Recovering from minor injuries for which they were treated at San Antonio Hospital and later released are Rev. Leslie Kunze, 39, pastor of the First Methodist Church, Delphos, and his wife, Edith, 38. According to Deputy Sheriff Mabrey, who investigated the accident, Crowe attempted to pass a string of several cars and ran head-on into the westbound car driven by Justice, who was on his way back to Detroit after a honeymoon trip and visit with his wife's parents in Larue. After the head-on collision, Crowe's car skidded into the line of eastbound traffic and collided with Rev. Kunze's car. Crowe suffered a fractured skull and internal injuries in the collision and died about four hours later in San Antonio Hospital. His passenger, Bailey, also suffered a fractured skull and internal injuries. He died at 2:15 a.m. today in San Antonio.
