Suffers Burns
Richard R. Day, aged 11 years, son
of Mr. and Mrs. Charles T. Day, of |

treatment for severe burns about

The youth and a companion had
gone fishing near their home, and

can, partly filled with a liquid. They
applied & match to the liquid to de- |

burn. An explosion followed, the
flames causing severe burns to Day's
leg. Yesterday he was reported to
