Mrs. George Krepsky, 43, Colby, and her sister-in-law, Miss Margaret C. Krepsky, 49, who was a technician in charge of the laboratory at Milwaukee sanitarium at Wauwatosa, were killed Saturday morning when their car skidded into the path of another car on the wet, fog covered pavement of Highway 41, north of Fond du Lac.  
 

Louis E. Marks, 68, Oshkosh, driver of the other car, died of injuries shortly after he was admitted to a Fond du Lac hospital.  
 

Witnesses said that Miss Krepsky, en route to Colby for Christmas, passed a semi-trailer truck, and after her car had regained the right hand lane, it skidded across the center line and was struck broadside by the Marks’ car.
