meath on Sunday.
TAKEN TO HOSPITAL
Steering Gear Goes Wrong at
Stern's Hill Curve Just
North of Zion City.

A party of Kenoshans returning
from a formal dancing party at Wau-
kegan late Saturday night were given
an opportunity to enroll themselves
in the hearts. of three people from
Waukegan as ''life-savers." The Ke-
nosha party included Joseph POLAND,
driver of the. car, Phillip Hertzberg
and Miss Dorothy Hertzberg, all of
III Rowland avenue, and Miss jean
nette Crystal, AGA Market street. They
had attended a party at Waukegan and
were on their way home to Kenosha
at 1880 when, just as they had passed
through Zion City, Hertzberg noticed
a heap of something that looked like
wreckage at the side of the road near
one of the dangerous turns in that
vicinity. Closer investigation reveal
ed that it was a Chevrolet coupe that
had turned turtle and rolled off the
main highway distance of ten feet,
pinning its occupants under the
wreckage.
Give First Aid Treatment.
Hertzberg and POLAND at once at
tempted to remove the people, a man
and two women, from the ruins of the
wreck and ascertain how badly they
were hurt. All three were cut and
bruised considerably and none was
moved from the wreck. Hertzberg,
who is a druggist in the employ of
the Mayer Drug company, administer
ed first aid to the injured people and
after bandaging up the wounds as
best he. could, they were rushed to
the Kenosha hospital where DR.. c.
H. Gephart was called. An examina-
ton at the hospital revealed that the
injured people were all suffering
from weakness due to the loss of
blood and their bruises. They gave
their names at the hospital as Jacob
Makela, driver of the car, 534 South
avenue, Waukegan, and the Misses
Bieno Sahala and Hilma Narba, both
Of Waukegan. They had been on their
way home to Waukegan after spend
ing the day before motoring to the
lakes.
At the hospital it was declared that
it was most fortunate for the accident
victims that they were rescued at the
time they were, for the loss of blood
of all three people was already such
as to make their condition precarious.
Later in the day they had recovered
sufficiently to be able to tell the story
of the accident. Makela declared that
the steering gear went wrong just
as they were negotiating one of the
sudden curves near Storms Hill just
north of Zion City, and the car left
the road rolling mass. He was I'M
able to tell how long the car had laid
at the side of the road before aid
came, but he added that it was seemed
IAN awfully long time"
