DERRICK FELL ON BOY CAUSING ARM INJURIES IN RANCH ACCIDENT
A derrick at W R Hylton's Huntington valley ranch collapsed on Elmer Hylton injuring both arms below the elbow and face bruises. George Hanna rushed the boy to Elko for medical care taking nearly three hours for the trip. The Nixon family requested a bank name change from Nixon National to Reno National after selling their stock, a move not reflecting on Senator Nixon. A Gardnerville Courier note recalls gambling shifts from back rooms to legalized venues, with fear of police intervention remaining part of the appeal.
