Amelia's Mother Is Hurt In Accident
BAKERSFIELD, Cal., April 14--(UP)--Mrs. Amy Earhart, 60, mother of Amelia Earhart, was in Mercy Hospital today suffering from a broken leg and internal injuries that she received in an automobile accident in which Mrs. Genigna Green, 60, was killed.
Mrs. Green, resident of Honolulu, sponsored the Amelia Earhart memorial plaque that was placed on Diamond Head near Honolulu and and the Earhart light installed at Howard island. She came to the mainland searching for backing to renew the hunt for Miss Earhart, who was lost on an airplane flight across the southern Pacific last July.
