Quick Move by Checker Champion Thrown on Bridge
Cedar Falls, June 27 Special Solomon Thompson, Cedar Falls's champion checker player, made a quick move when he jumped from the Illinois Central bridge to avoid an approaching train. He fell and sustained bruises but escaped serious injury while fishing nearby. Arthur Kingman bought a new automobile at Indianapolis but left it at Clinton due to bad roads and will return to fetch it. Relatives in town include Mrs. J. H. Van Dyke and Mrs. Leslie Munn en route to Denver and Minneapolis respectively. Mrs. Al Bundy recovery from a recent operation remains fragile under the heat. Rev. and Mrs. J.
