        "text": "Conley Byrd Justice.\nThe front wheel came off a passing automobile and caused $253.90 damages to appellee U.C. Smith\u2019s building. Appellant St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company, for reversal of a summary judgment in favor of Smith, contends that Smith\u2019s building was not struck by a \u201cvehicle\u201d within the policy definition.\nThe policy issued by appellant of Smith provided extended coverage to Smith \u201c. . .against direct loss by. . .vehicles,. . .except as hereinafter provided.\u201d The provision of the policy applicable to vehicles provides:\n\u201cThe term \u2018vehicles,\u2019 as used in this endorsement means vehicles running on land or tracks. . .Loss by aircraft or by vehicles shall include only direct loss resulting from actual physical contact of an aircraft or a vehicle with the property covered herein or with the building(s) containing the property covered hereunder, except that loss by aircraft includes direct loss by objects falling therefrom. . .\u201d\nSince the policy insures only against\u2019'direct loss resulting from actual physical contact of. . .a vehicle,\u201d appellant argues that there is no indication of coverage for loss from damage by a detached wheel. As we read the language of the policy that \u201closs resulting from actual contact of . . .a vehicle\u201d obviously includes, at least, those substantial and integral parts of an automobile necessary to its propulsion while being propelled along a highway. See Annotation 12 A.L.R. 2d 598, as to meaning of \u201cVehicles\u201d within exception or coverage of insurance policies, icies.\nIn its reply brief appellant argues that the mention of detached objects with regard to airplanes, coupled with the lack of such mention with regard to vehicles, clearly implies that the policy provides coverage in the one case (airplane objects) but excludes coverage in the other (vehicle objects) which is here involved. The fallacy in this argument is that the policy language does not refer to items becoming detached from an airplane but only to objects falling from a plane. In view of such cases as Brown v. Life & Casualty Ins. Co., LA. App., 146 So. 332 (1933), this language was necessary to provide coverage for cargo falling from an airplane.\nAffirmed together with the allowance of an additional attorney\u2019s fee of $500.",
