One bystander - collapsed of a "heart attack."' i Accident victims were welded into the cars to make their rescue More difficult, and the fii'e different ambulance corps that re sponded were timed. The Ritenoar ambulance was first to respond, followed closely by the State College Alpha' unit. The Nittany Mall location was chosen by the drill's sponsors the Centre :County Ambulance Associaton and the Centre Com munity Hospital because it is a frequent location of accidents and because the heavy,traffic would make it a challenge. , . , The entire 'operation lasted aboUt an hour and 10 minutes from the time the accident calls were out until all the victim's were eithei treated or in hospitals.
