A Ford car occupied by Messrs.

and Steve Baker did an unusual
stunt sa those gentlemen were COM

work on Senator R. L. Hubble's new

slow pace when the crossing in front
Of Mrs. Mary Owsley's home was
struck. The front wheel bounced
around and in an instant the machine
had turned turtle. Baker was con-
siderably bruised up but the rest es-
capped injury. What made the liz

never be known, but it made things
interesting for a few seconds.
