Title A name given to the resource Robert Kerwin Accident, 1975, Rossville, Kansas Subject The topic of the resource Transportation accidents Description An account of the resource Early Morning Accident Near Rossville Results in Injuries Robert Kerwin, 18, St. Marys, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clinton Kerwin, was admitted to St. Francis Hospital early Wednesday morning following a three-vehicle smashup near Rossville. His left arm had to be amputated shortly after he was admitted. Kerwin was also treated for lacerations to his right arm and forearm. Lynn Weill, 31, Edna, was also admitted. He received treatment for contusions to his scalp, chest and shoulder. The accident occurred about 12:15 a.m. Wednesday, August 20, 1975, just east of Rossville on U.S.-24 Highway. A number of hogs being trucked to market were also killed. The highway patrol said a Jeep-like vehicle driven by Kerwin and headed west veered left of the center line of the highway and sideswiped a truck loaded with hogs headed east and on the highway. The patron said Weill apparently lost control of the truck, crossed over the center line and sideswiped a westbound pickup driven by Gerry Dolezilek, 17, Rossville. Dolezilek was not injured. Authorities said most of the hogs in the truck were killed in the accident. Those that survived were rounded up later in the morning. [Caption: Clean-up of the wreck which occurred at 12:15 a.m. Wednesday, August 20, just east of Rossville on U.S.-24 Hwy continued until after 9:00 a.m. when the truck which was carrying hogs was pulled from the ditch.] Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource St. Marys Star, St. Marys, Kansas Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Rossville Community Library, Rossville, Kansas used with permission Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource August 1975 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource All rights reserved Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource newspaper Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context RCL0423 http://recollectionsks.org/files/original/ae122cb4aabf9e9d7b1ff57a3cdd5cbc.jpeg 4154f38b63213bebef8f23cabebeaeb2 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Emil Kovar in Car-Train Accident, 1985, Rossville, Kansas Subject The topic of the resource Accidents Description An account of the resource [Caption: Emil Kovar escaped serious injury after Union Pacific train hit his car last week. The car sustained major damage. Photo by Lisa Rosenow] Kovar Suffers Rib Injury in Car-Train Mishap Emil Kovar, 82, Rossville, escaped serious injury Tuesday, August 6, when a Union Pacific train crashed into his car while he was trying to get it off the tracks. Kovar suffered rib injuries, said a county official, and was treated at Stormont-Vail Regional Medical Center and released. Kovar was driving south across the railroad tracks, which run parallel and about 300 feet north of US-24, about 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, said Deputy John Barber of the Shawnee County Sherrif's Department. When Kovar saw the train approaching from the west, he stopped the car and tried to put the vehicle in reverse, Barber said. Instead, he shifted into park, leaving about four feet of the front of the car across the tracks. The one-engine train, which routinely shuttles empty cars between Topeka and Junction City, was pulling eight empty cars that day.
