BRITISH COLUMBIA HERO

Before the eyes of scores of specta-
tors, two boy scouts of Vancouver,
b. c., Allen WoOton and Hamish Da-
wilson recently covered themselves
with glory by crawling out on the
treacherous melting ice of Coal Har-
Dor and rescued Bruce Mcintyre, the
fourteen-year-old son of Rev. r. ]. Nc
lntyre. The boy had been skating
and was about 200 feet out from shore
when without warning the ice gave
way, precipitating him into the water.
He made a game struggle to pull him
self out, but the ice was too rotten to
cling to. ,.'- =
Many people saw the boys plight,
but none dared venture out to his
rescue as the ice obviously would
bear no mans weight. Ladders were
run out. Even this improvised bridge
was precarious as by this time the
ice was breaking up on all sides. The
two scouts volunteered to attempt the
rescue, Davidson skating out as near
as he could to the ladder while Woo
ton crawled out on the ladder, drop
ping rope and another small ladder
behind him. Between them the res
cuers managed to push the extra lad
der under the drowning boy and pry
him to the surface of the ice. People
on the shore then hauled in the rope
and all three boys landed safely just
as the police arrived. First aid was
given young Mcintyre, and in the ex-
element the two rescuers slipped
away, nobody having even inquired
their names. Later, however, the
young heroes were sought out, though
they made light Of the incident and
would not permit their pictures to be
published until they secured the prom
Use that the fact they were boy scouts
should be mentioned and the chief
credit given to the organization which
had given them the training which had
enabled them to do the good turn. Both
boys have been scouts for over five
years. Davidson is troop leader of
the Fifth mountaineers and Kings
scout, a rank corresponding somewhat
to the Eagle of the Boy Scouts of
America. Wooton Is an assistant
scoutmaster of the Sixth Vancouver
troop.
