalsky bas been charg- ed witb criminal negligence by Provincial Traffic Officer W. F. Thompson, wbo investigated. Ac- cused bas been released on $2000 bail. Dr. V. H. Storey rendered medi- cal aid to the injured woman and ordered her removal to the hospi- tal. Her son, suffering only minor cuts and bruises, was also taken to hospital. Last Tuesday afternoon another Detroit resident, Louis Charrette died from injuries received in an accident three miles west of the town. Police are afraid that with the disappearance of ice and snow on the highways, there may be a sharp increase in accidents in the next few weeks.
