KILLED IN CRASH
Willard Huntley, 26, of Landrum

three other persons—all residents
of the city of Spartanburg—were
critically injured early Saturday
night in a collision of two automo
biles on the Chesnee-Mill Spring
highway near the Rutherford-
Polk County, N. C., line.
At the Spartanburg General

were carried following the crash,
the injured were listed as: Grady

Kesterson, about 45, same address;
and Alice Johnson, age unknown,
tentatively listed as being of Lo
gan street, Spartanburg.
Hospital attaches said the con
dition of all surviving injured was
“very critical.”
Mr. Huntley, who died about
9:30 o’clock Saturday night—ap
proximately three hours following
the accident—was reported as an
employee of a Tryon, N. C., hos

almost head-on in a cloud cf dust
on the road, recently plowed up
preparatory to improvements.
