AGNES BUCKMASTER
Manitowoc Woman Killed; Mrs. Cyril Aleff Injured
Green Bay
– A Sheboygan woman was critically injured and a Manitowoc woman killed at 9:30 pm Tuesday in a car-truck collision at the intersection of N. Quincy and Day streets, next to the big Northern Paper Co.
The Sheboygan woman was identified as Miss Rose Aleff, 51, of 2633 N. 10th Street, whose husband, Cyril Aleff is a steward aboard the Reiss Steamship Co. freighter, John A. Cling.
The Manitowoc woman was Mrs. Agnes Buckmaster, 56, of 2205 Clarks St., whose husband, William is chief engineer on the same coal ship. According to police, the women had accompanied their husbands to Green Bay where their ship was loading coal at the Northern Paper Company. The men apparently had left their wives only a few minutes before the accident, police said.
The 1958 Ford had just left the Northern Paper Co. property with Mrs. Buckmaster driving when it shot through an arterial about 50 miles an hour, police said. The car crashed into and under a semi-trailer truck owned by the Green Bay Paper Co. and driven by Walter Bickel, 37, of Green Bay. Bickel, who was not injured, said the truck, carrying 23,000 pounds of paper pulp dragged the car more than 100 feet as it skidded to a stop. Three wreckers were required to pull the car from the truck. Mrs. Buckmaster was dead on arrival at ST. Vincent Hospital. Her death was Brown County’s 28 traffic fatality this year.
Mrs. Aleff, reported in critical condition at St. Vincent’s Hospital, suffered a compound fracture of her left knee, fractured right shoulder, back injury, severe hand, knee, face and mouth lacerations and the amputation of her left thumb.
