Roulette Girl, 17, Killed Instantly In Auto Crash
23-Year-Old Ex-Soldier Driver Suffered Serious Head Injury;
Hospitalized in Olean General;
Condition "Not So Good"
Funeral services were held yesterday afternoon for 17-year-old Miss Pauline L. Roberts, of Roulette, victim of an auto accident late Saturday night near Olean, N. Y.
A passenger in a car driven by Clair V. Boyer, 22, also of Roulette, Miss Roberts died almost instantly after the car skidded into a tree.
The driver is in Olean General Hospital with a serious head injury. His mother said yesterday afternoon that his condition was "not good."
Accident Near Olean Limit
The accident occurred one-half mile east of the Olean city limit on Route 17. New York State police said the car, westbound, skidded on a curve near King's greenhouse. The auto was nearly torn in two when it wrapped itself around the tree.
Brought here this week by Haskins Motors, the smashed auto was seen by many. "How anybody ever survived that one I'll never know" was one comment that seemed to sum up the general thinking of persons who saw the car. Ed.j
The driver and Miss Roberts were taken to the hospital in Westons Mills Volunteer Fire Department's ambulance. Miss Roberts was dead upon arrival at the hospital at 10:30 o'clook.. Mr. Boyer was unconscious.
Dr. William E. MacDuffie, Cattaraugus County (N. Y.) coroner, who investigated the accident with Corp. J. C. Murphy, attached to the Allegany barracks of the New York State police, issued a certificate of accidental death for Miss Roberts. Death was attributed to a broken neck and crushed chest.
Mr. Boyer, a former serviceman with four years in the U.S. Air Force, and the girl were en route to a dance at Olean, it was learned. They had left from Roulette earlier in the evening.
The 1954 model car belonged to the driver's brother, David, a member of the USAF and stationed at Sampson, N. Y., according to another brother, Harold, who came here from his home in New Albany, Ind., after learning of the accident.
Discharged from service on March 25, 1955, Mr. Boyer worked in a Buffalo, N. Y. automobile plant until the holidays, his brother, Harold, said. He had not worked since Christmas.
Miss Roberts, a junior in Port Allegany Joint School, was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roland Roberts. She was born at Coudersport, R. D. (Hebron Center) on June 29, 1938. She was a member of the Methodist Church.

five brothers, - Darwin W. Roberts,
- Marvin Roberts,
- William Roberts and,
- Joseph Roberts, all at home;
- Lawrence Roberts, Roulette, and
