Mother and Son Killed In Auto Crash Near Hutchinson Sunday

MR. AND MRS. ADOLPH REIMER WERE RETURNING HOME FROM VISIT IN BUHLER

Another auto tragedy early last Sunday night took the life of Mrs. Adolph Reimer and her 12 year old son Melvin in a head-on crash on 50s near Hutchinson. Mr. Reimer also was critically injured but is expected to recover.

Four persons in the other car were less seriously injured.

Mr. and Mrs. Reimer and son were returning to their home in Hutchinson from Buhler, where they had spent the afternoon with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Adrian. Driving in a heavy snow, it is thought that their car drove off the shoulder of the pavement and then swung into the path of a car coming from the opposite direction.

Mr. Reimer suffered a broken leg, a broken right arm and fractured ribs. He is well knwn here in Newton, having been formely [sic] associated with theMidland Mutual Insurance company.
