State Police, who witnessed the worst accident of the period, said Colman Bero, 25, and his wife, Anne, 22, of South Uniontown, driving a jaguar roadster, collided with another car while trying to pass a sedan driven by Robert Mihalk, 24, of Uniontown, R. D. 3. The sports car swerved out of control after hitting that of George Shaw, 20, of Farmington. The Jaguar was then struck broadside by another sedan coming from the opposite direction with Eugene Savage, 17, of Friendsville, Md., at the wheel. Another sedan, operated by Nettie Williams, 38, of Farmington, was struck by the Jaguar as she pulled around it and the Savage vehicle. Her car spun about and crashed into an embankment on the other side of the road and Mihalik headed his auto into the embankment purposely to avoid hitting the wreckage. Mr. and Mrs. Bero were dead upon arrival at Uniontown Hospital as was Savage. Bero died instantly of crushed chest and skull fracture; his wife suffered a compound fracture of the skull and Savage had a broken neck and skull fracture. The tragedy occurred between Mr. Summit and Hopwood at 1:30 o’ clock Sunday morning. Frances Fike, 18, of Bruceton W. Val, an occupant in the Savage car, was seriously injured, She was admitted to the hospital with a compound fracture of the right leg, fractured left wrist, lacerations of the lower lip, nose fracture and head injury. A passenger in the Mihalik vehicle, Dorothy Sabatula, 23, of Bitner, was treated for Shock. John Reckus, 25, 25, of Uniontown, owner of the Jaguar, was treated for hysteria and shock. He was riding in the Mihalik auto, Nettie Williams was treated at the scene for head contusions and shoulder injury. Damage including $4,000 for the Jaguar which was a total loss, amounted to nearly 6,000. Bero is survived by an eight-moth-old son, James; his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Colman Bero, of South Uniontown, and a brother, with the Air Force in New Mexico. His wife leaves her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Nick Cindric of Phillips; six brothers, John R. of Lima, Ohio, Joseph of Uniontown, and one sister, Mary Louis Cindric of Uniontown.
