March 30. Two trucks were damaged considerably this afternoon shortly before 4 p. m. at the Intersection of Water and Jackson streets, when Jacob Hershey, of Menges Mills, drove out on Jack son street into the path of a CCC truck driven by Clifford Burkholder, stationed at the Glen Rock camp, The CCC truck, which was heading eastward toward Mam street, was occupied by four other youths from the Glen Rock camp, who' escaped injury. Hershey was driving alone at the time of the Impact He also escaped Injury.

According to Burk holder, the Herslwy driven truck fol lowed a heavy dump truck coming out on Jackson street, both of which failed to stop. He narrowly escaped hitting the heavier truck and then collided with Hershey's truck which was following close behind. The Intersection of these two streets Is right outside the borough limits on the Jackson township side. On Monday stop signs were placed at the Intersection regulating traffic coming north on Water street. Ac cording to residents living nearby, many motorists who have been accustomed to using this thoroughfare before the stop signs were placed there, have not been observing the stop warning.

This Is due, probably, to neglect through the psychological force of habit. An Investigation was conducted by Donald Harris, of the Pennsylvania State Motor police. Both cars were towed to the garage or f.
