CYCLE RIDER MEETE DEATH IN CRASH
Ernest Hededus 23, 1818 Cimarron St. Los Angeles, died early Thurday 
morning Sept. 11 of injuries received when his motorcycle collided with an 
automobile six miles east of Mojave on Highway 466.
The California Highway Patrol said Hededus, an employee of the Muroc Army 
Air Base crashed his cycle into an automobile that was driven by Marvin Cross of 
Choteau, Okla.. Wilmer M. Trivett, a passenger on the motor cycle was seriously 
hurt and spent a day in the Mojave Hospital.
The two small daughters of Cross Gwendolyn 5, and Carolyn 3, received 
emergency treatment for injuries they suffered and were taken to a Los Angeles 
Hospital by the O'Donnell Funeral home ambulance.
Tripp suffered a broken hand in the accident which necessitated the removal of a 
heavy finger ring. Charles Spicer, Mojave jeweler offered his service, and removed 
the ring after a long and hard job.
