 Struck By Auto
 Wiley Hyde, was struck by an au- tomobile Tuesday afternoon as he was running for the school bus to convey him to his home. The youth suffered a severe bruise on the head and several other slight bruises. The driver of the auto stopped and of fered to take the little fellow to his home but Wiley preferred to go on the bus and the automobilist went on without giving his name. The school boy was none the worse for his in iuries and it is improbable that ac- tion will be taken by local police to- wards locating the driver who hit him.
