accident occurred, escaped with a few
minor bruises.
   Lenney was taken to the City hospital
where an examination disclosed a fractured
leg and several cuts about he body. At-
tending physicians report his condition
as not serious.
   The accident occured while Lenny
and Joseph were enroute to Lima from
