Car Flips Into Ditch Near Corry In 1952 Sedan
A 1952 sedan carrying Frank Paloney Jr and Frank Jacquith rolled into a ditch along Route 426 about one mile east of Corry last night. Both occupants escaped unharmed as the car suffered about 1000 dollars in damage. The driver, 16 year old Paloney of Spring Creek, reportedly regained the road briefly before losing control again. The mishap occurred around 10:30 PM and went unreported until today as no one required medical attention. This record notes the top was crushed and the roof pressed toward the seats. Also mentioned, Greenwich, Conn benefactor Mrs Behrend will lead Wednesday ceremonies at Behrend Center presenting a five-foot replica of Admiral Perry’s Niagara.
