CAR GOES BACKWARD
INTO DITCH
Occupants of Rear Seat Thrown Out
But None of Passengers Ser
iously Injured.
Just after crossing the small bridge
in front of the Aclkins residence in
South Heppner in his automobile
Tuesday evening, Jim Hayes had some
trouble in some unaccountable man
ner with his gears and in the mixup
the car started back down the grade.
The hind wheels just barely missed
the bridge on one side and a post on
the other side and the machine drop
ped down over the 8-foot embank
ment. The front wheels of the car
remained on the bridge tilting the
car at about an 80-degree angle. Jim
held right on to the wheel. Mrs.
Hayes and one of her children, who
were in the back seat did not stop
when the machine lid. They kept
right on going. Nobody was serious
ly injured although it is a mystery
how they escaped with only a few
minor bruises. The car was not much
hurt either. The running board on
the right hand side was torn loose
from its supporters and bent and that
was about all that seemed to be wrong
with the machine. That the rear end
of the car is strongly constructed
was amply proven in this instance,
otherwise the heavy weight of the car
falling such a distance would surely
have made things fly in all directions.
A crowd of men removed the
car from its position on Wednesday.
They accomplished the feat by letting
the front wheels down into the ditch
and turning the car towards the west.
A rope was attached to the front
axle and when the engine was started
the men lugged on the rope until the
car was finally dragged into the road.
