      Blazing Car Takes 2 Lives

      A couple believed to be man and wife was killed in a flaming two-car accident on the Sunset Highway near 75th Avenue Friday night. Four other people injured in the crash were reported in good or fair condition in Portland hospitals Saturday morning.

      The dead were identified by Dr. James H. Stewart, Washington County Medical examiner, as Virgil Bruce Eddings, 23, and Margaret Rose Eddings, 17, of Cornelius.

      The dead couple was riding in the front seat of a sedan with a man driving, when it and another sedan collided in the west-bound lane of the divided highway. Early police reports indicated that one of the two cars was either making a turn or going the wrong way.

      The death car burst into flames after the impact and the driver and front-seat passenger were burned severely, officers said.
