The victims were Miss Gertrude Spring, daughter wealthy Bristol textile mill official, and William Bagley, 23, youthful insurance company employee, who for a year has been Miss Spring's next door neighbor. The accident was the second to cause death at the curve within a few weeks. Recently a Trenton man was killed and another injured.

Grundy cotton mill, at Bristol, died a short time later in St. Francis Hospital, Trenton. Her skull was fractured and both her legs were broken. Tragedy Ends Outing The speed of the car as it hurtled into virtually accordioned it. Bagley trees found behind the wheel.

Death of the two, police learned, climaxed a day's outing. They had visited the Devon Horse Show Wednesday and had planned attend a dance in this city Wednesday night. They had dined, it was learned, in the of friends in Bala. They apparently were on their way home when the accident occurred. Miss Spring was active in the younger social set of Bristol and a member of St.

(Corpoight, 1935) DEVON HORSE SHOW CROWNS CHAMPIONS 15,000 See Parade of Winners at Close of Colorful Exhibition With a parade of ribbon -winning horses and the awarding of trophies and championships, the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair of 1935 came to a colorful close late yesterday afternoon.

The holiday throng of more than 15,000 which jammed the spacious showgrounds at Devon was 1 treated to a splendid exhibition of famed horses and of horsemanship which did full justice to the mounts. The winners of and red ribbons, handsome horses from the leading stables of this country and Canada, were led into the ring at 1.45 P. M. and received an ovation from the horse-loving spectators. In recognition of the holiday, the National Anthem was sung.

A short time later Edward F. Beale, president of the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair, Inc, made a brief address expressing his regret that the show, which opened last Friday, was drawing to a close. Mrs. Horace Hare, executive chairman of the Country Fair Committee, and Isaac H. Clothier, chairman of the Horse Show Committee, spoke.

Crowd Shows Appreciation The crowd, which was comparatively undemonstrative most of the week, cheered and applauded on many occasions yesterday. Kingvulture, the great chestnut gelding of the Dilwyne Farm, Montchanin, owned by R. R. M. Carpenter, was cheered warmly when he added to his long list of triumphs by capturing the final two events of the show program.

For the third consecutive year, Kingvulture won the $1000 hunter stake class and the Charles T. Fisher Challenge Trophy, an antique solid silver tureen, presented by Charles T. Fisher, became the permanent possession of his owner. Cuchulain, owned by R. Y.

Eaton, of Toronto, took second in this event, which was run over an outside course with jumps, and third place went to Iron Man, an entry of the Sifton Stable, Toronto. Champion Hunter In the final event, Kingvulture was judged the champion hunter of the show. It was the third consecutive year that he captured this honor and the Edward F. Beale Challenge Trophy, an antique coffee urn, also was awarded permanently to his owner. In this event the horses were judged on the basis of performance during the show.

The Sifton Stable's Iron Man was awarded the reserve ribbon. A leg on the Nancy Pansy Memorial Trophy for ladies' was captured by Mrs. Ellsworth Augustus' Sand Den, a chestnut gelding, with Mrs. John Hay Whitney's Bon Diable taking second. Three horses from the Sifton Stable won first leg on the Dilwyne Farm Challenge Cup for hunt teams in a colorful event in which riders were in full hunting attire.

Miss Dodge Wins Cup The Devon Victory Challenge Cup was presented to Miss Frances M. Dodge, of Rochester, whose entries won the greatest number of points in the show. The trophy which must be won three times before it becomes the permanent possession of the exhibitor, is a beautiful old English silver coffee urn. Mr. Beale paid a warm tribute to the work of Isaac H.

Clothier, in the course of his remarks and presented to Mr. Clothier a handsome silver cup bearing the inscription: Isaac H. Clothier, as a token of my affectionate regard and in appreciation of his untiring work for the Devon Horse Show and the Country Fair. Edward F. Beale." Mr.

Clothier said in his address: "In company with the conceptor of this institution, Mr. Wanamaker, and by the authority of the board of directors, we desire to express our gratitude to all Devon exhibitors, stable managers and friends for whatever success this 1935 classic has attained. 550 Horses Appeared "When it is considered that we have had here during the week over 550 horses representing hundreds of thousands of dollars, with owners coming from 17 States of the Union, including Californians and Torontonians and Winnipegeans from the lands of Canada, little wonder it is that we should acknowledge our pride and the glory that has come to Devon through every man, woman and child who has taken part here either as worker, exhibitor or spectator. "And with all spirit of the hearts which have throbbed over these grounds, we must admit our admiration for the women of the Main Line who have given class, color and culture to the unpartable part- A BIRTADAY!
