Gar Into Path of Another
Eight Miles North

In a two car crash, which occurred
eight miles north of Clare Saturday-
forenoon on US-27, Leonard Buck-
holts, 37, of Columbus, Ohio, was so
seriously injured that he died at the

of the car, who suffered a fractured
skull and OU}e Griffith 32, suffered
hip injuries and lacerations. John
Geyer, 39, and Wm. F. Deibert, 29,
escaped with minor bruises. All five

was driving the other car, was taken
to the local hospital suffering from, a
possible fractured skull and other injuries. His wife, Helen, 41, and
daughter, Doris 15, also suffered
painful cuts and bruises about their
heads.
In a statement to Sgt. Wagner, of

that the Ohio machine swerved onto
his side of the road so suddenly that
he had no chance of preventing the
crash. .This statement was verified
by Paul Fultz, of Lansing, who was
following the Lippert car.
A small piece of inner tubing,
which was found a short distance
back from the scene of accident, and
said to have matched that of the.
Ohio car's tire', strongly' indicated
that it was a blow-out and one of
those accidents that is unavoidable.
The two men, who were only slightly
bruised, could not give any information as to the cause of the mishap
as they were asleep in the back seat
at the time of the crash.

DOGS WILL NOT BE
rERMITTED-TORUN
LOOSE IN CAME AREA
New Law Requires Officers to
Shoot Stray Dogs in Woods
Out of Season
A law was enacted in the recent
session of the State Legislature requiring Conservation . officers to
shoot all dogs found running loose in-
game areas, except during the several
seasons open for hunting.
In .the past dogs have been permitted to run at large, often chasing
deer, rduting game birds from their
nests and otherwise molesting .them.
Deer, pheasants and other game, disturbed in their natural habitat, will
not thrive and in time this situation
would prove to be a serious setback
to Conservation and plentiful hunting.
Because of the abundance of natural cover in this locality,- this law WiU
prove especially beneficial to the people in and: around Clare county." The
cooperation of all dog owners will be
appreciated "by the conservation officers and the Rod and Gun Club, as
well as the public, and it is suggested that if you have a dog that you
do not value enough to care for, that
you give' it to someone who will give
it a good home and keep it under control or dispose of it, otherwise.
