STUDENT SERIOUSLY HURT. W. F. Fairey, of Orangeburg, Suffers ( Injury. Columbia, Feb. 5.?William Fletcher Fairey, Jr., of Orangeburg, a mem- 1 ber of the junior class at the Univer- 1 sity of South Carolina, was seriously c injured yesterday afternoon about c 1:45 o'clock when the gasoline tank c on the rear of an automobile belong- c ing to A. S. Herbert, a law student, i exploded. 2 Young Fairey, who was standing 1 about ten feet away, was hurled s some distance, striking the side of the ? building near which the car was f The head of the tank __ struck the young man in the chest, t causing a deep gash which penetrated 1 the left lung just above the heart, tl and his left arm was broken at the 1 wrist as he apparently raised it as ? the explosion occurred. He also sus- r - tained a cut on the head, another on 3 the leg and numerous smaller lacera- 1 tions. It seems that the gasoline tank, I which exploded, was a ''dummy" and s used only on occasions for carrying 1 a reserve supply and had not been i in use for a month, according to the c owner, Mr. Herbert, who was investigating it to see if it contained any 1 gasoline. Th? pet cock at the bottom had been opened and the cap was off the top. A match was struck to test e further the presence of the liquid, it t is said, when the explosion occurred, c Th? theory is that the gasoline had f vaporized in the tank and formed an ? explosive mixture with air. ?
