Five Years Is Steep Penalty For One Speeding Moment

A car crash near Huntsville in 1959 left Edward Lee Pollard comatose for five years after a Fayetteville fair trip. Pollard, then 20, survived a crash into a utility pole while a companion urged slower driving. He remains unconscious, despite doctors saying he would die, as his grandmother Mrs. McElyea cares for him amid rising medical bills.
