M. E. Anderson
Dies Sunday
In Car Crash
By Mrs. J. L. Hurst
Rexford (Special )-Morris
Anderson. 2d trick operator at the
Great Northern Station in Rexford
was killed early Sunday morning
in a car accident.
Mr. Anderson was enroute to Eur
eka alone, and apparently was driv
mg at a high rate of speed when he
crashed into the left concrete abut-)
ment at the south end of the
Tobacco River bridge. The impact
of the crash drove the engine back!
almost to the center of the Ford
car and pinned the victim's body
against the steering wheel. The
doors burst open and Anderson was
thrown free of the car.
At this same time Kenneth and
Everett Byers were returning from
a dance at Eureka. The boys left
their car at the Uan Ingram^\anch
as had been their custom, and con
tinued on foot the short distance
to their home on The Island. Shortly
after leaving the Ingram place, they
heard a terrific crash and saw
flames by the bridge.
Hurrying to investigate the boys
found the smashed car hanging pre
canously on the edge of th<f em
bankment. and Mr. Anderson lying
beside the running board. They
succeeded in carrying the unfor
tunatc man down the embankment,
before the gasoline tank exploded,
f alive when found bu
died a few minutes later without

for the first time in our nation's
history, organized prompt relief was

time, in war and peace, the Red
