OWES LIFE TO
QUICK ACTION

Jerry Flye of the local roundhouse
force of boilermakers owes his life,
his friends aver, to his agility in get
ting out of a fire box door of an en-
gine and as it is he was scalded
about the face and hands in an acci-
dent which happened Sunday even
ing. Charles w. Davis, better known
as Bug" Davis, tells the story of
Flye's escape and says that the boil
ermaker was in the firebox making
a few light repairs while the engine
still contained live steam, to a con-
siderable pressure.
He was working over patch when
one of the small rivet was blown in
by the steam, sending a deafening
deluge of steam into the firebox
where he was. Like a flash he real
lied his awful predicament and dove
for the door with hands pointed like
a diver and landed on his stomach
on the apron between the engine and
tender. The roar of the escaping
steam was so terrific that engine
could not be approached for some
minutes. Flye was scalded about the
face. according to Davis, but not bad
ly. His narrow escape was consid-
cred remarkable and due to his quick
thinking.
