Tractor Trailer Is
Ditched To Avert
Crash On Route 135

A serious accident was averted
Sunday when tractor-trailer
driver ditched the rig after the
brakes got hot as the vehicle de-
scended Maryland route 135 west
of Bloomington.
A passenger in the cab of the
tractor, Dorothy Edwards, 81, of
Logan, w. Va, was injured when
she leaped from the vehicle which
went out of control and plum
meted down an embankment into
wooded area.
Joseph Gasle, SO, of Cincinnati,
o., driver, was slightly injured in
the crash which occurred at 2:25
about one mile west of Blooming
ton.
Trooper Bruce Diehl of the State
Police, said the accident could
have been worse had the driver
decided to take the tractor-trailer
on down the highway. The trooper
said quite a few children were
playing in the Bloomington area
near the highway.
The rig was carrying electrical
equipment used by the L. l.
Thomas Joyland Shows which is
presenting a carnival in Wester-
port this week
Miss Edwards was treated by a
Piedmont physician. She sustained
abrasions of the nose and upper
lip and injuries to her legs when
she leaped from the cab. The
driver sustained injuries and was
treated at the carnival grounds in
Westernport. Police said the rig
ripped out four or five steel guard
rails when it left the highway.
The vehicle remained on its
wheels but was badly damaged
Police said the driver related he
was operating the vehicle in low
second when the brakes got hot.
