Engineer F. L. Mitchell said the diesel powered freight was traveling about 42 miles an hour when the dccident occurred. None of the crew of five, was injured. The engineer said many of the animals were shot, but that some of them will be trapped until the wreckage is cleared. S e STOPPING TRAFFIC in Washington—plays guard on his 5 AKRON—(#—Four way stop signs are beoing tried at some Akron in- tersections, Traffic Captain E. L. Engelhart hopes that stopping traf- fic gomg both ways will cut acci- dents. On the rare oecasions when cars from all four directions stop at the same time, Engelhart admits there is some confusion. The car on the right has the right of way, but in such cases everyone is on the right. of somebody else. Even if all started at once, however, Engelhart points out that no one could be going very fast if collisions took place. - e .- TOWNSEND (LUB T " MEET AT 8 TONIGHT The townsend Club will hold a meeting tohight at 8 o'clock at the .ome of Mrs. Hans Neilson, 1035 West Eighth Street.
