ARMY TRUCK WRECKS
BILLIARD PARLOR
Crashes Into Front OF Building
Driver Seriously Injured

Getting out of control of the driv-
er and running wild down Foundry
Hill, Port Deposit, a big truck of the
United States Marine Corps. Guam
tico, Virginia, loaded with six thous-
and pounds of sugar, crashed thru
the front of billiard parlor operated
by Brown & Cunningham at the foot
of the hill, late Thursday afternoon,
and completely wrecked the build
ing.
Fred Brown, one of the owners,
and Russell LIuuell were in the pool
Darlor at the time and saw the truck
careening toward the structure.
They started to run out the back
way, but just as they reached rear
door the truck hit the front of the
lace between the show window and
he door. 1t crashed through the
partition, pushing pool tables about
and jammed the wreckage INTO the
rear wall. Brown and I.iddell were
hurled through the rear door, but es-
capped with minor cuts and bruises.
The truck was driven by Matthew
Pietsvak, and he was accompanied
by John Henry. AS it descended the
steep grade, near the hospital form
erly conducted by DR.. G. H. Rich
ards, it became unmanageable.
Henry jumped when he saw that it
was beyond control and a few NOM
ents later, just before the vehicle hit
the store front, Pietsvak also leap
ed for his life. Both men were
taken to the Havre de Grace Hos
pital in private automobile, where
it was found that Pietsvak is suffer-
ing from decorations of the face and
head, with a possible fracture Of the
skull His condition is only report
ed as fair. Henry was uninjured.
The heavy truck crushed the front
of the building and was only brought
to a stop when one Of the wheels
broke through the floor. Only the
rear of the vehicle was visible from
the outside, the truck going clear
into the room.
This is the second accident of
similar nature to occur at the same
point, when car some years ago
struck the front of the building.
