NEGRO INJURED IN
HEAD On COLLISION

Tom Raburn, a negro automobile
driver for the Hudson Transfer Co.,
was painfully injured early Friday
morning about six miles from Ameri-
Gus on the Plains road when a Ford
car which he was driving met the
large tank truck of the Gulf Refining
Co. in head-on collision.
The Ford car was owned by the
transfer company, and was almost
completely demolished. 3aburn re-
ceived several severe gashes.
1t appears that the cars met in the
early morning when the fog was heavy
and that Raburn turned to the left n
the causing the collision.

This is What
We Call Meet
Half Way

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 2S.-Cobb
county and Fulton county, represent
ed by their respective commissioners,
met with unique ceremonies in the
middle of the bridge over the Chatta-
hoochee river yesterday, to open bids
and award the contract for the new
steel bridge at that place.
Under the state law, the only place
it could legally be done was in the
exact middle of the river. If the old
bridge had been blown away they
would have had to transact their busi-
ness in boat.
