Crash Kills Graduate Fellow

Leonard Brodsky, a Fellow at the Graduate School of Public Administration, died early Sunday morning in a one-car accident on the Massachusetts Turnpike.

Brodsky, 35, a research analyst in the New York Budget Bureau and one of the architects of the state's two per cent sales tax, was studying public finance at the graduate school under the Ford Foundation program.

He was traveling in the west-bound lane in Framingham when his care left the roadway and traveled parallel to it for about 100 yards before striking a bridge abutment. He was taken to the Framingham Union, Hospital and was pronounced dead of a fractured skull on arrival.
