Suffering from a fractured collar- bone, the result of an 'auto accident on the Southington road Saturday atternoon, George McCleary, an em- ploye of the Rockwell-Drake pany, 1s confined -to his hom companion in the car was'also plain- fully bruised, although his condition 1s not serious. The accident resulted from a herolc effort .on the part of the autoist to avoid running down a child who in crossing the highway became excited on seeing the machine and stepped dfrectly in its path. The driver, not having time to apply the brakes, placed his own life and that of his companion in jeopardy by ditching the machine. The child escaped un- scathed but the men in the machine were thrown out and badly battered. It was at first thought that one of them “was fatall} injured and hui calls were sent to Dr. L. ‘H. and Dr.J, N. Bull. The physiciang found that a frac- tured collarbone and minor bruises were the extent of Mr. McCleary’s in-. Juries while his companion had noth- ing more serious than cuts and mul- tiple abrasions. The action . of the autoists was most heroic as the run- ning down of the child would have been inevitable had they made an effort to save themselves. Another auto accident which for- tunately resulted only on the damag- ing of the machines concerned, the occupants escaping without injury, occurred Saturday. afternoon on the Farmington road, a Hup runabout and a large Jackson touring car com- Ang together. ‘Although the . touring car weighed nearly three tons it fared worse. than the little machine, the front part being badly damaged. Both cars will require the attention of mechanics for several days before they are in shape to drive. Surgical Dressings Aid.

Gets “Boston Guy.” Jack ‘Barry, a bridge worker, who incidentally is no kin to the baseball player whose name he bears, is awaiting arraignment before Justice A. H. Condell for drunkenness and ‘breach of the peace, the result of his arrest at an early hour this morning by Constable Marino. The officer had ordered Barry off the streets sev- eral times last night and at midnight he thought the man had shaken the dust of Plainville from his heels: Shortly after 2 o’clock this morn- ing the officer, attracted by the sound of what appeared to be two voices, went to the barns of the Newton es- tate on Whiting street and found Barry carrying on a conversation with | himself. He greeted the officer by telling him that he gets considerable amuse- ment every week by “licking” polce- men. “I'm a Boston guy, you better look out for me,” he said. Officer Marino got the twisters on his wrists and Mr. “Boston/ Guy” was soon lodged in a cell in the Town hall. Red Cross Sunday.
