Adrift In A Boat
Three small tots. namely Burton
Donovan and sister. Betty Jane, and
Billy Banning, on Saturday, were in
a dangerous situation. They were
playing on the shore of Lake Fan
ganzki with a toy boat, and when 1t
drifted away from their reach the
tots scrambled into a nearby row
boat and told Helena Donovan to
shove the boat from the shore. She
did but the painter, rotten bit Of
twine, broke and the boat and its
passengers drifted rapidly before the
wind. Sensing the danger her COM
panions were in, Helena ran home
and told her mother, who called for
help and rushed to the lake. There
was no other boat nearby so all they
could do was to watch the boat con-
tinue drifting. The father of the
Donovan children. when informed of
the plight of the tots, drove his car
rapidly to the west side of the lake
and waded out in time to catch the
boat as it passed a point of land.
The children we're almost frantic
from fear and it is a safe bet they
will stay away from the lake in the
future.
