ambulance stewards administer first aid, firemen work to
free two badly injured sailors trapped in this car which
apparently skidded on the wet pavement and smashed into
steel viaduct girder (left) in San Francisco. Because the
front of the car was pushed against both men, rear doors
had to be sawed off and the front seat removed before they
could be freed. It took half an hour to get the two out.
