This Day in History: 1942-07-15
A collision between cars driven by two local residents resulted in both damage and personal injury. James R. Glasgow, 24, of Valley Road Mahwah collided with a car driven by Gilbert Oddo, 42, of Ferguson Place in Ramsey at the corner of Carol and Spring Streets at 10:00 PM. Two passengers in the Oddo car were slightly injured and were treated by Dr. Vernon L. Hawes. Glasgow’s car had smashed glass on the left side and the wheels were knocked out of line when he jumped the sidewalk and smashed into the home of Ramsey Patrolman George Strant. The Oddo car also suffered broken glass and a smashed hood and mudguard. Both cars had to be towed from the scene. (Bristow)
