Three Die In British Columbia Accidents

ALDERGROVE COUPLE IN HEAD-ON CRASH, YOUTH HIT BY MILK TRUCK

Aldergove, B. C. — Traffic accidents in this area claimed the lives of a Mennonite couple and a nine-year-old lad within recent weeks.

J. Klassen and wife Katherine of Aldergrove were fatally injured when their car was involved in a head-on collision 10 miles southeast of New Westminster, at the intersection of the Coast Meridian Road and the Trans-Canada Highway.

Gerald Klassen, nine-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Klassen of Aldergrove, was struck by a milk truck in Lynden, Wash. He died four hours after being admitted to the Langley, B. C. hospital. Funeral services were conducted at the East Aldergrove M. B. Church.
