Portland Man Dies in Crash Above Laytonville

An accident on the Redwood highway above Laytonville last night resulted in the death of one man and sent his companion to the Howard hospital at Willits.
Robert Allen Wilcox, 25, of Portland, OR, driver of the car, was killed and Roy Powers, a passenger, is in the hospital with a crushed chest and deep cuts on his face and limbs. The body of Wilcox is at the Anker Mortuary.
The accident happened 3 1/2 miles north of Laytonville on the Redwood highway which is within the Eureka headquarters of the CHP whose patrolman covered the accident. Particulars of the accident are meager. The coroner's office has been advised that the car driven by Wilcox hit a shoulder of the road then left the highway and collided with a tree. A post mortem was made Thursday night.
Powers is about 40 years of age, the son of William J powers of Redwood Valley and a ranch worker.8
