A severe skull fracture caused the death of Mrs. Lucy Hoffman, 24, who died in Sherman hospital, Elgin,' a short time after being admitted. She never regained consciousness. Her husband, Sgt.

Hoffman arrived home the day before the accident to enjoy a short furlough from army duties at Camp Bowie, Texas. He and his family were out riding on the fateful afternoon and were enroute back to Chicago when the accident occurred. Two conflicting stories were told. Hoffman told state police that as We reached the. bottom of the long, steep hill, a truck backed out onto the highway frbm the Terra Cotta factory and that he swerved to the left side of the highway to avoid a collision. He said he didn't know What happened after that. Louis Jesse of Crystal Lake, driver of the truck, told a different version of the accident, which was corroborated by his helper, Clare Ross, also of Crystal Lake. They told police they were ^traveling south on the highway and denied the truck, was backing out of the driveway. ' Jesse said he was traveling at a moderate speed when Hoffman approached from the rear and turned out to go by his truck. The automobile went out of control when it passed the truck and it tipped over several times. ! Police found marks on the pavement indicating that the car traveled 286 feet as it skidded and rolled along the highway, finally coming to a stop in an upright position. All except Sgt.

Thomas C. Wilson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Wilson of tills city, was recently awarded the Silver Star for gallantry in action while on duty with the fifth army in northern Italy. The decoration was presented by Major General Paul Kendall, commanding general of the eigthty-eighth Blue Devil infantry division, in which Thomas served as a member of the 351st spearhead regiment. Pfc. Wilson was cited for his part in night patrol action in which three Germans were killed and one captured. He and four comrades, clad in white, entered a snow covered mountain town pne winter nfght a^te* climbing a steep embankment and fording a small swiftly flowing stream. The four quickly disposed of an enemy sentry and shot two more nazis as they ran from the building. Wilson fired through the window and ordered the surrender of other occupants. A fourth German emerged and he was immediately disarmed and marched out of town. The piatrol withdrew^ and were near friendly lines when one member stepped on a mine, whereupon a flare lighted the entire area. Two enemy machine guns opened fire on the Yanks. Pfc.
