O STAFFORD reports the disaster that shook a lusty
yjr full-blooded girl who fell off a streetcar and suffered a
severe head injury. Until the accident, she had dated most of
the eligible blades in
town. She recovered in
due course, but alas, her
interest in men had van-
ished completely, and
mere mention of the
word “sex’* made her
shudder with distaste.
Clearly this was a case
where a streetcar maimed
desire.
