child was carried down stream a
block before If was rescued. In
carrying the child ashore White
threw it across his shoulder and
this set released the water it had
swallowed. The youngster" was
taken into a nearby bouse and
cared for.

authorities to take out this
dangerous footbrldgo. School
children much prefer the danger
