FOUR KILLED WHEN
TRUCKS COLLIDE
BRISBANE, November 7.-Two women and two servicemen were killed and seven other servicemen injured in what was almost a head-on collision between two service trucks at Scarborough at 11.30 o'clock last night. Those
killed were Muriel Dukes, 27, married, of Redcliffe, Joyce E. George, 27, married, of Redcliffe, LAC C. S. Tomlinson, RAAF, of Boonah and AC1 Robert Lucas Dolman, RAAF, 34, married, of Bendigo. The two women were employees
of the Moreton Bay Hotel, Redcliffe. Most of the casualties were in an army weapon carrier, which, it is stated, was conveying a number of people towards Redcliffe after a dance at Scarborough. It came into collision with a three
ton RAAF Wits wagon travelling in the opposite direction.
