Escape Injury
In Truck Crash

A collision n the intersection
of Route IL and Commerce
Street in Smyrna at 1880 pm,
Tuesday resulted in property
damage estimated at $4,000, but
no one was injured. A tractor
trailer driven by Elwood Gard
ner, of Swedesboro, New Jer-
sey, owned by Buena Truck
Rental, Inc, going north on
Route Is hit a vehicle in which
were five high school students,
driven by Hannah Ross, owned
by Charles E. Ross of Smyrna,
going west on Commerce Street.
After hitting the Ross car the
tractor went out of control,
crossed the center strip to the
southbound lane of Route l3,
hit the wall of a parking lot,
and a parked car owned by AL
bert H. Barthelmeth of Clayton.
The Bartlemeth car was pushed
into a car owned by Irwin G.
Burton, Inc, and stopped with
the front end of the truck on
the grass plot, blocking the
southbound lane of U. S. Route
l3. The car out of control also
tore the awning down in front
of the Burton Garage. The Bar
thelmeth and Burton cars were
parked in front of the garage.
Gardner was taken before Mag
istrate Franklin E. English and
charged with failing to use due
care and caution; was fined $25
and costs and released. The col
lision was investigated by Smy-
ma and assisted by State Police.

School Students
View Production
OF 'Pinocchio'

Between 600 and 700 elemen-
tary school children were tran
sported to the Land of Make
Believe last Wednesday after
noon in the high school audi
torium, when they saw the
Children's Theatre of the Uni
versity of Delaware's produc-
ton of Pinocchio. The staging
and costuming were of a quail
ity which has always been ex-
pected of the University pro-
ductions, and the magic of Pin
occhio's nose getting longer
when he told lies held true. The
rapturous sounds which greeted
the appearance of the Blue
Fairy were the same as have
greeted the cast in previous
plays, and the shrieks of gIee
when all goes well for Pinocch-
10 showed how deeply involved
the children were in the play.
The voiciferous expression of
the children when asked if they
liked the play left no doubt
that the production should be
brought to local children next
year. The PTA UNDERWRITERS the
presentation each year and it is
an advantage to children who
have no other opportunity to
see actual plays with real peo-
pie.
