When Car Crashes Into Side Of Train
Near Kincardine
Four young people, three Americans
and one Canadian, were killed early
Saturday when their car struck a Can-
adian National Railways train at e.
level crossing just south of Kincar-

about 21, Sarnia; Daniel Leithauser,
about 21, Grosse Point, Mich., Francia
M. Slater, 23, Grosse Point, Mich.,
Robert Henry Pipper, 23, St. Peters-
burg, Florida.
' Provincial Constable Bruce Woods,
of Kincardine, who investigated the
accident, said that the car had driven
into the side of the train and had been
carried about 150 feet along the
tracks. The car was demolished, and
three of the bodies were strewn along
the tracks, Three were killed instantly,
while Slater died shortly after on the
way to Kincardine General Hospital.
The train, in charge of Engineer

cardine passenger train,
The crossing was the scene of an-
other fatal accident just over a year
ago, when three people in a car were
