Employed as a nurses' aid at Doctors' Hospital, she was returning home late at night when she apparently dozed at the wheel. The car left the road and crashed into a tree. She underwent emergency surgery, but died the following day.

Milverton, Ont. — A car-truck crash near here the evening of June 10 claimed the life of seven-year-old Pauline Nafziger. Her father Melvin Nafziger, driver of the car, suffered head injuries and a sister, Rochelle, has a broken arm.
