BETHESDA, Md., September 18.— An 18-year-old hitch-hiker, Nelson Kraft of York, Pa, escaped with a bruised foot and brush burns of the leg early today when struck by a hit- and-run motorist on Wisconsin avenue. Kraft stepped into the roadway shortly after 5 o'clock to wave down an approaching car, but the driver sped on, the front wheel of his car passing over Kraft'’s foot, at the same time striking his leg. ‘The youth, together with two other York boys, Daniel Kennedy, 16, and Russell Kore, 18, was attempting to “thumb” a ride home when the mishap occurred. His companions were asleep on the ground a short distance away. We is namin’ our ship. We is singin’ “The Star Spangled Banner,” an’ has our hats off.

In the modern version of “The Spirit of "76,” he’s the one who's beat- ing so hard on the eardrum. Still it's a grand thing—but surprising—to find a newspaper editor who talks forcibly on his feet instead of writing feebly on his seat. 3 On the other hand Uncle Jack Gar- ner continues to be the ideal back-seat driver—the one who hasn’t said & single word during the entire trip.
