Runaway Steam Roller Imperils Engineer's Life
Fay Manigold guided a multi ton steam roller up Richart hill on East State Street as the machine sped down the grade for about 500 feet. He held on to keep the roller from wrecking the road and narrowly escaped being crushed when the roller left the track and toppled into a ditch. He suffered bruises cuts while the roller was damaged but repairable, and County Highway Superintendent L. L. Bover praised his brave, risky action.
