DOCTORS TAKE WATCH
FROM THROAT OF BOY

PHILADELPHIA. THE bron-
%choscope, the magic little instru-
ment invented by DR.. Chevalier
Jackson, again saved a life when
all other known surgical methods
failed. The instrument extricated
a wrist watch from the bronchial
tubes of a four-year-old boy.
While at play, John Hanna, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert Hanna, of
Daretown, N. j., took the case off
of a small wrist watch and swal-
lowed the parts. The boy was
taken to the Salem hospital, where
an X-Ray picture showed the works
half way to the lads stomach.
Locates The Watch
The physician in charge said the
only way to save the boys life was
to rush him to the Jefferson hos
pital. Young Hanna vas brought
here shortly after midnight. New
Jersey state troopers escorted the
automobile and cleared the road
from Salem to Philadelphia.
The lad was placed on the operat-
ing table. In a short time the
bronchoscope had located the
works of the watch and pulled
them from the child's throat.
The watch, including the stem,
was an inch and a quarter in di-
ameter. Aside from being a little
weak from lack of food, the boy
is none the wors for his expert
ence.
