George Ross eldest son of Mr and Mrs A Earl Ross Hawarden suffered a fractured lamina of the fourth cervical vertebra in an auto accident Saturday evening near the end of the new grade on Primary No 12 extension four miles north of town. He and Hayden Dalton both of Hawarden were returning from Akron in a Ford V-8 demonstrator when they failed to make a sharp turn and rolled into a nearby field. Dalton escaped with minor bruises. Ross was seriously injured and taken to Akron Hospital then to Sioux City for neck and spine casting. Doctors believe recovery is likely but warned deeper penetration could have been fatal. Ross, connected with the family undertaking business, is a popular local golfer and is convalescing with hopes of a speedy recovery. The hazardous curve warrants immediate safety improvements to prevent further accidents.
