The toll appeared to be heaviest on Saturday, when eight persons were killed. There were no fatalities Friday night, the start of the 78-hour holiday period. What safety officials feared would be a particularly dangerous part of the weekend, the homeward rush of motorists Monday night, turned out to be one of the safest. No one was reported killed, despite heavy traffic on most state roads. The 10 deaths brought the 1961 toll to at least 673, compared with 692 at this time last year. The latest death was that of Will R. Caplinger, 23, Louisville, who was killed when a car missed a curve on U.S. 150 near Paoli Monday morning. It was driven by Ronald F. Perry, 22, also Louisville. Bert Hawk Jr., 21, Fort Wayne, was killed in a freak mishap early Sunday morning on Indiana 14, six miles west of Fort Wayne. Police said his car struck a bridge and he was thrown into a roadside ditch filled with six inches of water. They said he drowned after being knocked unconscious. Mrs. Zelma Pruitt, 60, Fowler, was killed Saturday when her car was struck by a big truck on U.S. 52 near her home. Police said the truck driver, John Larson, 49, Shabbona, 111., tried to pass the woman’s car but struck it from the rear. The rremaining accidents also happened Saturday. Mildred Hicks, 61, and Earl Hicks, 38, both of Galveston, were killed when a truck occupied by three Mexican farm laborers collided with their car on a Cass County road near Walton. John David Krosky, 6, Hobart, was killed when a cement truck backed up and struck him on his bicycle in front of his home. James Barry, 27, the driver, said he failed to see the boy in time. Mateo Herrera, a Mexican farm worker, and Mrs. Esther Eady, 41, Keysville, Fla., were killed in a head-on collision of the cars in which they were riding on U.S. 31 north of Peru. Mrs. Eady’s husband, Herbert, died early Monday of injuries. He was one of the drivers. Sue Pierce, 18, New Castle, died of injuries suffered in a truckcar crash on U.S. 52 northwest of Fowler. Police said she was in a car driven by her fiancee, Indiana University basketball player Ray Pavy, when it went out of control and hit the truck. Pavy was paralyzed from injuries.
