Raumnn said that their car traveled 700 feet out of control belore coming to rout in a riomnlishpd condition. The accident happened along a comparatively straight stretch of highway about a half-mile north of the Kinzua mill. The auto struck a roacisicie bank, nosedived through the air nhmii- 5( font, traveled broad side down the center of the road, then went lnio me uuen, linauy flipping over a 15-foot embank ment. Sheriff Bauman said that he does not know which man was driving, but thougnt it was Breeding. The accident was another In a series of many serious mishaps that have occurred in me same area during the past year. Extension Fund Donations Sought With tho ramnaiin iust Bet- tintr well under way, more than Kinnn hn hpn contributed to wards the needed $3400 to re store the county extension duo.- get to its original $1U5(, Mrs. Mnplihnm R:iWpr said Thursday. Cnn r hu ons to the tuna are solicited from the general pub lic, anu inose interested in ncip- ni' are asked to send cnecKs, payable to the "Emergency Ex tension Fund" to Ken net n Smouse, lone, treasurer. Response frnm Hip niiblie will helD ex pedite the work at a time when those involved with tne solici tation are busy with fair, rodeo, harvest and omor wont. It is hoped that most of the contributions will be in mini mum denominations of $25 or more in order to eliminate book keeping on smaller amounts. The money will be placed in escrow in the bank to be held until the funds allowed by the coun ty budget committee for the ex tension service are exhausted. When this time comes, it is honed that the county court will reimburse the extension service for the balance of the year from the county's emergency fund. But if this is not done, it will be necessary to use the con tributed money. Should the county use emergency funds, the donations win he returned 10 mo givers. The state extension service set a deadline of September 1 as the time when assurance would be needed that the $3100 will be provided in order tnat one extension agent of the staff of three may not be taken from ih pimntv Thus, it is imper ative that the solicitation be con cluded soon. The $3-100 was removed from the extension service budget at the county budget hearing. This action aroused a storm of pro test from many citizens but it could not be restored because the budget had been finalized at the hearing. urn iiiimi i.. juiiw ,iui jwipiijiiiiiniiiimwiiiiiiimTTmi n mi imnwni mw mm n 1 11 I """ i: iMfWm, CARRYING the banner of the East in the Shrine All-Star game in Pendleton Saturday night will be the stalwarts pictured above.
