Emergency service at Washington was wiped out Saturday afternoon when the water tanker and ambulance collided on Route 211 at the entrance to the Amissville fire house and carnival grounds. According to Trooper S. W. Weatherboltz, Bruce Critzer, driving the tanker attempted to make a left turn when Edward Clark in the ambulance started to pass. The emergency units bad been summoned to Amissville to assist with a large field and brush fire. The ambulance with radio was directed to the fire and started to pass the tanker to lead it to the burning area. The tanker had no radio and had no outside rear vision mirror on that side so Critzer did not see Clark passing, as he steered the tanker into the Amissville fire house to receive directions.
