No one was badly injured. al- though Bartlett suffered a cut to his left eye that needed medical attention- A woman passenger was shaken up considerably and a man received a cut on the chin. The street at this turn is very icy at present and has been the cause of several near accidents, when driv- ers have momentarily lost control of their vehicles on the glassy street.
