ROY scon HAD VERY CLOSE CALL
While Motorcycling From Jamestown, \. Rak., He Had Head-End Collision With Anto. Roy Scott arrived home several days ago from Jamestown, N. Dak. He came from Jefferson, lowa, on the train and brought a disabled Excelsior motorcycle with him. He was lucky to come home outside of a casket as you will agree when you read this account of an accident he had near Jefferson. He had left Jamestown, N. Dak., expecting to come by motorcycle all the way to Rensselaer. Everything went smoothly until he was about 5 miles this side of Jefferson, a small town about 60 miles north of Des Moines. Just as he turned a corner of the road, where tall corn obscured the view before turning, a 5-passenger automobile loomed up in front of him. He was going fairly fast and so was the auto. He might have missed the auto had he kept his cburse, but he thought the machine was turning in his direction and he turned sharply to the left and right in front of the auto. The driver of the touring car proved to be a banker named Roscoe Head, of Jefferson. He brought the machine to a sudden stop and expected to find a corpse beneath, but Roy proved not to be seriously injured, although one front wheel of the auto had passed across his hips. The motorcycle was also under the auto and was pulled out at the side, having been run over by both front wheels. It was considerably damaged by having the frame and handlebars bent. Mr. Head took Roy-and his motorcycle back to Jefferson,'and paid his way from there to Rensselaer, notwithstanding the fact that the collision was accidental and no especial blame could be attached to Mr. Head. Roy remained tolerably close at home for several days after his arrival here but was in town Thursday and feeling almost altogether recovered from the bruises he had sustained.
