A 15-year-old Falrlawn girl was killed yesterday morning and several other persons injured in a two-car collision in Buchanan County, VA. The girl, Charlene Marie Haynes, was killed instantly, state police said, when the car in which she was riding, went out of control on a rain-slick road and collided with another car. Her father, Charles R. Haynes driver of the car, lost control of the vehicle as he rounded a curve on route 80, near the intersection of 620 and collided with a 1965 four-door sedan driven by Mrs. Eura Miller, Tacoma, MD. Hospitalized were Charlene's twin brother, Charles, with left leg injuries, her mother, Mrs. Charles Roderick Haynes, severe contusion of the forehead and her father with multiple cuts on the chest and back. All persons injured in the wreck are reported in satisfactory condition at the Clinch Valley Clinic, Richlands. Trooper H.D. Church, said Charlene died of a cerebral concussion. The Haynes family was en-route to a family reunion being held at Breaks State Park, near the Virginia-Kentucky state line when the accident occurred.
