Wonder Lake road Tuesday, and then struck another car as she moved her auto to avoid blocking traffic following the first accident. Irene M. Millard told Sheriff's police that she was turning north onto E. Wonder Lake road, when her car was struck by another vehicle. The driver of the second car, Ruth C. Kinzie, 4215 E. Wonder Lake, Wonder Lake, stated that she was southbound on E. Wonder Lake road when the Millard auto entered her lane of traffic. Ms. Kinzie explained that she swerved but couldn't avoid a collision. Evidence at the scene in­ dicated to Sheriff's deputies that the accident occurred in the southbound lane and Ms. Millard was ticketed for im­ proper lane usage. Following the accident, Ms. Millard was directed by Deputy Bore of the Sheriff's depart­ ment to drive into a parking lot to turn around, so that her car would not be obstructing traffic. According to the police report, she turned around and when pulling back onto E. Wonder Lake road from Center street, she struck a passing car driven by Jeanette M. Brenner, 7720 Brook drive, Wonder Lake. None of the drivers involved were injured in the mishaps.

An approaching car traveling eastbound on Main street, driven by Curtis A. Freund, 1412 Park street, McHenry, struck the Kuhns auto.

Johnson, 5014 Willow lane, started to stop for the intersection, Ms. Beyer applied her brakes but struck the back of the Johnson auto. The impact of the collision caused the Johnson auto to move forward, striking the rear of a car driven by Donald R. Pfau, which was stopped at the intersection. None of the drivers involved was injured, and Ms. Beyer was ticketed for following too closely.
