blocks east of Lake Mirror. Officers Wayma Robson and Tom Daniel said the accident apparently was unavoidable and no charge was loged against James Huggins, of New Auburndale Road, whose old model car struck Miller.

He told officers he was on his way from Camp Blanding and had started across the street from a filling station to buy some medicine at the drugstore when he was hit by the car.
