SXCLUSrVE NEWS DISPATCHES WILLAMETTE VALLEY NEWS by special correspondents MONDAY, AUGUST 14, 1933 2 HAROLD CLARK GORED BY BILL Silverton Harold Clark of the Waldo Hills community owes his life to the clear-headed action of his two brothers. Late Friday afternoon Harold's father told him to lead a Jersey bull kom a corral into the barn. The an imal had never shown signs of vl elousness and the boy took hold of the ring in its nose which seemed to anger the bull, and he attacked the boy, knocking him down and goring him from the back, stamp In? on him, injuring him critically, breaking a number of ribs and, it is feared, inflicting internal injuries. The two brothers, who were out side the corral, saw their brother's predicament and one jumped astride bull's back, threw his arms around its head, blinding it, and as he back ed away from his victim, the other brothers pulled the unconscious boy through the gate.
