badly damaged and ' it seems that
nothing but a miricale prevented the
occupants of the cars from being bad
ly injured. It appears that since the
road has been put in such excellent
condition that it has become a very
dangerous curve and if something
could be done to divert the traffic
around the block by way of the bank
it might be the means of preventing'
....... . .
a senous accident in the near future.
