Every Moment of Delay Is Serious

While the artificial respiration Is being
continued, have an assistant draw forward
the victims tongue, If it has fallen back
fortunately it usually falls forward when
the victim is face DOWN.. Hold the tongue
out If it tends to draw back, by wrapping q
handkerchief around it. The handkerchief
may also protect the assistants fingers from
being bitten. The assistant should also
loosen any tight clothing around the victims
neck, chest, or waist.
Do not permit bystanders to crowd about
and shut off fresh air. Keep the victim
warm with proper coverings and by placing
beside his body hot bricks, bottles, or rubber
bags filled with warm (not hot) water.
Wrap bricks, bottles, or bags 20 ~ to prevent
burning the victim.
Continue the artificial respiration Without
Interruption until natural breathing IL re-
stored, or for at least three hours. If natural
breathing stops after being restored, use arti-
fetal respiration again.
Do not eive any liquid BY mouth until the
Uictim is fully conscious. Keep the victim
fat If after being partly resuscitated he
must be moved, carry him on a stretcher.
1t is dangerous to make an i'll person, or one
injured in any way, sit up or stand. To
make him walk may cause his death.
The Seattle star. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1899-1947, 1918-05-20
Begin Artificial Respiration at Once

Lay the victim on his belly with his face to
one side 90 that his nose and mouth are free
for breathing. Place the victims arms and
hands exactly a. shown in figs. and 2, one
arm straight out beyond his head, the other
under his head. This position is important
as it helps to expand his lungs. In drowning
cases have the head little lower than the
body.
Kneel, straddling the victims thighs and
facing his head; rest the palms of your hands
on his loins Con the muscles of the small of
his back), with your thumbs nearly touching
each other and with fingers spread over his
lowest ribs (see fig. y.
With arms held straight, swing forward
slowly 90 that the weight of your body is
gradually, but not violently, brought to bear
upon the victim (see fig. p. This act should
take about two seconds.
Then, leaving your hands in place, swing
backward slowly as to remove the press
ure, thus returning for two seconds to the
position shown in figure l.
Repeat deliberately Is to 20 times min
ute the swinging forward and backward-a
complete respiration in about four seconds.
Keep the movements in time with your
breathing.

GAS ASPHYXIATION. - Remove the
victim from the poisonous atmosphere. If he
is still breathing administer oxygen from
tank with bag and mask for 20 minutes.
If he is not breathing and his jaws are locked
80 as to interfere with effective artificial
respiration, pry them open and wedge with
a piece of wood, and remove any foreign
body from his mouth. Then give artificial
respiration az shown below.

Send someone to shut off the current If the
victim is not breathing remove from his
mouth any foreign body. Then give arti-
fetal respiration as shown below.

THREE LEAGUES
FAIL TO START
OPENING GAMES
National, Delaware Shipyard, and
Allied Leagues Postpone All
Matches Scheduled Today

The three games scheduled for the
opening of the national cup tourney have
all been cancelled. Dsston's called
their game between Merchant "B" off,
due to big Liberty Loan rally and pa
rade at Tacony. Hog Island Cancelled
theirs with the Merchants a. team,
owing to not having a full team, and
were granted an extension TO sign play
ers by Secretary Cahll. Manager
Bowe, of the New York Ship, received
"A telegram from the Bethlehem steel
team, calling their game off. due to the
epidemic, and named october 26 for a
date to play the same off.
The Delaware River Shipyard League
game scheduled between the Sun Ship
and Harlan, was also cancelled. The
health authorities in Chester would not
permit the contest to be played.
Another league scheduled to open their
l9lS-19 season was the Allied League,
and, like the rest, several teams reported
they were unable to stage the games due
to illness of several of their players. al
though there is a possibility of at least
two or three OF the six clubs scheduled
getting their teams together today and
play off their first round.

MARINES FINISH
ALL THEY START
Football Team Learning to
Put on Steam for
Final Drive
HOLD SPEEDY PRACTICE

In every branch OF activity the finish
ing punch counts most. This asset has
been developed to perfection in the
United States marine corps. The
marines finish every thing they start
whether it is wiping out machine-gun
nest or "swabbing the deck" No job
is too big or too little for the Devil
Dogs to complete. This follow-through
| idea has been inculcated into the foot
ball team at League Island and is going
! to play an important part in the games
which BY Diclson's charges are sched-
! uled to play.
Time and again football followers can
recall that a team either has plowed
/ its way or carried the ball on forward
/ passes to the shadow of the goal posts
only TO lose it on downs because the
all-important final punch was lacking.
| a team on the defense usually stiffens
when its goal line ig threatened, conse-
quently the power of the offensive eleven
is taxed to a greater extent in its effort
to deliver the winning blow.
Wants Driving Strength
! To this phase of the game BY Dickson
| has paid special attention. He is drill
! ing his marines to muster exceptional
driving strength when the time comes to
use it, He figures that If a team can
carry the ball to the twenty-yard line,
| there is no reason why it should not
carry it the remaining distance.
With this end in view he had the men
/ out yesterday afternoon on the parade
ground speeding through signal drill and
finishing a good days work with a
scrimmage in which, the baclfield played
well together behind JEFF Dougherty S
much-improved line.
, Nillanova Game Of
Unfortunately. the game that was TO
have been played with the Nillanova
| eleven could not be staged because the
| Main Line institution is under "flu''
| quarantine. At the last minute Lieu
/ tenant Mcnamara was unable to get a
! team to play the Marines today, so
| there probably will be no regular con-
test before the Penn game on Franklin
Field next Saturday afternoon. During
| the coming week Dickson will send his
! team against one of the battleship elev-
ems that has been using the marines
| field This will put the team on edge,
! and If the men on the hospital list are
able to patch up their injuries the eleven
| will be in good condition for the contest
with the Red and Blue.
May Play Brown
on November 16 the marines prob
ably play Brown University on Frank
lin Field Penn was to nave played
Hcisman's Georgia Tech team but that
contest had been cancelled Penn was
very anxious to meet the Atlantans
again and get bit Of revenge for the
drubbing the Southerners handed them
last season. The score of that game
was Al TO and the bitter taste has
lasted long time in the mouths Of the
Penn players and followers.
II Brown comes here to meet the
marines il will prove to be one of the
biggest drawing cards of the year
Brown has a great team this year and
the contest win be speedy AFFAIR with
two well-drilled, powerful elevens play
ing
