Teresa Marie Gesney. 4. daugh-
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Dennis Gos-
ne~;, Lilliwaup, was killed Sunday
aftcrnoon when she was struck by
a car as she darted across High-
way 101 north of Lilliwaup.
Driver of the car was Conrad
Bernhardt, 34, Olympia, who told
officers that the child darted onto
the Highway in front of his car
and that he was unable to stop.
Funeral services were held at
Mills and Mills Funeral Home
in Olympia Tuesday with burial
in Calvary Cemetery, Olympia.
THE ACCIDENT occurred
about 2:40 p.m. north of Lilliwau-n,
Teresa and another girl were
playing on tile west side of the
highway when she darted in front
of the southbound Bernhardt re=
~.icle.
She was brought to Shelton Gen-
eral Hospital by Hughes Ambu-
lance and was wonounced dead on
.~rrival at the hospital.
Teresa was the only child of thc
Gosneys who had lived at Lilli-
waup since the first of tile year.
Her father is employed in Sequim.
"i;he wanted to go home to get
her doll," neighbors said, in tell-
ir, g of the deulh of the little girl.
She had been playing in the
area on the west side of the high-
way with Julia, ,12, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. William McKasson,
in whose home apartment the
Gosneys live. Julia, it is reported,
had told her little companion to
wait and she would take her
across the highway to get her doll.
Teresa didn't wait.
"I was working out-of-doors,"
said Mrs. McKasson. "It was just
before 3 p nl. when I went inside
to put potal.ocs in with my TOm':t.
AS I was putting the lid on I heard
this awful screeching of brakes.
I tore out and saw Teresa lying
beside the road . . . I got her
mother. Bill called the ambulance,
whicIl made good time getting
there.
The drtver of the car back of
the one that struck Teze~t was
helpful in the confusion . . . told
us to get some blankets to put
over her."

Either type of building would
relieve the over.,crowded condi-
tion, but construction of a high
school buikling would entitle the
district to qualify for financial

In effect, the district could con-
struct a superior facility for a
high school program, using the
same anlount of local fnnds re-
for construction of a high school
classroom building, was the result
of advice from the State Superin-
