The car was struck squarely and a moment later, he was picked up fifty feet north of the crossing where he had been thrown into a ditch with one of the car doors. He was rushed to the Evanston Hospital where physicians deter- mined his injuries were confined to several scalp wounds and other minor bruises. It was not thought he had suffered internal injuries.
