Adell Bury, 1611½ Turner St., Believed Most Seriously Injured, Had Been Slightly Hurt in Mishap in Sister's Car Thursday
In an automobile collision near Alburtis early New Year's morning, Adell Bury, 1611 Turner St., was seriously injured while an occupant of a car driven by David Beary, of Lebanon, son of Mr. and Mrs. Karl Beary and only grandson of General Frank D. Beary, and Charles Schaeffer, 26 of Alburtis, driver of the second car involved in the crash, sustained injuries about the head including a possible fracture of the frontal bone, and many cuts and bruises. The accident occurred when David Beary, driver of his father's new sedan, was backing out of a garage preparatory to a trip to make a phone call.
With him in the car were Helen Hurdell, granddaughter of Mrs. A. G. Dewalt, 34 S. 16th; Miss Bury and Midshipman William A. Stiles, of Kansas City. Just as the car neared the highway and the rear wheels alone were on the main road, the engine stalled. At that instant a light roadster, driven by Schaeffer dashed along the road and struck the rear of the stalled car, hurling it a distance of fully fifty feet. Both cars were completely wrecked by the terrific impact.
Miss Bury, who occupied the right side of the rear seat, received the lull force of the collision which stove in the right side of the Beary car. She was wedged in the wreckage and was removed only with the greatest difficulty. Schaeffer was pinned in his telescoped car. David Beary, driver of the sedan, had a deep cut in the neck which bled profusely and other cuts about the head. Miss Hurdell escaped injury but Midshipman Stiles received painful bruises.
Mary Frances Hurdell, older sister of Helen, who was about to enter the car with the four young people, escaped the crash and immediately directed the situation. Reaching a distant telephone she summoned the ambulance of the Allentown hospital, the State Police and the families of the young people concerned. The ambulance removed Miss Bury to the hospital where it was found that she had suffered fractures of pelvic bones on both right and left sides and bruises to her spine which had been hurt when she was a passenger In a car that was in collision at 6th and Turner Sts. on Thursday evening. At that time her sister, Myra Bury also was injured. Miss Bury is a Sophomore at Cedar Crest college.
All the young people had been in attendance at a New Year's party in a near-by farmhouse and in order to inform their families that their return would be delayed beyond the hour set for their return home, they were taking the car out of the garage to seek a phone when the accident occurred. Schaeffer was taken to a nearby physician and then was removed to the Allentown hospital for examination and X-ray pictures. Officers of the State Highway Patrol investigated the accident yesterday and after taking the testimony of Midshipman Stiles permitted his return today to Annapolis for the resumption of his work in the U. S. Naval Academy. During his stay in this city since the beginning of the Christmas vacation he has been a guest of his fellow-classman Midshipman W. J. Ruhe.
