Charlotte Observer
The condition of Dr. W.S. Rankin, injured in an automobile accident last Friday near Hamlet, is showing a gradual improvement, a long-distance telephone message to The Observer from the Hamlet hospital indicated last night.
There have been no complications and there is every likelihood that Dr. Rankin will be able to return to his home in Charlotte on Saturday or by the first of next week at the latest.
The wound on head is healing rapidly and his broken rib and breast bone are beginning to knit.
Dr. Rankin was injured when his automobile turned over near the Morrison Bridge over the Pee Dee River, hurling him from the car. His wife and 15-year-old son, who were in the car, were practically uninjured.
