MISS FULLER IN AUTO ACCIDENT CHRISTMAS EVE
IN DES MOINES HOSPITAL WITH SERIOUS LEG INJURIES AS RESULT OF HIGHWAY ACCIDENT
WELFARE WORKER HERE ACCIDENT OCCURS WHILE ON WAY HOME FOR CHRISTMAS
Miss Elizabeth FULLER, case worker in the Plymouth county welfare office,
suffered a cracked kneecap and a crushed ankle in an automobile accident
near Corning, Iowa, last Thursday night, while enroute to her home at Mount
Ayr, Iowa. Miss FULLER was riding in her own car and Welfare Worker Ben
DANCHIK and Mrs. DANCHIK were accompanying as far as Creston, Iowa, where
they formerly lived. Mr. DANCHIK was driving and a short distance from
Corning they crashed into a parked truck. Henry WALTERS, who was with the
truck, was badly injured and was taken to his home in Adams county.
Miss FULLER was taken to a Des Moines hospital by her father-in-law, Judge
Homer A. FULLER, of Mount Ayre and Peter JANSS, her brother-in-law, who
lives in Des Moines. She will undoubtedly have to spend several weeks in
the hospital. Mr. and Mrs. DANCHIK were badly shaken up and bruised but not
seriously injured.
Miss FULLER, who graduated from the University of Iowa in 1935, has been as
assistant in the welfare office here since last summer doing case work.
