Jay .Stockton Collided With Telephone Pole Sunday.
While driving with his family Sunday evening in his Ford auto Jay Stockton in making the turn at Susan and Cullen streets ran straight into a telephone pole in front of Bruce White’s property. The car struck the post with considerable force and stuck so fast that it was removed with difficulty and the crank had been driven so far back that the machine could not be started for some time and then by throwing it in high gear and several pushing it until it started up. It was taken to a garage for repairs. Mr. Stockton was slightly injured by striking his chest against the steering gear. No other members of the family were injured.
