hit the Dewitt car, and the impact threw him and Miss Hughes from the
motorcycle, police said.
Adair suffered a broken right leg and
arm. Miss Hughes received severe head
injuries and a broken right arm. Police
were not sure if the two were wearing helmets.
Wisconsin does not have a helmet law, police said. Persons in the Dewitt car were not injured.
Adair and Miss Hughes were taken to the
Elkhorn Hospital by Elkhorn Ambulance Service.
Miss Hughes was later transferred to another hospital.
Miss Hughes was the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Donald G. Hughes of Route 4, Box 122, Elkhorn, Wisc., former Edinburgh
residents.
Funeral services conducted at 2 p.m.
Tuesday at Derskens Funeral Home in Elkhorn with

crash
GRANDVIEW -- Four Perry County girls,
two of them sisters and all of them Cannelton and

Jeanette Simpson,21 of 1437 13th St., Tell City; Cheryl Young, 16, of 35
Pleasant Valley and Kim Thorn, 16, of 656 E. Seventh, both of Cannelton.
It took state police several hours to
determine the cause of the accident that took place at 11:50 p.m. Troopers said the vehicle driven by Miss
Young was enroute west and apparently crossed the
center line in front of the Simpson vehicle.
Both cars were 1972 Ford Torinos. The autos
burst into flames upon impact, state police said. Three of the bodies were burned
extensively. A fourth was thrown from
the wreckage and burned slightly.
All died from internal injuries,
according to police.
Relatives of the Simpson girls said the
sisters had been shopping in Evansville.
The girls had told their mother that they may be late returning to Tell
City if a movie was playing. They had
apparently stayed late for the meeting.
Janice was the valedictorian of her
graduating class of 1972. She was also a
graduate from Indiana State University, Terre Haute and had taken post-graduate
classes in vocal training at the University of Louisville. She was recently named as the religious
instruction coordinator at St. Paul's Catholic Church.
Jeanette graduated with honors from
Tell City High School. She was a senior
at ISU, Terre Haute and would have graduated in May.
Funeral arrangements were pending Saturday morning at Zoercher-Gillick Funeral Home for the Simpson girls.
They were the daughters of Mrs. Frieda
(Rothwell) Simpson.
Their father, Ralph, died Jan. 30.
