The car, a 1966 Chevelle, owned and operated by Duckworth, went out of control east of the Prentis Hatchery, knocked over a stop sign, hit a cement abutment, carreened over a railroad track which crosses the street, and landed on its top against a car registered to Gary Mozingo, art instructor in the Mount Ayr schools, who resides in the Thompson apartments northeast of the tracks. The youths were admitted to the Ringgold County Hospital for treatment of lacerations and contusions where they remained under observation until Sunday.
