Her attending physician said she sustained a severe gash on the back ot hei head, which may prove to be a skull frac ture, and several body bruises. She is unconscious and hasn't been disturbed, the doctor stat ed. No x-ray pictures have been taken because of her con dition, which was described by the physician as "critical, due to a combination of the stroke and head injury." The accident occurred about 10:30 this morning. Mrs. Hal ley had almost reached the foot of the long flight of stairs when she suffered the stroke and fell the remaining distance to the street, her physician ex plained.
