AUTO STRUCK POLE
AFTER GOING OFF ROAD.
Barre Man Has Fractured Skull and
Others Were Less Seriously
Injured.

An automobile containing five men
went off the road and against tele-
phone pole, near the Hornbrook farm
in Berlin, between Mortified and Mont
pelier, early Sunday morning Celeste
Manini received fracture of the skull,
Ansel Stefanazzi suffered cut tongue
and INJURY to his chin, a brother, of
Manini injured one knee, man named
Bottaro had a cut on his hand and the
fifth is thought to have escaped injury.
The man with a fractured skull is in
Heaton hospital at Montpelier.
The men who were not seriously in
iured claim that the accident was due
to the bursting of a tire on the right
front wheel, while others declare after
investigation that the car must have
been driven rather fast. The vehicle
Travelled more than 100 feet in the
grass before it crashed into the pole
with a side-swiping motion. The left
side of the car was badly damaged,
and the car, Buick bearing the regis
tration l0-740, was brought to the Pal
ace garage in Barre.
The Montpelier police were notified
of the accident, and w. $. Teachout of
the secretary of states Office was also
Icalled. They found that the machine
ran along the edge of four-foot en-
bankment, and it was a wonder to
them that the car did not oterturn
there.
