the depression of the 30's when

TRUCK MIRACULOUSLY
AVOID'S CAR CRASH
What most assuredly would
have been a fatal truck-car crash
Was narrowly avoided here on
Monday morning when a 10 ton
Fisher truck; from Listowel, loaded
with screenings, swerved to miss
a car and tipped over on its side.
The Fisher .truck, driven by
Carl Gill, accompanied by Chris
Thedorff of Trowbridge was
travelling north on Brussels main
St:•eet when a ear driven by Vern
Hupter of Brussels proceeded out
of the Mill street east intersection
across the street directly into the
Path. of the truck. The truck
driver, to miss tbe car, swerved
around the west Mill street corner
and the truck turned over, at the
side of the Rosy Korner Restaur-
ant.
The Hupfer car received only a
dented left fender and the driver
was not injured. The occupants of
the truck fortunately escaped
with a shaking up and shock.
In tipping over the truck cab
landed on the hood of Hugh
Pearson's truck damaging it ex-
tensively.
It was indeed fortunate that the
drivel' of the truck had the pres
ence of mind and the quick re'
action that enabled' him to avoid
crashing into the car,
The accident drew a lot of
3:).e,ctators.who lingered -to' witness
the righting of the truck and the
Cleanup of the spilled tons of
screenings. Many remarked on
the absence of pigeons, once so
numerous, here, to enjoy a. good
feed, Perhaps they have found
their way into, pigeon pies.
Monday Seemed,,to he the clay
for truck accidents as another
involving two trucks occurred at.
Cranbrook.
Troaks Collide At Cranbrook
A large grain truck driven by
Harry johnsoli, MoKillop Twp.
and a, smaller trtick, with Mr. and
Mrs. Hilton 'Ward as occupants,
