Summer Plans End In Tragedy LAPORTE UPI — It was the first day of summer. The sun was shining and the temperature | hovered around 80 degrees. It was a perfect day to get some work done on a summer cottage I and prepare for the lazy days ; ahead. That may have been what Joseph Flitter had in mind when he called his home from the family's small cottage Monday and asked his son, Ronald, 17, to meet him at the building. “The cottage is located along a county road which is barely 15 feet wide from bank to bank,” said LaPorte County Deputy Sheriff Harold Rainier. | “And there are trees growing along both sides of the road. It’s a real nice place to be on a summer day.” That may have been what Ronald was thinking as he jumped into the family stationwagon and headed for the cottage and the meeting with his | father. But that meeting never took | place at the cottage. For some undetermined rea- ' son, Joseph Flitter decided not to wait at the building for the youth and headed back down the county road toward town in a flatbed truck. The father and son met about ' 1,500 feet down that county road from the Flitter cottage i when the station-wagon and I truck collided head-on. ‘‘It happened at a real bad place.” Rainier said. ‘‘There's a little knoll in the road there and the boy just couldn’t see over it and I doubt if his father could, either.” Police said the youth's car skidded 43 feet before it rammed into the truck. Ronald jumped from the station-wagon as it burst into flames and ran to the truck. He was too late. His 42-year-old father already was dead in the front seat of a crushed chest and internal injuries. Ronald apparently did not realize this, however, as he pulled his father from the wreckage and dragged him j about 50 feet from the truck. He then ran half a mile to the nearest farm house for help. Police and an ambulance were called as the youth ran back to the scene to lend whatever assistance he could to his father. Hoosiers Testify WASHINGTON UPI — Five Hoosier officials today were scheduled to testify before Sen.
