GR|NDS HIS
LEG THREE HOURS

ATLANTIC CITY, May .25.-The en-
CINE of a motor boat in which Louis
Loveland, of New Gretna, was gun
ming in Great Bay broke own yes
terday. and to make repairs more cas-
lily he sat down in front of the en-
CINE with his legs straddling Its base
and pressed against the fywheel.
1t took him half an hour to do the
work. Instead of rising and then turn
ing the engine over he remained seat
ed. In this position he swung the fly
wheel around. 1t Is believed he did
not think the engine would start. on
the first attempt, but 1t did. The n.y.
wheel caught the leg of his trousers
and dragged his limb into the Wheel
pit.
whirling wheel cut into the flesh and
wedged the leg in@- the pit. Loveland
was held there as if by a steel trap.
Persons on shore saw the boat dart
ing around eas If In a half-circle. They
supposed Loveland wal simply trying
the engine out after adjusting the
mechanism. All this time Loveland
was being tortured by the grinding Of
the fywheel against his flesh.
Finally after three hours two fisher
men chased the ~circling craft and board
ed it. They had to smash the engine
to extricate Loveland. He was landed
at the meadows and taken to a hospital
In an automobile. The surgeons be-
lieve they will have to amputate the
leg. 4ef
