Speers Recovers After 65 Foot Fall at Connecticut Light Plant

Speers, 28, a Milford area fiancé of Marguerite Hurley, fell 65 feet through an opening on the third floor of a Connecticut Light & Power plant in Devon and survived a skull fracture and broken ankle. Surgeons led by Dr. C. K. Kleady removed seven pieces of crushed skull. Speers shows remarkable recovery at Milford Hospital and may wed in the autumn, delaying plans for a June 16 ceremony and a furnished flat at 279 Myrtle Avenue.
