Deceased Planned To
Follow Career of
Journalism
C. F. “C harley” Coffman, who,
with his brother, once operated
the Brookings Fuel Co., died last
Friday evening from injuries sus­
tained when his e a r hit a S. P.
train near C entral Point.
While details are m eager, it
is reported th at an eye w itness
said th a t Coffman had stopped
a t the crossing, and had ap p ar-
netly had not disengaged his
clutch, m erely held his foot on
the pedal. His foot evidently had
slipped for the c a r suddenly w ent
forw ard into the train.
The c a r w as carried considera­
ble distance from the scene be­
fore it broke loose.
Coffman sustained broken bones
in both arm s, a leg and several
broken bones about his body. His
forehead was cut alm ost into the
brain.
Despite these injuries he lived
for th ree days or more. H*» had
taken his ste p -fa th er to work,
and was retu rn in g home w hen
the accdent occurred.
W’as Planning “P aper” Career
Following sale of his equity in
the fuel business last August to
his brother, C harley had planned
to e n te r college under the GI
bill and study journalism . His
first plans w ere to a tte n d U niver­
sity of C alifornia. His papers had
been approved too late for fall
registration. Not long ago follow­
ing his b ro th er’s d e p a rtu re to
New O rleans, C harley retu rn ed
to this a re a to look a fte r th e ir
interests n orth of town. He told
the P ilot only two w eeks ago
th a t he had planned to e n te r
