    Traffic accidents fatal to two

    A 15-year-old Rossville girl is one of two people to die on Kansas roads and highways in weekend traffic accidents, authorities said.

    Kelly P. Wehrli died about 11:35 p.m. Friday when the car in which she was riding left Hodges Road just east of Silver Lake and about eight miles west of Topeka, Shawnee County Sg. Bill Hudson said.

    Wehrli was a passenger in a car driven by Angela Wehner, 16, also of Rossville.

    Wehrli died of head injuries, but Wehner was not injured, Hudson said. Wehner told sheriff's officers that she was trying to avoid chuck-holes in the road when the car swerved off the road and flipped.
