. . .

• A tragic highway accident at an intersection three miles west of Whitewater last Friday evening snuffed out the lives of four persons. The Joseph B. Temple family of Salina, including six children, were traveling east on K-196 in their Volkswagen when a car driven by Mrs. Ruby Thompson, 41, of Valley Center pulled into their path. In the resulting crash Mrs. Thompson and a passenger, Barbara Potter, 10, were instantly killed as was 11-year-old Debra Temple. The Temples' infant daughter died at Bethel Hospital on Saturday morning.
