Considerable excitement was caused on Mt. Auburn street last night when a Ford Coupe, belonging to Mr. Edward Huse, an assistant caretaker of the University buildings ran wild without a driver from the Harvard Square Garage to Holyoke Place where its course was suddenly checked by an electric light pole. The accident was cause by a faulty stater-plug which released itself when the car was being pushed with the brakes off and started the car. It had reached a speed of 15 miles and was skimming along beside the curb before it crashed into the pole, smashing the fenders and tearing off the wheels and turning completely over.
