Poole was knocked off, too, and a gas pump fell on him breaking five bones in his leg below the knee, ankle and foot. He was carried to the hospital for treat ment. It is learned that Poole is lame in the other leg from an acci dent. The skidding car was occupi ed by Raymond Griffin of Greens boro and two young women, neither of whom was hurt, and the car was only slightly damaged. I In addition to knocking off a gas pump and oil tanks, an electric con nection was broken and set the gas on fire. For a few minutes there ' was quite a blaze from burning gas and oil. The firemen were called out and soon put the fire out. j The concrete approach to the ser I vice station was covered with fine sleet that was falling at the time, and to this is attributed the cause for the car skidding.
