When near the county farm the ma chine became unmanageable antl ran Into one. of the electric light poles of the California-Oregon Power com pany line. The Impact loosened the cross arm and allowed the wires to become crossed. One carried a 2200 volt current for the lights In Phoenix and Talent, and the other two car ried a voltage of 34,000. All were burned in two and dropped to the ground about the car. Fortunately no one was seriously hurt, althouh Coder had his arm burned by one of the wires when It fell. A move one way or another might have meant death to the occu pants of the car. The car was no; badly injured, ex cept the radiator.
