Gossip Friday: Slightly Hurt
From March 1945:
Clark Gable, slightly hurt in a traffic accident, required hospital treatment of a laceration on the right leg and chest injuries, his studio reported.
The studio said the movie actor drove his automobile over a curb and into a tree to avoid striking another machine going in the wrong direction. Gable was jammed against the steering wheel.
He was resting easily today.

Interesting that the studio reported these events and not the press or the police. The embellishments made by the big five for publicity purposes are so entertaining.

Everything was kept hidden, as the Studio knew Clark was drinking .
