- GAS PUMP BLAZE STARTED BY CRASH . Head-on Collision Puts Two ‘in Hospital—Valve Saves Underground Fuel. A head-on automobile collision on the Washington-Baltimore Boulevard at Berwyn, Md. last night sent two persons to Casualty Hospital and fired a gasoline pump when the im- pact swerved one car into a roadside service station. Frederick H. Miller of Beltsville, driver of one of the vehicles, was treated for head injuries at the hos- pital where physicians reported his condition as “fair.” The other victim, Harry Gusack, 50, of 1900 F street, riding in an auto driven by Dr. Thomas L. Furbershaw of 4422 Ma- comb street, left the hospital after first aid for minor injuries. A friction spark, generated from the impact, exploded fuel in ‘the pump, but a safety valve was closed to pro- tect 500 gallons of fuel stored in an underground tank. Fire apr=ratus from the surrounding territory answered a general alarm to ex- tingush flames in both cars before much damage had been caused. The | pump, at Parker's Service Station, was demolished. Two witnesses, Edward Harris o(\\ Beltsville, and Ray Winston of Berwyn, pulled four persons out of the | Furbershaw car after a hole had been | cut in the vehicle’s top. The collision had jammed the car’s doors. | Accidents in the Capital yesterday | resulted in injuries to five persons, two of them boys. James E. Roberts, 65, Annapolis Hotel, suffered brain concussion and | other head injuries when struck by a | street car at New York avenue and | Twelfth street. He was trcated at Emergency Hospital.

CLIPPER LOSES DAY CROSSINGDATELINE Arrives at Midway Yester- day After Leaving Wake at Sunrise Today. BY CHARLES E. HARNER. 8y the Associated Press. MIDWAY ISLAND, October 22.— The China Clipper arrived at Midway Island yesterday after taking off from Wake Island at sunrise today. All of which sounds crazy, and time is like that aboard a trans-Pacific air- | liner. -~ The international date line is re- sponsible. If you cross the date line going westward on Tuesday, it be- comes Wednesday. If you travel east- ward, Wednesday becomes Tuesday. ‘We five reporters, who are returning to New York in a preview round-trip transcontinental-trans-Pacific passen- ger flight, have become “tic-tocs.” Each passenger who never before had crossed the famous date line eastward was initiated at a “tic” in the Time- Out Club. Those of us completing the New York-Manila round trip conse- quently became “tic-tocs"—time-in, time-out.
