Save Drowning Boy

NJ. Barton, 10. while swimming in
Fore River at Stroudwater today,
was caught by the current and car
ried downstream. His battle against
the tide exhausted him and with a
cry for help he sank. Several of his
chums hurried to the spot where he
disappeared and as he came up
grasped him and took him to shore.
There they started to expel water
from Barton's lungs and resucitate
him. Their efforts were so success
full that when the police department
pulmotor arrived there was no need
for it.
