Quick Cop Saves 20 Children From Runaway Truck

MON TREA L, R-A trailer truck loaded with telephone cable reels stalled on hilltop Friday and burst into flames. The driver jumped out, and the burning ve- hicle rolled backwards down the hill-directly toward 20 children and two nuns standing on street corner.
 Constable Leo Claude looked up from the bottom of the hill and saw the 1O-ton truck rolling down at Is mph. Il blew my whistle" he said. T guess that was instinct The truck was gath ering speed It was hard to tell it was truck It was just a ball of | flame"
 Children Just Stood The 20 children just stood there. Then the constable leaped in and scrambled them out of the way. A little girl fell over and he picked her up and carried her.
 The children and the nuns were visiting Montreal for the day from the Notre Dame De Merci Convent in Quebec city.
 Two explosions shot from the truck-the first on top of the hill and the second after the wheels struck the curb in front of the Quebec Hydro Building. Flames cracked windows on the buildings fourth floor. Bremen put out the fire in 20 minutes, but it took another hour to untangle the traffic jam
