PUTNAM

Stance Macijewski, IS, of Peter street Webster, died Monday at St. Vincents hospital in Worcester following an acci- dent in which his leg was broken in three places and his right foot badly mangled as the result of crash of the motor cycle, with sidecar, which he was driving Sunday night and a nearly new Buick touring car owned and driven by Albert Gendreau of North Grosyenordale.
 The crash occurred just inside the Connecticut border at Perryville. Off cials here have learned that Macijewski was operating his motorcycle without lights and at an excessively high rate of speed. With a companion he had been spending few hours at North Grosven- ordale and the pair were on their way home when the accident occurred. The compnaior, whose name was not obtain able here, was not seriously hurt in the crash, nor were any of the seven occu- pants of the Buick injured.
 Deputy Sheriff Matthew Osborne, who lives a little distance from where the accident hapGeaed, was one of the first to reach the scene and render material assistance iI removing the injured man to Worcester.
 The Buick that figured in the crash was
 
 when the motorcycle crashed into ii head-on the bumper on the car was driven down over the tires in such a manner as to make it impossible for MT Gendreau to control the machine and i carshed into a state road fence. The lenders and running beard on the Ief side were taken off, the front axle ben and the car otherwise damaged
