Driver Escapes
After Injuring
Alderson Man
Examination Shows
John Kuchta Has
No Broken Bones
No trace has been found of the
hit-and-run driver who struck John
Kuchta, 60, father of Michael Kuch-
ta, Dallas manager of the Common-
wealth Telephone Company, about
7 o'clock Saturday night shortly
after he had left his home at Alder-
soh.
Mr. Kuchta suffered lacerations of
the face and scalp and was treated
by Dr. F. Budd Schooley of Dallas
who suggested his removal to Nes-
bitt Memorial Hospital for x-ray ex-
amination. It was at first feared
that he might have a broken pelvis
or internal injuries, but the x-ray
pictures revealed no fractures.
Mr. Kuchta was found a few min-
utes after the accident by two boys

who saw him attempting to gain
his feet. Chief Ira Stevenson was
summoned and started an immedi-
ate investigation. The Chief said
yesterday that the driver must have
known that he struck a person, for
tracks indicated that the car left
the highway and plunged into a
muddy embankment and continued
toward Kunkle. At the time of the
accident Mr. Kuchta was walking
on the right side of the road with
a flashlight in his hand. The car
which struck him was far on the
wrong side of the road, leading po-
lice to the conclusion that the driver
might have been under the influence
of liquor.
Though badly shaken and dazed,
Mr. Kuchta was of the opinion that
the car was a black sedan. He said!
that it was traveling at a good
clip and that although he leaped
to the ditch along the highway, he
was unable to escape being hit.
