Top British Racing Driver In German Grand Prix Tragedy

PETER COLLINS DIES AFTER CRASH

Car Turns Over The Duke's JUBILANT REACTION TO SUCCESSFUL ATLAS TEST Now America Has An

Operational ICBM-

In 11th Lap

Bonn, Aug. 3.

Peter Collins, one of the big three of

Britain's racing drivers, died in hospital | here tonight after crashing during the German Grand Prix at Neurburgriffg this afternoon.

His Ferrari ran off the truck in the 11th lap of the formula one race, and turned over two or three times. Collins, who was lying third in the World Champlon- ship and second in the formula one race, was rushed to hospital with head and arm injuries.

Mike

Hawthorn, who was behind Collins when the accident happened, said later: "He tipped the bank and the whole lot went over the hedge. I saw him flung out. I think he hit a tree." Hawthorn himself dropped out of the race in the 12th

lap when his clutch failed.

Collins' American wife, actress daughter of a top United Nations official, was in the pits during the race und did not see the accident. She went to Bonn to be

with her husband after being told of the crash. Peter Collins was, with Stirling Moss and Mike Hawthorn,

a member of the most famous driving team which

had ever produced.
