Prince in car crash
SANDRINGHAM, England (P)-Prince Charles, heir to the
British throne, escaped unhurt yesterday from a car crash near
the royal family's estate at Sandringham.
The 26-year-old prince was driving a jeep and trailer when
the trailer collided with a car, police said.
They said Prince Charles, five other men and one woman, all
returning from a game shooting expedition, were unhurt but the
driver of the car was slightly injured.
The prince, who has been driving for eight years, had two
other minor accidents, in 1972 and 1973.

donned his warm-up leggings.

about 30," he said.
Burns said before the race
that tactics are important but
added "you gotta be strong. You
gotta be strong enough to know
how to use em."
Joe Schaugg and Cappy, Wol-
verine, Sports Club members
from Detroit, helped officiate
the races. Cappy has been in-
volved with bicycle racing here'
and in France since 1928.

TO DISCUSS:

QUESTIONS? Call Barb Nutter, 763-3548

A phone call. A simple,
ten-cent phone call for a cab could
save your friend's life.
If your friend has been
drinking too much, he shouldn't
be driving.
The automobile crash is the.
number one cause of death of people
your age. And the ironic thing is

that the drunk drivers responsible
for killing young people are most
often other young people.
Take a minute. Spend a
dime. Call a cab. That's all. If you
can't do that, drive him yourself.
Or let him sleep on your couch.
We're not asking you to be
a doctor or a cop. Just a friend.
