THREE LONG BEACH YOUTHS ESCAPE Three Long Beach youths miraculously escaped serious injuries 12 miles east of Lake Arrowhead, when the Ford Coune in which they were riding turned over in the worst grade of the Arrowhead Lake trail. The coupe driven by J. G. Pop, bank clerk, when coming down the steep grade and over a small knoll in the road, broke the rear axle. Instead of hugging the mountain side to slacken speed, young Poe swerved to the left and then made a nose dive into the hillside. The force of the blow turned the machine on its side. The road happens to be wide at this point and saved the car from crashing over the bank to the great depths below. A garage within a mile of the scene of the wreck is making repairs. Besides the broken axle the front wheels are smashed, radiator broken and considerable damage to the top. The occupants of the car besides Poe were L. H. Harris, both employed at the Guarantee Title Co., and E. S. Greenewald, who is with the Union State Bank. Poe's left arm was considerably bruised and Harris received several cuts on his face. The trio had passed the week-end at Lake Arrowhead and was enroute home.
