Caption: "Abandoned auto on NE 10 early Thursday was just another reminder of Oklahoma's un-spring-like weather, which instead of crocuses, rosebuds and robins on the wing, has been snow, sleet and stiff winds.

An automobile driven by James Chesmore jr. hit a single unit Frisco Railway work train rushing from Tulsa (another Picture, Page 17.) to near Jones where another Frisco train had derailed earlier. Ten cars of a Memphis bound Frisco freight train jumped the track at 6:25 a.m. Thursday two miles northeast of Jones. No injuries were reported in the derailment. The work train was delayed by the crash at Warwick. The derailment halted use of the Oklahoma City-to-Tulsa portion of the track. The wreckage was expected to be cleared by late afternoon."
