Two persons were only slightly
injured when a 1855 Pontiac was
badly damaged as it struck the
rear of a road roller, south OF

morning.
The car driven and owned by
Howard L. Kerwood, of West
Virginia, was travelling north.

vented him from stopping. The
vehicle was reported as badly
damaged and the two riders,
Mrs. H. l.. Kerwood and Mrs.
Ora Kerwood received Iacera-

fined $1,000 and costs for speed
ing. The vehicle was returned
