Student Sent to Boston Hospital By Auto Crash

John J. Chapman '49, of Eliot House, sustained a fractured right collar bone, plus lacerations of the face at 1:15 o'clock last night when the car in which he and three companions were riding crashed head-on into a steel partition on the Massachusetts Avenue railroad bridge between St. Botolph's Street and Columbia Ave.

Chapman was held in the Boston City Hospital, where his condition was described as not serious.

Two other occupants of the wrecked vehicle, John Snow, of Westwood, and Robert Davidson, of 285 Warren Street, Brookline received minor injuries. Snow had a fractured chin, while Davidson suffered contusions and lacerations of the face.

The car, a light, convertible coupe, was travelling at what police described as considerable speed in a westerly direction along Massachusetts Avenue when the crash occured. Chapman, sitting in the right front seat was thrown through the windshield by the impact.
