From the Zanesville Times Recorder, 28 Apr 1964:5 PERSONS INJURED IN TWO-CAR COLLISION ON
 JERSEY RIDGE ROAD
 Five persons were injured in a head-on two-automobile
 collision on Jersey Ridge road near the farm of Dr. Charles
 Murrey early Monday evening. Late last night two persons
 were reported injured in a two-automobile crash on Fifth
 street near the YMCA.
 Deputy sheriffs said cars driven by Leo J. Haren Jr., 38,
 of Route 3 and Stanley R. Merkle, 53, of Hopewell Route 1
 collided on a curve at the crest of a hill in Jersey Ridge road.
 All five were taken to Bethesda Hospital, most in a DeLong
 and Baker ambulance.
 Injured in the Haren car were the driver who was dismissed
 after treatment for a puncture wound on his left forearm, and a
 bump on his left leg; and his wife, Edna Haren, 28, who was
 admitted for treatment of cuts on her face, and pain in her left
 leg and right hand.
 In the Merkle auto, the driver suffered bruises on his chest
 and abdomen and was treated and dismissed; his daughter,
 Delores Merkle, 19, of Hopewell Route 1, was admitted for
 treatment of severe cuts on her scalp and forehead, and Roger
 Secrist, 19, of Hopewell Route 1 was admitted for treatment of
 a severe face cut.
 Both cars were towed from the scene.
